Baby footies

Baby footies are one of the most thoughtfully designed garments in a child’s first wardrobe. They are often the very first item to wrap tiny feet, which places high demands on materials, fit, and overall feel. At Livly, every pair of baby footies is created with a focus on softness, comfort, and a timeless aesthetic that harmonises with the rest of the collection.

The design is clean and calming, featuring soft colour tones that are easy to combine with other baby garments. The footies are designed to feel just as natural during everyday moments as during rest, with a flexible fit that allows the baby to move freely without compromising on comfort.

Soft materials for sensitive baby skin

When it comes to baby footies, material choice is essential. A baby’s skin is far more sensitive than an adult’s, making natural and exclusive materials the obvious choice. Pima cotton is used in several of the footies and is known for its exceptional softness and high quality. The cotton is hand-picked, ensuring that only the finest fibres are selected. The result is a fabric that feels gentle against the skin and is especially suitable for newborns and young children.

For cooler days, there are also footies made from cashmere — a natural material that combines lightweight warmth with a soft and airy feel. Cashmere gently wraps the foot and helps maintain an even temperature without feeling heavy. This makes it ideal for baby garments where comfort must always come first.

A comfortable and secure fit

An important part of well-designed baby footies is that they stay on the foot without feeling tight. The fit is therefore carefully shaped to suit the form and movement of small feet. Soft cuffs around the ankle help keep the footies in place, while remaining flexible enough not to feel restrictive.

This thoughtful construction ensures that the footies work just as well when the baby is moving as when resting in a stroller or in a parent’s arms. Parents can feel confident that the footies remain comfortable throughout the day and do not interfere with the baby’s natural movement.

A timeless addition to the baby wardrobe

Baby footies are often one of the first garments introduced into a child’s wardrobe, which makes durability and timeless design especially important. Livly’s design philosophy is based on longevity rather than short-lived trends, allowing the footies to be worn often and for a long time — and frequently saved or passed on.

The knitted textures and soft surfaces create an exclusive look that feels carefully considered down to the smallest detail. The footies are designed to complement other baby garments and contribute to a harmonious wardrobe where every piece has its place.

More than just footies

As the child grows, their needs may change. In addition to classic footies, there are also soft baby shoes that offer slightly more structure while maintaining the same focus on comfort and softness. These are adapted for small feet and are ideal for calm indoor moments, when the baby needs a bit of extra protection without restriction.

Regardless of the choice, the core idea remains the same — footwear should feel gentle, secure, and beautiful in its simplicity.

Pima cotton has longer fibres, which create a softer and more exclusive material that is particularly suitable for baby garments.

Do baby footies stay on the feet?

The footies are designed with soft cuffs and an adapted fit to stay in place without feeling tight, even when the baby moves.

When are baby shoes a better choice than footies?
