One Million Onesies

With the news this week that Asda has ordered 1 million (yes that's 1,000,000) onesies in time for the Christmas rush, it's a wonder if many of us will be wearing anything else this winter.

Nearly half of people surveyed said they were thinking of buying a onesie as a gift for someone else, and over a third said they were planning on wearing a onesie themselves on Christmas day

Well... at least no one but your family is going to see you

But why is everyone so exciting by the return of the adult baby grow?

Simply really. They're just too darn cosy! Onesies are simple to wear, simple to get into and delightfully warm and snug once you're in - it's a bit like being back in bed.

Should you go out in one? Probably not.

The movement is happening though and every day you see people out and about on the streets in their onesie - cheaper ones are basically romper suits but buy a decent onesie and you have elasticated cuffs at hands and feet allowing for shoes and the freedom of having hands not covered by fleece mittens - perfect for a quick trip to the shops?

Our Manbi onesies have been developed using ski wear technology, using advanced microfleece for the softest feel and best warmth and insulation properties. Complete with a full zip, extra large hood and stash pockets, Manbi onesies - or Chalet Suits to give them their proper name - really are the bees knees and beat the cheapo onesies hands down for warmth, practicality and durability. The best bit is that the material Manbi use is breathable so you don't get all warm, sweaty and sticky on the inside - I'd say that in itself is worth its weight in gold compared to the rest out there.

The birth of the Onesie party

It's happened. People in our office have been to them. The internet is giving us pictures of them. And we're getting invited to them. It's the Onesie Party. The ultimate in dress down dress up, the Onesie Party is becoming a trend nationwide. The modern way of throwing a pyjama party where everyone knows what's acceptable and what's not, expect more and more of these to pop up over winter. Bobble hats and underwear are optional.
