ManyMonths ECO Hempies Elephant Hood

Description

ECO Hempies Elephant Hood

Material: ECO Jersey 55% hemp, 45% organic cotton (medium weight)

This is our all-time bestseller product for babywearing, sleeping, bike, and car rides, and sensitive necks too. The whole middle panel on the Hempies Hood is stretchy, which ensures a great fit, comfort, and ease of use. Perfect for layering during the winter months and to use on its own during other seasons. When babywearing on the back it might be the only hat/hood that your child cannot take off and feed to the wind, and the only one that stays on throughout the sling tying process. Good UV protection as well.

All ManyMonths products are designed to grow with your child. This has been taken into account in the design of the garments. 

We exclusively use safe Oeko-Tex 100 certified dyes, and the fabrics are pre-washed twice.

Benefits of Hemp Clothing

We combine hemp with organic cotton in all our ManyMonths ECO Hempies (55% hemp/organic cotton 45%). The woven items are lightweight linen fabric and the knitted items are light or medium weight jerseys.
Our hemp blend fabrics are pre-washed twice to avoid shrinkage and make the clothing ready to wear straight out of the package.
Like wool, hemp can absorb quite a lot of humidity (up to 20% of its own weight) and keep feeling dry to the touch. Our ManyMonths ECO Hempies are highly breathable and feel cool in the summer heat.

Hemp itself is UV-resistant and has antimicrobial properties — clothing made of it also carries these properties. This means that hemp fabric naturally holds out against microbes and can repress the growth of bacteria. Your clothing stays fresh longer and you can opt to wash them less often than other clothing, which is better for the environment as it saves both water and energy. Hemp clothing doesn't mind washing though — actually, your pieces become even softer with every wash!
