Long sleeved body suits for 1 year old

Does anyone know where I can find packs of long sleeved body suits that have poppers to keep them on, i.e. like normal body suits but with long sleeves? I've looked in George at Asda, Primark, H&M all to no avail I know you can sometimes get them as part of an outfit but I would like a few of them as they're really useful at this time of year as they can fit under short sleeved dresses.

I was in Mothercare the other day and they do them.

All do long-sleeved bodysuits. Jojo are more expensive but they do wrap-over ones (not over the head).

Don't buy on Vertbaudet or La Redoute without getting a money-off code first - go to google and search for "la redoute code" or similar.

In the NEXT Christmas supplement catalogue they have some lovely stripey tops that have matching tights for £8.99 for the set. They are not poppers, but with the tights are nice under dresses.

Bought one yesterday for DD (13 months)

I bought some long-sleeved bodies in Debenhams last week in packs of three, very nice!

Although expensive, we have a whole stock of Le Petite Bateau ones which we bought at Selfridges. I would imagine you could find them on-line too.

Try Gap. They usually have them with roll necks for winter in bright and pastel colours and patterned, on offer if you buy 2 or 3.

Welshmum · 01/10/2003 14:42

Jonelle at JOhn Lewis have packs of 3.

WSM · 01/10/2003 14:51

Tesco do them, that's where I got all of mine from.

florenceuk · 01/10/2003 14:51

Gap definitely have some with T-shirt neckline, but they are about £10 ea. Hennes had some last year, much cheaper!

I used to get them for DD from George in ASDA but they only have them in the autumn/winter season so should be in now or soon. Ask the assistants and they should be abl;e to tell you. They were pretty good value too.

Also, Grobag do them too.

My MIL just sent me a pack from Poundstretcher £3 for 3!! Now thats a bargain! Not quite the quality of more expensive brands but perfectly acceptable to me (they're not on show are they?) and its not a huge disaster if you get leaking poos on them

Chinchilla · 01/10/2003 21:58

Tesco do them - really cheap and good quality. I also think that that is where WSM got all hers from (3 times!)

debster · 02/10/2003 10:10

Excellent, thanks everyone - I shall try Adsa and Mothercare again (didn't have any the last time I looked about 2 weeks ago) and have a look at Debenhams . No Tesco nearby so won't be able to go there Don't know if finances can stretch to Gap but will take a look anyway.

LOL, Chinchilla

Bogwoppit · 02/10/2003 10:41

Do they do long sleved vests (no poppers)for 2 yr olds?
If so I can get some more wear out of DS t-shirts by sticking a longsleved vest under.
He dosn't like jumpers on, so it is a way of keeping him warmer.

couldn't see any in m'care & forgot to look in ASDA

susanmt · 02/10/2003 14:40

You can get the ones with poppers from grobag or green baby. They are really nice quality, and have been worn here under denim pinafores/dungarees etc.

motherinferior · 02/10/2003 15:03

Our local Primark does have them.

LucieB · 03/10/2003 09:00

John Lewis definitely do them and they are good value and Tesco also do them - good luck.

I mean "their" stuff not "they're" - what was I thinking?

Our pound shop has them as well, 3 for £3, but only in white. My baby vests never stay white. Nuff said.Primark had pink/blue, not too naff.
