Organic cotton is grown without the use of chemical fertilisers and is healthier for the environment. The reduced processing of the cotton also results in a longer-staple, higher quality cotton that is softer on your skin.
Included in the organic certification are standards that ensure the welfare of those involved in the farming and production of the clothing, so that you can be assured that nobody has been exploited along the way.
You will feel the difference in quality when you touch organic cotton - it's something that gives us pleasure to handle here at Cambridge Baby, and you know that it's safe for your baby and gentle and nurturing for your family.
A small amount of shrinkage may occur in the first couple of washes, but the clothes are made slightly bigger to accommodate this. Air dry, and re-shape while damp if necessary.
To help all your clothes last longer, always air dry rather than tumble dry.
To reduce calcium build-up which can contribute to a hardening of your clothing, add a little vinegar to your rinse cycle.
"This is probably the most hilarious product review I've written. These were intended for my son, but he refused them due to the fact that they are not boxers. Not wanting to send them back as I fell in love with the material, I decided to try them on myself, and was pleasantly surprised that they fit me perfectly! I'm a petite woman and these are just so comfortable and nice to wear, the largest size. You just need to have quite thin thighs to wear these as an adult, and they are perfect. The material is so soft but sturdy and the seams are well made. They are also not too tight at the waste band. I would say they would have been perfect for my 12 year old too, if he wouldn't be so finicky about the type of pants that he likes to wear. :)"

Sizing: Feels true to size
I'd recommend this to a friend.
"Various sizes of these superb organic cotton pants have served my son well for many years. They wash and dry beautifully, hold their shape and remain soft wash after wash. There is no chaffing or rubbing and no seams to aggravate the skin even during sport. He never mentions them...and that is a great thing from a son that used to be fussy about labels and socks!"

"We thought buying plain, organic cotton underwear for a toddler was a straightforward affair. How naive we were. Needless to say we're not big fans of crazy colourful tractor and bus motifs and these pants were... shock and horror... the only product online we liked. The quality of the cotton is superior and doesn't change after a few washes. The design is great too. We've even gone back to buy a second batch. Highly recommended!"
