Dungarees in Organic Merino Wool
£33.50
"I love these beautiful dungarees for my baby girl. The pink ones are a lovely plum colour that get so many lovely remarks from people. They are very soft after a first hand wash and so warm in the winter. They are nice and roomy which allows lots of moving around and I cross the straps at the back to make them less baggy and fit better. I shall definitely be purchasing more in larger sizes for next winter!"
This was washed... I wash them on a wool wash in the washing machine, which is fine.

"People always comment on how sweet my daughter looks in them and they're such an easy every day outfit. I did have to move the buttons up an inch because the straps kept falling down but it was a quick (5 minute) job. Having a jumper underneath also helps to anchor the straps on. They seem to resist stains pretty well. I have only hand washed them a couple of times and they are still clean looking despite my daughter eating lunch in them at least once a week. I got them in grey because I thought neutral would be more versatile but I've got my eye on a brighter colour for next time. I found they needed depilling after a few months but came up like new. They're a great toddler wardrobe work horse."

"I have a mixed review for the red wool disana dungarees. They are warm and lovely. After a few washes though they do grow, which means that they puddle round my baby ankles now and pull down when she crawls. I love how they come up and keep the kidney area warm. We have found that they pull easily and make a hole. I have mended two of these already. Still love the colour. would suggest a double knit or closer knit to increase durability. Also the shoulder straps would work better for us if they didn't stretch longer! I am going to make some grosgrain ribbon ones for mine. I can see that these will work well inside her snowsuit when winter comes and they are very soft. Hmmm a mixed review!"

"Hi Jessica,
You might find these work better for your child. You still get the warmth and breath-ability but boiled wool doesn't pull or stretch in the same way that knitted things can.

"These have been worn by son as both a bottom shuffler and toddler - they are superb - we have a cold hard floor and they give plenty of padding and warmth. Nice and stretchy so don't impede movement and being dungarees there's no cold gap. Only sad thing is that we keep catching them on things and have to repair - but easy to fix and rib knit means hard to see repairs."

"These are great - super warm and comfortable - and really practical. A friend of ours has had them for both her kids and she says they wash and last really well. We love this brand anyway - great quality. The size is big (as all Disana clothes seem to be) - but they work a bit too big (or a bit too small)."

"I have these in several colours and sizes and have used since my eldest son was about 4 months, he is now 5 and his dungarees are being used by my youngest, now 10 months, having been used and added to in the interim and by my middle son, now 2! They are hard wearing, they stay on (without slipping over feet). Yes, they need to be wool washed, however I have this cycle on my machine and so is not too much hassle! Well worth it for cosy babies who are able to do all the exploring, crawling, cruising and playing they like whilst warm as toast in hard wearing dungers!"
