This Just In: Kicky Pants Seasonal Sets

Today we want to introduce you to some seasonal selections from one of our favorite brands, Kicky Pants. Kicky Pants are always a staff favorite because they are made from bamboo, which feels incredibly soft and luxurious and has a natural wicking ability that will help keep baby warm, dry and odor free. At just $36 for a long sleeved shirt and coordinating pants with adorable detail on the leg, these sets are sure to be your child's favorite outfit this winter.

Dragons are a hot trend with boys, so keep your little guy flying at the front of the pack with this Kicky Pants Dragon outfit:

This two-piece outfit comes in four color combinations: Natural (pictured above), Twilight, Moss (dark green) and Pond (light blue/green). It is available in sizes ranging from 0-3 months up through size 4T.

The little fashionista in your life can strut her stuff in this adorable Peacock Outfit:

The Kicky Pants Peacock Outfit is also available in four color combinations: Natural/Bark (pictured above), Lotus (pink), Twilight and Natural/Lotus. Just like the Dragon Outfit, Peacock is available in sizes ranging from 0-3 months up to 4T.

We love the versatility and coziness of these sets. Perfect for gift giving and a gift that will be loved all through the winter months. All items shown are available online at CottonBabies.com and in our three retail locations. These are seasonal items from Kicky Pants, so get them while you can, because they are only available for a limited time.
