Catimini Shirt Review

I found a Catimini baby shirt and pants set at a consignment shop and am thrilled with this outfit.

Here's what I like:

• VERY warm
• comfortable--100% cotton outer layer with 100% polyester wadding
• lots of cute embellishments with a character and zipper on the front and added details on the sleeves
• workmanship appears to be excellent with all seams finished quite nicely
• very unique look--I have never seen a shirt like this before
• I have washed this outfit numerous times without any problems (cold water with Dreft and dryer on medium heat)
• I got this outfit for a fraction of the new price

Here's what I would change:

• My kids and I prefer tagless clothing
• I suppose the buttons could be a choking hazard, but they appear to be sewn on very well--none of the threads even after multiple washings
• Snaps in the back make for a cute style but a little tricky to dress a child that squirms
• The cost is quite steep--similar items on the Catimini website are selling for about $60-80 for a set like this
• Made in Thailand (I prefer to buy American made products when available)

My Viewpoint:

If money is not limited within your budget, you may wish to consider a Catimini shirt because the price is quite high. The quality appears to be excellent and the extra embellishments are well done and very cute. If money is an object, perhaps you'll be fortunate enought to find this brand at a consignment shop.
