Overview
Go Go Bag by Merino Kids
This baby's sleeping bag called a 'Go Go Bag' is an excellent example of the contemporary use of New Zealand merino wool in children’s sleepwear. It provides an interesting contrast with the style of bedding used for babies in previous centuries when it was thought that it was best to swaddle and wrap babies. This design allows the baby to have its arms and legs free. It also has a central vent or slit that allows the baby to be transferred from car seat or buggy to bed and vice versa – an important design feature created in response a lifestyle in which mothers and babies are regularly on the move.
The Go Go Bag by Merino Kids is one of the most particular brands of sleeping bag in New Zealand and the company 'Merino Kids' has won several design awards for it.
