My five year old son chose a pair of
Darth Vadar pyjamas from
Fabric Flavours. I found it a slightly
surprising choice as he's never even
seen
Star Wars, and there are other designs in the series – but he's
very happy
with them!
They are a
thick cotton, which feels soft. The
waistband is
nicely done, so it's not all rucked up around the
waist but smooth, which I imagine is
very comfortable to wear.
The
distressed design does look as though it's been
pre-loved, in fact, they almost look like something my brother might have worn
in the
70s, but I imagine they will
age well. Certainly after
one wash they
still look good and don't seem to have
shrunk, which is good, not least because
I don't think the
sizes are very generous. My
medium-small five years and three month
old looks about right in the
age 5-6 size.
The
only downside really is that they did seem to
leach some
colour on first wearing when he had an
accident in bed, but then I hadn't
pre-washed them, perhaps I should have done.
PWT rating: ♥♥♥♥♥Fabric Flavours pyjamas are available in sizes 3/4. 5/6 and 7/8 years. The
