Babybox Collection Baby Schlüttli Made from Fine Merino Wool – Perfect Protection & Comfort for Your Baby
The Babybox Schlüttli, made from the finest Merino wool, is more than just a cozy knitted jacket—it’s a thoughtfully designed must-have for newborns. With its clever design, it provides your baby with maximum comfort, warmth, and freedom of movement.
What Makes the Babybox Schlüttli So Special?
✓ Perfect for Babies – High Neckline for Optimal Protection
Since newborns do not yet have a well-defined neck, our Schlüttli provides extra protection for this sensitive area. The high neckline ensures cozy warmth and prevents cold air from reaching your baby’s neck.
✓ Side Buttoning – No Pressure, No Discomfort
Designed with a practical side-button closure, this Schlüttli ensures that your baby doesn’t feel any irritating button placket while lying on their tummy. This not only increases comfort but also makes dressing and undressing much easier—less stress for you and your baby.
✓ Grows with Your Baby – Sustainable & Practical
With its smart design, our Schlüttli adapts to your baby’s growth across multiple sizes. This means you can enjoy it for a longer time without frequently buying new clothing—saving money and promoting sustainability.
✓ Temperature-Regulating – Perfect for All Seasons
Made from 100% premium Merino wool, this Schlüttli naturally regulates temperature: it warms in cold weather and cools when it’s hot. This is essential for newborns, who cannot yet regulate their body temperature on their own due to low fat reserves and the inability to shiver for warmth.
✓ Ultra-Soft & Gentle on Baby Skin – No Itching, No Irritation
Merino wool is known for its incredible softness, making it perfect for delicate baby skin. It is breathable, moisture-wicking, and provides a cozy wearing experience without any discomfort.
✓ Easy to Care for – Less Washing, Less Effort
With its antibacterial and self-cleaning properties, Merino wool requires minimal washing—simply air it out, and it's fresh again. This saves time, water, and energy while keeping your baby’s clothes naturally clean.
✓ Ethically & Sustainably Produced in Italy
Our Schlüttli is crafted in a small Italian knitting workshop, ensuring the highest quality and fair working conditions.
✓ Mulesing-Free – For Happy Sheep & Sustainable Fashion
Our wool comes from ethically sourced, mulesing-free Merino sheep in Spain and Italy, ensuring both animal welfare and sustainable production.

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
- Heavy-duty detergents and color detergents are sufficient as standard detergents
- 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
With our own products, we always ensure that, where it makes sense, the cuts are optimized so that you can enjoy them for as long as possible and your children can wear them for a long time. For our Schlüttli, we recommend size 50/56 for newborns. You will need to fold the sleeves up at first, allowing our Schlüttli to grow with your child for a long time.
Absolutely! Always remember that your baby has no fat reserves when they are born and cannot shiver to generate their own warmth. Wool is a great choice year-round, but especially in the first weeks and months. Wool also regulates temperature, helping to keep your child warm or cool as needed.
We recommend washing the Schlüttli in the wool cycle of a good machine with cold water. A laundry bag is always advantageous to protect the fibers and prevent them from snagging on other clothing. Always ensure that the spin speed is not too high, as this can cause the fibers to shrink. Always use a good wool detergent from the organic store and add lanolin to every second or third wash. The natural lanolin replenishes the wool fibers with natural wool fat, which is lost during washing. This helps the material retain its softness and, more importantly, its properties. Make sure the spin speed is not too high, and let the pants dry lying flat. For more information on caring for wool clothing, check out our Babybox Wiki - Laundry Care.

Checklist
Initial equipment
One of the most beautiful, yet probably the most overwhelming topics when it comes to the baby: The initial equipment! There are about as many opinions on this as there are guidebooks, and everyone really says something different. We think: It doesn't have to be that way, because in the beginning you don’t need much—just the right things.
The Best Material for Babies
We love wool, not only because it is a sustainable raw material and therefore good for the planet, but also because wool naturally possesses many useful properties that make it the perfect material for babies and children.

Laundry Care
Life starts simple
At the beginning, you don't need much, but the right things. With this vision, we, Marina and Sissi, founded Babybox and Family in 2017. Instead of overwhelming advice from all sides about what is needed in the postpartum period and the months following birth, we longed for a place where one could find the concentrated knowledge and experiences of mothers and midwives who have already been through it all.
With us, you will only find products that we have tested and use or have used ourselves. Our products are minimalist, natural, and sustainable. Good for your child and our planet. It is important to us that your child can wear our clothing for a particularly long time and that it is practical in everyday life. Always with the principle, less is more!
