Sloomb Love

Some of our stash.
I started seeing the Sloomb name last year. I read all the reviews, talked to Sbish loving mamas and decided to give it a try. Once we received our Income Taxes I took the plunge. I placed an order for two wool covers and 12 fitteds. Yes, that does seem like a lot when you haven't tried it yet! I couldn't wait to get them. Once I got my first shipment, I fell in love. The colors are so vibrant and the wool was so soft and squishy. I couldn't wait to wash our first fitted. As a matter of fact, I didn't. I put one on her right out of the box. To my surprise it was one of the most absorbent fitteds I have ever used. Once the wool was lanolized I found it was the best wool cover I have ever used. I then decided I needed to expand my stash. We ordered a couple of snapless fitteds and bamboo flats. What I love most about the Organic Bamboo Fleece Fitteds, the Snapless Fitteds, and the Flats are they are all bamboo. Bamboo is a natural fiber that is super absorbent. I was officially converted to a Sbish junkie!!! I needed more. In fact I have some on preorder.

The colors of all Sloomb products beautiful. They are so simple, but fun at the same time. The fitteds are natural colors with contrasting color trim. My favorites are squash, beeswax, chili and the new summer colors. I have watermelon and mermaid on order. The wool colors are the best. We currently have a squash, berry and natural wool cover, kirsche shorties and a pair of berry longies. Can't wait for Galactic longies for the fall. Not to mention all the flats we have. I also love the packaging because there is no packaging, instead the wool comes with plantable hang tags.

It was then that I had to try the one thing I haven't yet. LONGIES!!! I couldn't wait to get our longies. When they arrived I think I hugged them. Maya saw them and had to put them on right away. I actually put them on over a pocket diaper. The longies that Erin had sent us were a beautiful berry color. We have a cover in that color and love it. Once Maya let me take them off, I lanolized it right away. I have some longies from recycled sweaters but nothing this luxurious. Sloomb longies are made of oko-tex certified wool yarn and dyes. Since they are breathable they could be worn all year. It is currenlty 100* here in Chicago and Maya has been wearing them in the AC. Now the addiction just got worse. The fall colors have been released and are up for order. What do I do? I can only get one pair. I have even been finding all kinds of cute tops and dresses that will match the fall colors perfectly.

Sloomb longies are not only soft, squishy and beautiful, but they are also the most durable wool that I have ever seen. They are so pretty at times I don't want Maya rolling around in them. Then I remember they are so durable, even my 17 month old active baby can't ruin them. The wool is just the right thickness and weight. I love that Maya can crawl in her longies and not pick up every from the floor. Plus the berry color does hide any dirt that may have gotten on them.

What I love about Sustainablebabyish/Sloomb is that the company is run and operated by one mom. Erin is the heart and soul of the company. She is the one who will answer emails and Facebook, ship out your orders, and the right one to talk to if you need help. Thank you Erin for sponsoring this review. We love our longies.

I can go on and on about Sloomb. If you have any Sloomb, you know what I mean. If you haven't tried Sloomb products yet, you need to. Please visit Sloomb here. All of the wool longies for the fall are pre-orders only, so get your order in. Don't forget to throw in a fitted too.

  1. You were right, the colors are amazing! They are so simple, but so vibrant and fun. I love them all and can see where the addiction may come from!! If I had to choose just one I would choose the beautiful deep purple galactic. So girlie, yet neutral at the same time! I've been wanting to try wool covers since falling in love with fitteds (I too have a sloomb order hopefully shipping soon!). I like that they offer a natural barrier but are also so cute and breathable to keep skin healthy. Thanks for the review and giveaway, sloomb and cloth mommy!
