Tights with braces for babies + children: merino, teddy + organic cotton
Classic tights quickly slip down on crawling babies. That is why all models in this category have braces that go over the shoulders and keep the tights in place. They are made by Silly Silas in the Czech Republic.
How warm should they be?
For indoors and the in-between seasons, the organic cotton tights with braces are enough, in plain colours or with stripes, checks and patterns. Warmer are Teddy Warmy and Granny Teddy with a cosy teddy knit in organic cotton, as well as the Hippy line. The warmest are the Wooly merino tights made of 59% merino wool and 41% organic cotton, for example in Cappuccino or Espresso Brown: merino keeps warm in the cold and balances temperature when it gets warmer indoors. If your child is outdoors in winter, the tights are worn as the bottom layer under trousers or a snowsuit. Our guide to layering shows how to build up the layers. Why wool works so well is explained in our comparison merino wool or cotton.
With or without feet?
Footed models keep the feet warm too and replace socks. Footless versions end at the ankle and are worn like leggings, barefoot or with separate socks. The Short tights with braces complete the range.
Combining + care
Under dresses and skirts, with shorts or on their own at home: tights with braces are easy to combine. You will find matching pieces under skirts + dresses. Wash the organic cotton tights at 30 degrees so the ribbed knits keep their shape and colour for longer. For the Wooly merino tights, follow the care instructions on the label.
