Bummies / Shorties

We use two premium fabric bases for our bummies depending on the season. The product title or fabric swatch will always tell you which fabric base the shorts is made from.

Both fabrics are soft, breathable and stretchy — perfect for busy babies and active toddlers.

Cotton Jersey – Lightweight & breathable
Perfect for spring and summer

• 95% cotton / 5% elastane
• OEKO-TEX® certified (safe for little ones)
• 210gsm

Our cotton jersey is soft, lightweight and breathable, making it ideal for warm days and everyday play. The added stretch allows little ones to move comfortably while crawling, playing and exploring.

French Terry – Slightly thicker & cosy
Perfect for autumn and winter

• 95% cotton / 5% elastane
• OEKO-TEX® certified
• 260gsm

French terry is a slightly thicker fabric that provides extra warmth while still being breathable and stretchy. It’s perfect for cooler days when little ones need a cosier outfit without feeling bulky.

Why we love these fabrics

Both fabric bases are carefully chosen because they are:

✓ Soft and gentle on sensitive skin
✓ Stretchy for comfort and movement
✓ Durable for everyday wear and washing

To keep your handmade romper looking beautiful:

• Wash inside out
• Use a delicate cycle
• Wash at max 30°C
• Use phosphate-free detergent

Avoid:

• Bleach
• Fabric softener
• Strong stain removers

Do not tumble dry.

Allow to air dry indoors or outside in fresh air.
