    Recommendations for "legs" to use with cute bottoms

    Having spent a ridiculous amount of money on some custom nappies, I'd like to get some legs so we can show them off. I've seen a few around - huggalugs for example - but would be really grateful for any recommendations from those who have used some as to what's good.

    Thank you lovely ladies.

    We bought babylegs for DD. She had a brace on 24/7 for months, and none of her clothes would go over it, so we'd pop a nappy cover over her and some babylegs. Loved the quality, we bought cheaper eBay no brand ones and they fell apart so quickly. We still have all of DD's babylegs after but all the cheap ones have been binned.

    I have a couple of pairs of huggalugs but have always found them way too tight for DD2. Just couldn't get them to stay up. Shame cos they were way too loose for DS.

    Thanks BG.

    Do they fit well with young babies, or not until they're toddlers?

    they fit Spock great, she is nice and chubby though. I use the OSFM on her legs, and even have a couple of 'newborn' size ones that I put on her arms. (because she has cute geek onsies that have short sleeves that i want to show off but sometimes it too cold for short sleeves =) )

    thanks T. Are the newborn ones ok on her legs too? Miss A has pretty scrawny chicken thighs ;-)

    Let me find and post a pic of DD at a few weeks old wearing the OSFM size, she was 8lb9oz at birth and they fit her well from the first wear until probably now.

    Eta so she was 10 days old

    Baby legs here too! Agoo if you can find them. Huggaluggs leg ruffles are good, but other Huggaluggs were too short for our future Olympic cyclist (loooong chunky legs)

    Cheapie knockoffs were okay for newbie days. But, yeah, didn't really last.

    Baby legs here. I found the huggalugs to be a much bigger fit.
    Inspired by Finn in the US used to have them really cheap and a massive range. They only took a week to get here.

    ok, we've got 10 sets that haven't been packed away - i know there are more - 7 normal baby legs, 2 super soft baby legs, and one set that i'm not sure exactly what brand (they came with an MCN and singlet set)

    ladybugs, neopolitan, cream supersoft, rainbow supersoft, black


    purple stars, watermelon, cream, watermelon, rainbow

    i know packed away somewhere we have black with silver stars (i think DH put them in my sock drawer by mistake lol) and cow print.
    most have never been worn. unfortunately the hole of a house we used to live in was so cold in winter DD needed to wear all in ones all the time - and so warm in summer, that she didn't need the legs covered.

    ETA - if you're interested, make an offer. I'm not sure what they're worth - at a guess maybe $10 or so?
