Soft certified organic basics that wash well, at a higher price and with sizing that runs large.

What it does
A five pack of long sleeve baby bodysuits in ribbed organic cotton; reviewed here in place of the Simple Joys by Carter's gray and white 5 pack it resembles.
- Ribbed organic cotton certified to the GOTS standard
- Lap shoulders so the bodysuit can be pulled down over the body after a blowout
- Snaps at the diaper area for changes
- Solid and neutral colorways such as cloud, pink sand and midnight
- Works as a base layer under sleepers or as a stand alone top
A good fit for parents who want soft, certified organic cotton basics in neutral colors and are willing to pay more per piece for them. The main trade-off is sizing: several reviewers say the brand runs large, so a 0 to 3 month size may fit more like the next size up.
