Product Description

Details

At The Sleep Store we are passionate about helping new babies, children and parents get a betters nights sleep. Layers of Merino are an essential tool in helping our little ones sleep better during those cooler months, so we are delighted to have this high quality zipsuit as part of our Sleep Store Capsule Collection range.

The Capsule Collection is a range of 100% NZ merino clothing and sleepwear that celebrates the lush and luxurious natural fibre that is merino, with a selection of styles dedicated to baby's very first moments and first year.

The Sleep Store Jersey NZ Merino Print Footed Zipsuit features an easy to use double-ended zipper, so you can do night nappy changes without taking the whole suit off. They have zip guards in place to protect your little one from any accidents. An added bonus, is extra room in the hip area to allow for cloth nappies and chunky little bottoms. Made for sleep and perfect as a cosy layer under a sleeping bag. It also features feet to keep your little ones feet and toes nice and snugly warm!

This fabric is made from a single layer of 18.5 micron, 100% NZ Merino and is classed extra fine, meaning it is luxuriously soft and smooth against baby's skin. It has a comfortable stretch to it and with all our merino it is sure to retain it's beautiful shape. It is beautifully lightweight and packed with all the amazing properties of merino.

These cute zipsuits feature adorable Sleep Store exclusive prints designed by both our inhouse design team and local fabric designers.

We know some babies can get irritated by itchy fabric care labels, so our amazing production team have thoughtfully placed the care label on the side seam away from the neck area. It is a satin label which is super soft and small providing extra comfort for your baby. The beautiful NZ merino, unisex pieces in our Capsule Collection make the perfect gifts for new parents or parents-to-be. They are lovingly packed in an organic cotton organza drawstring bag with tissue paper ready for gifting.

Why do we love merino so much? Known as the 'miracle fibre' when it comes to infant sleep, merino wool is a naturally temperature-regulating and moisture wicking fibre. It will help to keep baby warm in winter but also cool in the warmer months without waking up clammy. It has the ability to naturally lock away odours, releasing them when washed or aired - this can mean less washing... yaye! Merino is also naturally fire retardant. Of course we recommend keeping your children well away from any heaters and fires ("a metre from the heater!") but merino is a naturally low fire danger fabric.

About our sizing
Our own brand garments follow the Australasian standard AS1182-1997 for sizing and are made with room to grow. Our size 2 clothing for example is made to fit the standard's average sized 2.5 year old comfortably.

Tips on how to measure your child

Height/Length - Our height measurement doesn't include a child's head and neck length. Standing straight with a flat foot measure from the base of the heel up to either the top of the shoulder. You may find it easiest for younger children to stand with their back to a wall to do this. Make a small pencil mark on the wall at either the top of the shoulder or head and ask the child to step away before measuring from the floor up to the pencil mark.

Chest - Place tape measure under the arms and measure around the chest at the fullest part until your fingers meet.

Arm - With arms down by the side and relaxed, measure from the wrist to the top of the arm before the shoulder curve. If you are unsure where the true shoulder curve starts, then gently place your flat hand (or another flat item like a ruler) on the shoulder and measure up to this point.

Hips - Measure below the waist at the fullest part of the hip bringing the tape measure round until your fingers meet.
Inside leg - With a flat foot, measure from the heel of the foot, up the inside of the leg to the crotch. Inside leg may sometimes be referred to as the inseam.

Please note - Measurements are taken when garments are laid flat. Areas such as chest, waist and hips are calculated at twice the width to get the full measurement.

Materials & Care

Materials

Merino sleeping bags, bedding, wrap blankets and clothing are easy to care for when following the correct guidelines. Please see our care instructions card included with your garment.

Materials	100% NZ Merino Wool (180 gsm) Woolmark Extra Fine - 18.5 microns Certified STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX
Care	Gentle machine wash or hand wash in cold or 30°C water with liquid wool wash Dry immediately - lay flat or hang dry

Care for your merino

As with many wool garments, you may experience a bit of pilling on this garment. Please note this is often due to a soft fibre such as merino rubbing against other fabrics, such as flannelette sheets. We consider pilling a normal part of wear and tear on a soft merino garment. We could have treated the fabric much more to reduce pilling but then it would lose its lovely, snuggly softness.

Please take care with moths

Protect your Merino from small holes created by insects such as moths and silverfish. Ensure your garments are clean before storing. Lavender and Cedar wood are noxious to these pests so storing your garments with these scents or a moth trap will help protect your knitwear further.

Love your Merino and it will love you back!

What are the major differences between The Sleep Store merino garments?

Jersey NZ Merino - Capsule Collection

This beautifully soft NZ merino has been chosen especially for our newborns. It is an 18.5 micron extra fine merino and is the lightest of all our merino at 180gsm. The feel is similar to our standard jersey merino. These garments are super smooth and very soft with a comfortable stretch to it. This is the only merino in our range which offers prints.

Jersey Merino

The jersey merino is super smooth and soft, feels like high quality t-shirt fabric and has a comfortable stretch to it - not as much as the deluxe merino rib. Great for all year round at 200gsm.

Deluxe Merino Rib

This is a rib knit meaning it's structure us made up of rows of stitching. This gives this merino a really beautiful stretch with cross grain elasticity. It is so soft and great for all year round at 220gsm.

Deluxe Merino Fleece

The most fluffy fleece softness on the inside, with a sweatshirt look on the outside, and most definitely the warmest of them all at 360gsm.
