s/o rompers on boys - clicky poll

12-24 is having a debate.  [Poll]

Re: s/o rompers on boys - clicky poll

  • I love them.  My boys wear them all the time.  Gabe is just starting to get to the age where they are a bit too young-looking for him.  I figure at 2 we should stop wearing them Wink

  • Do you mean for example, the cute little plaid sunsuits that are kind of like shortalls?  My boys wore them all the time.  I loved them!  They did stop wearing them the summer they were 2.
  • Unless it's pink and frilly it isn't girly. DS has several, he goes between onesies and rompers.

    Basically a one-piece outfit that snaps at the crotch.  Some look like onesies with sleeves and legs.  Dressier ones look like overalls.

    Since I can't find any shorts or pants to fit him, rompers are the only way his legs are ever covered at all.  It's either that or a plain onesie or t-shirt-and-a-diaper.  The romper works great for us. I can't imagine how they're "girly." Especially the one he wore today with a puppy dog and baseballs on it.

  • I chose the snowflake.  I like them because they are practical.  I sometimes think they are cute.  I think they look like they belong on younger babies.  DH HATES them.
  • LOVE them! DS wears them often and I make sure they aren't frilly froo froo girly looking.
  • DS has a few and I think they're cute, but some of them do tend to look a little bit on the girly side.

  • Really? People think these look girly? LOL, it's all DS wears pretty much - I like them because they look "dressed" to me, whereas just a onesie looks messy, IMO.

  • DS wears one almost every day. I will admit I think the sleeveless ones tend a little toward the girly, but his are all in the blue & green families, so I don't worry about it. My favorites are the ones with the polo collars.

    Ditto this.

  • I love them.  It's so much easier than trying to find pants and a onesie/shirt.  Plus he is super squirmy so changing his diaper is harder now.  I don't think i would every get pants back on him.
  • depends on the age.

     

  • I only like some kinds of them for boys.  I like packing them in the diaper bag as an extra set of clothes because they are easy and don't take a ton of room.  That said, I try to avoid DS in them because the thighs make the shorts roll up and it just looks like a onesie!

  • DS has several. And I assure you they aren't girly.  I even but him in *gasp* a smocked bubble for his 9 month pics.  DH wasn't a huge fan but heirloom clothing is classic. 

    ETA: I also think there comes a point where they get too old and it becomes ridiculous.  A 4 year old boy can't pull off Kelly's Kids and Strausburg.

  • I voted snowflake because I don't think they are girly at all but I do think they are ugly.  DS has one and he only wears them to bed or around the house.  Otherwise he is in onesies, T shirts, Jeans or shorts.
  • I would say DS spends 90% of his summer time in them!  I think they are the cutest!

  • I didn't know anyone thought they looked girly. I love them. DS has like, 10!  We CD, and it is SO hard to find shorts that fit around his giant booty. The rompers are always a perfect fit, plus he is really squirmy for diaper changes. At home he mostly wears a diaper and a t shirt, but when we go out it is mostly rompers.

    Ditto word for word.

    It's all that DS wears during the day.

  • I love them.  I don't have that many in his summer size.  When I was shopping I got all onesies and pants.  I wish I had more because the are easy and cute. They look a lot better than just having a onesie on.
