Bossa Nova Slips Review: Not Worth the Hype

Disappointed with the Bossa Nova Slips for My Baby

summarizeEditor's Summary

I was super stoked to try out the Bossa Nova slips for my little one, but unfortunately, they didn't quite live up to my expectations. The fabric looked awesome, and I loved the design options, but the quality just wasn't there. I ordered four slips, all with inside seams and closed feet, one with a zipper, but the stitching was sloppy, and the material felt super cheap. I'm really disappointed, especially considering the price.

I'm sharing my honest review of the Bossa Nova slips I ordered for my little one.

I was drawn to this brand because of their wide range of sizes, up to 86, and the positive reviews on the marketplace. The fabric looked great, and I loved the design options. Who doesn't love a cute outfit for their baby?

I ordered four slips, all with inside seams and closed feet, one with a zipper. This was my first time buying clothes with inside seams, and I was excited to see how they'd hold up. I thought it'd be a great way to prevent those annoying loose threads.

The colors on the marketplace were lovely, from pastel to bright hues. Prices were reasonable, up to 700 rubles. I thought it was a fair price for the quality I was expecting.

My little one wasn't even crawling yet when we started wearing these slips, and they were still too big. I should've ordered a smaller size.

I washed them like any other clothes, without any special restrictions, as long as they came out clean. I mean, who needs special care for baby clothes, right?

As of my review, I've already gotten rid of two slips. One tore near the crotch, right through the fabric, and the other near the heel, not exactly at the seam. I was pretty disappointed with the durability.

We're still using the remaining ones, but it's unlikely they'll last long. I'm not sure how much more wear they'll get.

My neighbor also bought these slips for her child, who's a bit older than mine, and she loves them. Maybe our expectations were different, or the way we use them. Either way, it's clear they didn't work out for us.

I won't be buying these slips again. Something tells me they won't make it through one child, which is just too little. I need clothes that can withstand the wear and tear.

I do have one slip from Thailand that's been a game-changer. It's made of a thick material that withstands high temperatures, and the colors still look great after many washes. I wish I had bought more of those.

I have to admit, I regret buying these slips because they didn't impress me visually, but I took a chance on the quality, comfort, and high rating on the marketplace. In hindsight, I should've prioritized durability.

The good things about these slips are the clean cotton fabric, it doesn't wrinkle easily, and the colors are still vibrant. The material is medium-weight and soft. I appreciate the comfort aspect.

In my experience, kids' clothes should be more durable and long-lasting, so I wouldn't recommend these slips. They just didn't meet my expectations.
