We use only the softest, 100% premium cotton. It is fully breathable, and super soft. Perfectly for delicate, tickly skin.

To maintain their premium, playful softness, we recommend machine washing our clothes in cold or warm water on a gentle cycle, followed by natural air drying.Only tumble dry on very low setting if absolutely necessary. This ensures the garment wears longer. https://uglybugsbabywear.com/how-to-care-for-100-cotton-baby-clothing/
