Signature Merino-Cashmere Bodysuit - Sand

Merino-cashmere bodysuit — the first layer that works with your baby

A baby cannot yet regulate their temperature well during the first few months. Too warm or too cold — their little body has to work hard, and you notice it through restlessness or poor sleep. This fine-knit bodysuit made from 90% Merinowool and 10% cashmere takes care of that work. Merinowool breathes, insulates and wicks away moisture; cashmere makes the bodysuit just that little bit softer. So there is exactly one clever layer between your baby’s skin and the world.

Designed from experience with the tiniest babies

Daniëlle, founder of Moalie and a neonatal nurse with almost 30 years of experience, consciously chose Merinowool as the foundation of the Moalie collection. Not because it sounds appealing, but because wool as a first layer helps a baby stay at a comfortable temperature — and a baby who is at the right temperature is calmer.

"On the ward, I saw every day how much calm a stable temperature brings to a baby. A little body that does not have to fight against cold or heat has energy left for growing and sleeping." — Daniëlle, founder of Moalie & neonatal nurse

Why this bodysuit?

90% Merinowool, 10% cashmere

Merinowool has a much finer fibre than regular wool: soft, flexible and itch-free. The addition of cashmere makes the knit extra light and soft — a bodysuit you will keep reaching out to touch.

Regulates temperature and moisture

The wool fibre insulates when it is cold and wicks away heat and moisture when it gets warmer. This keeps your baby’s skin dry and comfortable — indoors, outdoors, in a baby carrier or under a sleeping bag.

Wooden buttons — at the shoulder and crotch

The wooden buttons at the shoulder create a wide neckline, making dressing a calm experience. The bodysuit also fastens with wooden buttons at the crotch — a natural detail that complements the other materials. Changing remains easy, even in the middle of the night.

Sand — warm sand

Sand is a warm, light sandy shade. Natural and unisex — beautiful on its own and wonderful combined with clove, cream and rice flower from the Moalie collection.

The foundation for every outfit

Wear the bodysuit on its own or as a first layer under trousers, a cardigan or a sleeping bag. Together with Moalie’s other merino essentials, it forms a layette that lasts all year — and can then be passed on to another baby.

Frequently asked questions

Does Merinowool not feel itchy against my baby’s skin?
No. Merinowool has a much finer fibre than regular wool, and the 10% cashmere makes the bodysuit extra soft. The fabric feels supple and can be worn directly against the skin — even with sensitive baby skin.

Isn’t a wool bodysuit too warm indoors?
No. Merinowool regulates temperature: the fibre insulates when it is cold and wicks away heat and moisture when it gets warmer. This makes the bodysuit suitable for year-round wear — indoors and outdoors.

How often should I wash the bodysuit?
Less often than you might think. Merinowool is self-cleaning and barely absorbs odours. Airing it out is usually enough. Wash on the wool cycle (max. 30 °C) with a wool detergent.

Which Size should I choose for my baby?
Size 50/56 fits from birth to approximately 3 months, 62/68 from 3 to 6 months and 74/80 from 6 to 12 months. Not sure? Choose the larger Size — knitted Merinowool is supple and grows along with your baby for a little longer.

How do I put the bodysuit on easily?
The wooden buttons at the shoulder create an extra-wide neckline, so you can gently slide the bodysuit over your baby’s head. The wooden buttons at the crotch make changing easy — even at night.
