The cuffed shorts are such a great fit on my little one. He is 23 months and we order the youth size to have that added inseam and they fit him like crops now and will grow into shorts overtime which is amazing! I enjoy the cuffed options and these are very flattering on my little one and fit great over his cloth diapers but I know will still be flattering after he is out of them too.

These cuffed shorts are super cute. I absolutely love the option to add cuffs to our shorts and pants – helped when my son was crawling a ton. I don’t have a photo on the body but I do particularly love the room my son has in these and the knee protection.

Your question will be answered by a store representative or other customers.
Note that all of our bottoms are based on the same “bum” which means that all the shorts, crops and pants in the size have the same top portion. So once you find the right Hip, Rise and Waist that will work, you can just choose your style. Scroll down to find help to measure.
A really easy way to measure is to use existing pants that fit well. They don’t move around nearly as much as a squirmy baby!
The rise of a diaper is the same when off or on a baby
Night-time diapers are usually bigger, so it is a good idea to take that into account
Check our chat group on Facebook. You will probably find someone with similar measurements or sizing to chat with and get ideas.
The wool is stretchy and forgiving. We have siblings sharing the same clothes at the same time that are months/years apart in age.
We don’t put general ages for our sizes, because so often they are way off anyways. Most of our clients are using Cloth Diapers as well, which changes the bum sizes a lot between diapers, so it would just make it even more confusing.
I personally remember doing the parent clothing the baby math. “My child is 8oth percentile, age 8 months, so that means 12 to 18 months should fit, but because I am using cloth diapers I will get 24 months and make sure it has button elastic at the waistband.”

Age Guide
Baby Age Bottoms
Designed for Cloth Diaper usage. All of our Merino Wool Bottoms are a fully functional Cloth Diaper Cover. Our Baby Sizing has a generous cut in the rise to accomodate bulky diapers in the front and back.
Youth Age Bottoms
Designed for people out of Diapers. They still function as a cloth diaper cover, altered to have a lower rise in the front than our baby fit. They are cut more like standard classic bottoms since there is generally less bulk in the front. However, many of our clients, especially those with more trim diapers prefer this design.
Check the sizing charts for more detailed information to assist your choice.
Note - Most of our bottoms are based on 20 different "bums"
Baby or Youth
The same hips are on both; youth has a shorter rise and generally longer inseams.
Standard, Slender and Wide
Slender is generally 2″ narrower than Standard. Wide is generally 2″ wider than standard. Or next size up or down in the hips
XS, S, M, L, XL
Each size generally gets wider and taller by 2″
We have over 3000 patterns based from these 30 “bums.” All the shorts, crops and pants in size have the same fit from the waist to thigh. As an example Baby Standard Small have the same top portion in Digs, Euros, Tapered Pants or Straight Pants. So once you find your fit, you can just choose your styles without measuring again.
We recommend pre-dissolving it before adding to the machine
We recommend Washing with Unicorns
Doesn’t that sound like a dream? Well lets make it a reality. We have partnered with Unicorn Laundry Care products because they are the best product I have found for our wool. Find a retailer near you or in our shop.

And rinse some more
Our wool is thick and soft and likes to hold fluid. Which means it will hold onto soap and detergent unless it is rinsed and washed well. So we highly recommend using not only very little soap, but also to rinse well.
Unicorn Beyond Soft in a natural Fabric Conditioner. It helps keeps the fibers soft and healthy.
WASH

Step 2 Add wool to your washing machine
Step 3 Add dissolved detergent to the dispenser
Step 4 Turn on washer to Cool setting (use wool setting or lower spin)
RINSE
Do a secondary rinse cycle, aka rinse and spin with pre-dissolved Beyond Soft Conditioner.
We also recommend doing this every so often to refresh your wool between washes. It removed light soiling and neutralized salts
Why Bumby Wool?
Tempurature
Wool has been used for centuries in all climates. It keeps you warm in the winter and cool in the heat. Reducing night sweats and rashes
Breathable
Wool is a naturally breathable fiber reducing rashes and keeping baby dry.
Pre-shrunk
Our in-house proprietary dyeing process not only gives us stunning colours but also pre-treats the wool making it machine washable.
Handmade
We had craft every item in our workshop. Each item is lovingly cut and sewn by our team. We appreciate your business and love doing what we do.
Super absorbent
Wool sops up humidy and moisture and it also repells it. Its called a miracle fiber by many. The lanolin helps the wool repel fluids back to the diaper, then as it becomes too much it absorbs a tremendous amount before feeling damp.
Adorable
Our stuff is adorable. It really is. Come join our Flock and you can see all of the custom made items we have made over the years. Our brand is more than clothing, its about family.

Lanolin is a naturally occurring wax found in wool fiber. It is cleaned out of the wool during processing the fibers for fabric and yarn. We only use the purest pharmaceutical grade lanolin. Lanolin conditions the wool fibers and gives the waterproof protection we love about wool. Lanolin also increases the wool’s anti-bacterial properties to help your diaper cover self-clean between uses and naturalize urine.
Use our Emulsion Blocks to create a lanolin rich bath to reintroduce this amazing natural goodness into your wool. Click the rest of the tabs for more information on how to use them.
You can also use our pre-emulsified Ready to Use Lanolin Blend to make it even easier! Made with all natural ingredients to take away the guesswork. Super rich, with at least 25% lanolin in the mixture.
