The models of pajamas and sleepsuits are not so varied, but one of these models is noticeably different from the rest. This Kigurumi - pajamas in the shape of animals, cartoon characters and other characters. They came to us from Japan. Their appearance bears little resemblance to pajamas; rather, they are a onesie with fastenings on the stomach, long sleeves and a hood in the shape of an animal's head.
REFERENCE: Kigurumi is Japanese for full-body animal costumes used by costumed performers..
Initially they were used for performances and other entertainment events. Classic onesies were made of thick material, and the head was made removable and huge. Little by little, onesies moved into the category of home wear. For such products, soft fleece is used, and the voluminous head is replaced by a hood with an image of an animal’s face.
What are the features and advantages of such pajamas?
Today, Kigurumi pajamas are becoming increasingly popular.Thanks to the use of soft materials, they give their owner incredible comfort and warmth, which allows you to relax and get a good night's sleep. In addition, the funny faces of animals will make anyone smile.
Manufacturing materials
Soft, breathable materials are used to sew onesies. Most often it is thin fleece, flannel or corduroy. The materials used are hypoallergenic, so they will not harm even delicate baby skin.
Special purpose
If classic onesies were used in performances, modern ones have found wider application.
First of all, these are pajamas. Soft, warm and comfortable, they can be worn naked. These pajamas will not restrict your movements and will allow you to get a good night's sleep.
In addition, they were chosen by many athletes. Snowboarders and skiers wear them over their ski suits, which provides them with additional warmth and positivity.
And of course, onesies have not lost their original purpose. They are often found at performances, animation events and parties, including pajama parties.
What to look for when choosing
Kigurumi is considered unisex clothing. It is not divided into male and female models. There are even no age restrictions when choosing such pajamas.
The main thing you should pay attention to when buying onesies is the material. The most common and highest quality is fleece. It is soft, bright, hypoallergenic, and holds its shape well. The thicker the fleece, the better the pajamas will look. But the price for models made of dense material is higher.
An alternative to fleece is velsoft. It is cheaper, and suits made from it are less bright and do not hold their shape as well. However, it is very soft and pleasant to the touch.
It is also worth paying attention to the presence of applications. Ideally, they should be sewn on, since glued ones come off after several washes, which can ruin the whole look.
IMPORTANT: It is better to wash such products in a washing machine, using a delicate cycle at a temperature of no more than 30 degrees. Do not bleach or iron them.
How to choose a size
There are tables for the relationship between height and size of onesies. But the best way to determine the size is to try it on. An important feature is that there is no way to adjust the length of the pants, since this is a jumpsuit. These pajamas have a very loose fit, and if you choose the wrong size, you can simply get confused in them and not appreciate all the benefits.
Model selection
When choosing a model, you need to focus only on your own preferences. Along with the classic options with long pants and sleeves, there are also lightweight onesies. They have the same name, but have short sleeves and shorts instead of trousers.
ATTENTION: It is worth paying attention to the presence of tails, wings and ears. Although all manufacturers claim that they do not restrict movement at all, some people still find it difficult to sit or lie down.
