Snappy Swagger drool bibs

I have an 18 month old granddaughter who is a very messy eater so when I got the opportunity to test these out, I jumped on them. One thing to keep in mind is the back IS fleece, even though it looks and feels like flannel, probably because that layer is so thin. Flannel is made from organic material like cotton, where fleece is made from synthetic material, such a polyester. The process of making the two is different as well, but I digress, I just want to point out that the back side is made from polyester in case someone has an aversion to the material. I rated this 4 stars for one main reason, after one wash it faded a LOT so if you're aiming to get these to show off, be careful how you wash them. I wash and rinse typically in cold unless I have more heavily soiled clothes. Perhaps my dryer was too hot, I'm not sure. Other than the fading, they are super soft and stayed that way, they wash well and keep their shape, although there was a tad bit of shrinkage, it was minimal and is to be expected with cotton. Also they don't fit well enough to be used as a bib during meal time, my granddaughter gets food everywhere and I prefer the large ones that slip over her head. However, these are great for other times when she's walking around and snacking on fruit or has her drink as she is teething and drools incessantly. I would highly recommend them for that purpose, since they aren't larger they don't inhibit her playing. My photos are after first use (prior to washing) and after the first wash. My granddaughter ate ravioli, I pretreated it with Shout Free, and washed with Whole Foods 365 laundry pods. *I received this product free or at a discount in exchange for my honest, unbiased opinion, no one likes things that suck. #snappyswagger http://www.amazon.com/dp/B018S6JMHO
