Wool & Silk Plain Long-Sleeved Vest Top

"Lovely colour red.
My son found these comfortable (he found Cosilana PJs too itchy). I don't think these are as soft and silky as Living Crafts, but prefer the colours.
I've put my son in Engel silk-wool since a baby. As these are not treated wool-silk, like Joha for example, I've shrunk a few by putting them on a cool machine wool wash, but with a spin (took me a while to work this out - just switch spin off).
Now I have learned - I wash rarely ;-) hang to air mostly - rotate with other PJs - and he wears an Engel vest under and Engel leggings as PJ bottoms with pants underneath ... It works in a cold house, looks cute in this colour and doesn't show the grub on the cuffs as much as ivory!"

This was washed... had to be careful

This was worn by... My very tall 5.5 year old.

Sizing: Feels true to size

I'd recommend this to a friend.

"Washes well. Soft against skin. Comfortable for layering over vest and under t-shirts during winter. We have more than one and they also make good pajamas with the matching pants."

"I bought two of these vests for my then 4 year old. He wore them every day all through last winter and is now back in them again. They are super comfy and very light and thin. My son hates wearing bulky clothes so they are perfect for him. I wash them on the cold wool wash cycle in my machine and they are absolutely fine. They don't need washing very often and dry really quickly. Highly recommended."

"It's great for layering over a vest for spring/autumn (or what passes for summer in the UK), and under a jumper in winter. My son has worn it most weeks for over a year now.

It also rarely needs washing, compared to his other cotton clothes. It's weirdly dirt-repellant and a little cold water dislodges everything from food to play-doh. It only needs washing when it no longer smells fresh after an airing overnight.

My only grumble is that the sizing runs quite small. We got a 104 size and my average-sized son wore it from the time he turned 2, and it's now running a little small for him at age 3."

"My son, who has eczema, wore this to Cub camp for two days and nights, worked brilliantly under his uniform during the (warm) days and great as pyjamas at night. It meant his skin stayed comfortable whilst the clothing was practical and attractive. Seems to have washed well fine, hope it will last until next years camp! Many thanks for lovely quality, soft and natural clothing."

"Underneath clothes and pyjamas, wish it had a higher silk content as it has become quite worn on the elbows...."
