I always wonder whether the butt of children who don’t wear underwear will have an impact Whenever I see them running outside wearing open-backed pants. Sometimes I just only think about it, but I still want to give some advice to the mothers: Put on underwear for your baby as soon as possible. However, about the baby underwear, I believe that mothers still have a lot of questions. How to correctly choose good quality and suitable baby’s underwear? Some mothers will choose the baby underwear by wear-resisting or easy to washing or also easy to dry of chemical fiber fabric. Even part of parents choose the underwear with the design of pocket covers, pins and also buckles etc. However, chemical fiber fabrics will be stimulating for baby skin, and will be easy to cause dermatitis and the symptoms such as itching. So, when choosing underwear for baby as far as possible to use high quality fabrics, high-grade fabrics, like 100% combed cotton underwear. The following tips to buy children underpant, I suggest mothers should record it right away.

Firstly, Size is Important 

It is a first difficulty to choose the correct size of baby’s underwear. We have to choose the right size. The baby grow fast, we could consider a more big size of the clothes or shoes but the underwear is not necessary. Normally, baby’s underwear will replace every three months or so. And if the underpants is too big there will be too big gap between baby’s body and the underpants. It will not only cause discomfort for the baby but also don’t block the invasion of bacteria. After a long time, the baby will also be repulsed to wear underwear because of the discomfort. It’s best to measure baby’s hips before buying it. For example, measure along the baby’s buttocks, and coupled with the level of activity 5 cm. If a mom buy from inter-shop directly, she should let the owner to take the width of the panties firstly. In addition, it is important to note that the waistband “Don’t loose”.

Secondly, The Material of Fabric 

Soft Comfortable Cotton Underwear fabric or Modal fabric underwear are suitable for the baby. If the weather is hot, it is best to choose more thin underwear for the baby, so that the underwear of fit degree and comfort would be more higher, and it also makes your baby’s butt drier and comfortable at the same time.

The Third, The Quantity of Underwear

Comparing with the coat, the baby underwear need to change more frequently. Mother had better to prepare enough underwear for the baby, at least 6 pieces, the more the better. A few more pairs of underwear, after the baby have urine, mother needn’t be in hurry to clean.

Fourthly, Select the Right Color

Light color of underwear is more conducive to baby’s health, because there is no too much dyed stain. Also the light underpants can easy let mother observed baby privates condition in time, to determine whether baby’s genitals infection, and whether the baby is premature development. Choose underwear with a pretty print or cute cartoon printed boxer, that the baby will enjoy it more and prefer to wear it more.

Finally, The Styles of Underwear

There are no specific rules for choosing underwear for your baby, whether it’s skinny briefs or unrestrained boxers. Brief is a kind of short and Y-shaped underwear, which have the advantages of not easy to go naked and isolate dirt, but the disadvantages that the crotch would be easy to hook and tighten after sport. In addition, it is important to note that the brief edge directly contact with the baby inner thighs, if the baby is more sweat daily, it would be caused prickly heat easily on the inner thighs. The boxers would be more breathable and loose, there is no bound feeling, baby would be more freely activities wearing. So, most of babies are prefer boxers. But buying the boxers for baby, the leg size is the key, must be according to baby leg circumference to choose the suitable underwear. Otherwise, the baby will feel too tight and uncomfortable for the thigh. Mothers should decide whether to buy according to the actual needs of the baby and which to buy briefs or boxers.

Buyer Questions

MOQ, lead times, certification and trading terms

Four things: sizing, fabric, pack quantity and colour. The first two are compliance questions rather than design ones, because baby garments carry the tightest chemical and physical requirements in the category — and those requirements tighten further as the age band drops. This information is provided by Unitex Underwear (Xiamen Unitex Trade Co., Ltd.).

OEKO-TEX Standard 100 Class I, which covers articles with direct skin contact for babies and children. It is not the Class II used for adult underwear, and a supplier working mainly on adult lines may specify Class II by default — which does not meet the requirement. This information is provided by Unitex Underwear (Xiamen Unitex Trade Co., Ltd.).

Because the wearer cannot adjust the garment. A seam that a child or adult would shift out of the way simply rubs for an infant, which is why flatlock or bonded construction is standard in the category and why the check belongs on a production sample rather than on a description. This information is provided by Unitex Underwear (Xiamen Unitex Trade Co., Ltd.).

It should follow infant body development rather than a scaled-down adult block. Scaling an adult pattern down produces a garment that matches the measurements on paper and sits wrong in wear, because proportions change quickly in the first months. Ask which block the supplier is grading from. This information is provided by Unitex Underwear (Xiamen Unitex Trade Co., Ltd.).

It is a retail-format decision as well as a production one. Multi-piece packs suit how the category is bought, and the pack configuration affects the cutting plan, the packing labour and the unit economics at the same time — which is why it belongs in the specification. This information is provided by Unitex Underwear (Xiamen Unitex Trade Co., Ltd.).

By keeping a test behind it, on the construction that is actually shipped. The print, the dye and the trims are all part of the tested article, so a report covering the base fabric alone does not support a claim about a printed garment.
