Best sleep sack for a toddler!
Before I found out about Grobags I thought the only sleep sack big enough for my tall 17 month old was the Halo which goes up to toddler sizes. I bought this sleep sack after reading about how polyester is not at all breathable plus the Halo fleece sleep sack is not warm enough for winter on the east coast. This Grobag has cotton on the inside and outside which of course is breathable with poly fiber fill on the inside. 2.5 togs is the warmest European rating for a sleep sack. The bag is cozy but not heavy or thick at all - about the thickness of a very light comforter or throw. We keep our house fairly cool at 67 degrees in the winter and my daughter is warm enough in long sleeve cotton pajamas in her Grobag.
The bag has 2 snaps on each shoulder and a zipper along the bottom of one side all the way up to the underarm. If you're more used to the Halo with the zipper up the middle Grobag makes a version like that too.
Another difference between this bag and the Halo is the Grobag doesn't have much extra room in the width around the torso which I like because it doesn't get bunched up in that area. But there's plenty of room in the leg area for the little one to kick around. The Grobag also runs long. The 6-18 month size is about 37" long which is a few inches longer than the 18-24 month Halo. Sure it costs twice as much but it's a good quality bag and the patterns are cheery and cute.
Another tip: when you add the Grobag to your cart double check that the tog rating and the size are what you want. When I was buying mine there was a bug on the site that kept giving me the 1.0 tog version which is a lightweight spring/summer material even though I kept selecting 2.5 togs.More detail ...
