Babybox Collection
Rippstrick Bundhose aus Wolle
Welcome, little one – and welcome, your new favorite pants!
The newest member of our Babybox Collection is here: our beloved baby pants, now in a beautiful ribbed knit design. Made from 100% wool (Merino), these pants offer everything parents wish for – comfort, warmth, flexibility, and peace of mind.
Designed for newborns and small babies, they gently wrap your baby’s belly while growing with them over several sizes. Thoughtfully created by moms and a midwife – with real-life experience in mind.
Why parents love them:
-
Gentle support for baby’s belly: The high, soft waistband wraps snugly without pressure. Especially important right after birth to keep the kidney and liver area warm and protected.
-
Grows with your baby: The clever cut allows the pants to fit across 3–4 sizes – sustainable and budget-friendly.
-
All-season favorite: Wool naturally regulates temperature – keeping your baby warm in winter and cool in summer.
-
Ultra-soft for delicate skin: Unlike regular wool, Merino fibers are ultra-fine – perfect for sensitive newborn skin.
-
Low maintenance: Merino wool is self-cleaning and odor-resistant – less laundry, more time for cuddles.
-
Ethically made in Italy: Produced in a small family-run knitting mill under fair working conditions.
-
Mulesing-free wool: For the sake of animal welfare – sourced responsibly from sheep in Spain and Italy.
Available in Sand, Dusty Blue, and Rosewood
Size 50/56 – designed to fit newborns up to around 3–5 months
Wool
Our recommendation to always read the care instructions in the respective garments, the special composition of the manufacturer and the origin of the materials often require individual care.
Merino wool and virgin wool
Manufacturers always recommend hand washing, cold and without temperature fluctuations, no wringing and rubbing of the garment. Basically, you should use a laundry bag for your wool laundry, this reduces the friction on the washing machine drum and thus the risk of felting. Textiles made of wool do not get dirty as quickly as cotton textiles, it is usually sufficient to air the textiles and only wash them when they are really dirty.
Always wash wool on the wool cycle and make sure the setting uses cold water, not 30 degrees. Basically, the older the washing machine is, the worse the wool program is, which can lead to problems. Also pay attention to the spin speed, it should be greatly reduced and no final spin should be set.
You should also use a high-quality, organic wool detergent and not a conventional one. Dry your woolen laundry lying on a towel and carefully pull it into shape after washing. Please never let your woolen clothes dry in the blazing sun, in the tumble dryer or on the radiator.
With our Joha and FUB products, we have had good experiences washing them at 30 degrees on a wool cycle. (but we do not assume any guarantee)
boiled wool
Consists of organic new wool, this wool should be gently cleaned. Wool has a high proportion of lanolin (wool fat). This wool fat gives boiled wool items their easy-care and dirt-repellent properties. In the case of light soiling, it is usually sufficient to shake out or brush out the boiled wool garments; the miracle brush is suitable here. Unpleasant odors will disappear if you hang your clothes out in the fresh air overnight.
For larger soiling, the manufacturer recommends washing the clothing inside out by hand. Virgin wool must not be wrung out and dried in the dryer.
Here, too, we as the BabyBox team have had good experiences with the cold wool washing program and clean our boiled wool parts in this way, of course we cannot guarantee this, as the manufacturer recommends hand washing.
Briefly summarized:
- Sort laundry by colour, temperature and material
- Please use a high-quality, organic wool laundry detergent and please avoid using standard traditional laundry detergents as this can lead to the wool felting, shrinking, etc.
- Pay attention to the manufacturer's instructions for the amount of detergent to be used
- Select the washing program according to the information on the label
- Make sure the drum is filled correctly
Briefly summarized:
- Drying in the fresh air is best
- Do not hang sensitive materials in direct sunlight
- Dry the knit flat
- Ensure good ventilation

FAQ
For the waist pants, you should definitely choose size 56. We design our products to be extra large where it makes sense, so that you can wear them for a longer period. The waist pants are designed so that you can pull them up to under your armpits at first, and then they gradually grow with you.
Definitely! Always remember that your baby doesn't have fat reserves when it comes into the world and also can't shiver to generate heat on its own. Wool is a good choice throughout the year, but especially in the first weeks and months. Wool also regulates temperature and helps your child to stay warm or cool.
Also remember in Germany and DACH region it never really gets hot and especially in the mornings and evenings its cool.
We recommend washing the pants in the wool cycle in a good machine with cold water. Using a laundry bag is always advantageous to protect the fibers and prevent them from catching on other clothes.
Always use a good wool detergent from the organic store, and add lanolin every second or third wash. The natural lanolin replenishes the wool fiber with natural wool fat, which it loses during washing. This helps the material maintain its softness, but most importantly, its properties. Make sure that the spin cycle is not too high and let the pants dry lying flat."
Yes, we place the highest importance on ensuring that everyone in the value chain is well cared for, including the sheep. All our products, whether pure Merino wool or Merino wool blends, are mulesing-free.
