Disana's GOTS certified organic standard is so high that even oils that lubricate knitting machines have to be analysed. Disana's whole garment (not just the yarn) is certified as organic, so that you can be assured that their dyes are baby-safe, eco-safe and that all cotton threads and finishes are natural too.
All certified organic wool comes from sheep which have been farmed organically and with high animal welfare standards. At Cambridge Baby we always make sure that no wool comes from farms which practise mulesing.
Please note that under EU labelling regulations, stating the type of wool is not allowed, only a statement of "100% wool" or "new wool" is allowed. However, this garment is organic Merino wool.
The Merino wool fibre is very fine, soft and springy and is not itchy at all to most skins. The Merino sheep usually thrives in mountainous areas at high altitudes and its wool is naturally brilliant at keeping the body comfortable at a wide range of temperatures. Wool (and thus Merino wool) has many benefits.
Merino wool is the wool of choice for baby and children's clothes, as well as for sportswear, because it's finer than most other wools. It's naturally springy (which makes it softer) and has a tight crimp, allowing it to trap more air, making clothing lighter as well as softer for the same excellent insulation.
Merino wool has also been proven to absorb UV across the whole range of the spectrum, giving excellent lightweight sun protection in the summer too.
"My baby boy wears these dungarees nearly every day, we bought them in grey, which goes well with so many of his vests and cardigans, and they have had many compliments from friends. More importantly, they are warm and allow for lots of movement and though initially the wool seemed slightly rough, after a month of wear they are deliciously soft. There is still a lot of room for growth and I can see them lasting a few more months. I regularly air them outside, which freshens them up well without need for washing. I will definitely be buying a pair for him next autumn. All in all, perfect. Would love them to be available in adult sizes too!"

"Warm and cozy , hard wearing. Extremely easy to shrink in the wash - we're on our second pair now, but definitely operator error ! Cold hand wash only. Otherwise excellent."

"I bought these dungarees for my grandson because my granddaughters had some and they were wonderful. It was time to move from navy blue to bright red even though the old ones still have a lot of wear left in them."
This was washed... Follow the directions and it washes very well.

"These really are gorgeous, super cute looking, comfortable and wash well in the machine. They are now being worn by my second child and still look great, my boys are very tall so the sizing is about right for them so thats why I put generous in the sizing option."
This was washed... washed fine
This was worn by... My 20 month son and now my second son at 10 months (no shrinking occured)
Sizing: A little generous
