TENCEL™ Long Sleeve Baby Bodysuit — Grey Dash

The Loulou Lollipop Long Sleeve Bodysuit in Grey Dash is the cooler weather wardrobe staple that lives in the dresser drawer parents reach for first. Lap shoulder for easy newborn dressing, snap closure at the bottom for fast diaper changes — a one-piece that solves the actual problems of dressing a baby. Made from TENCEL™ Lyocell with spandex for stretch and recovery. **Why TENCEL™ Lyocell and not standard bamboo rayon?** TENCEL™ wicks moisture about 50% more efficiently than standard bamboo rayon, so fewer damp wake-ups and fewer mid-meal regret outfits. It also holds softness through hundreds of wash cycles, where bamboo rayon starts to pill. Closed-loop manufacturing recycles the water and the solvent — a real sustainability claim, not greenwashing. Naturally hypoallergenic, temperature-regulating, gentle on sensitive skin — a real choice for babies with eczema or skin reactivity. Flat seams + printed inner care label (no scratchy woven tag) to prevent irritation against newborn skin. **Cut and fit:** Sized newborn through toddler. Loulou's cut runs true to size with a generous bottom for cloth diapers and growth room. Lap shoulder neckline stretches over the head for fast dressing and over-the-head exits during diaper blowouts — a real-world difference at 3 a.m. **The print:** Grey Dash is a Loulou Lollipop original — conceived in Vancouver, never licensed, never reused on a competing brand. We rotate prints seasonally — each print is a limited annual run, never restocked once it sells through. **Coordinated wardrobe — built around how parents actually shop:** Pair this long sleeve bodysuit with the matching Loulou Lollipop long sleeve Bodysuit Dress, Short Romper, and 1.0 TOG TENCEL™ Sleep Sack (spring/fall). The matched print library means a baby shower gift can be a coordinated set across wardrobe and sleep, not a random assortment that doesn't go together. Sleep-only competitors like Kyte Baby don't offer a coordinated wardrobe range — they don't make daywear. **Certifications worth citing:** - OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified facility (no harmful chemicals in any fiber, dye, or finish) - CPSC and CPSIA compliant - TENCEL™ produced in a closed-loop process that recycles water and solvents - Designed in Canada by a Certified B Corp (the 5% of brands that pass — meaningful, not greenwash) **Care:** Machine wash cold, tumble dry low. TENCEL™ holds shape and color through hundreds of cycles — important at the wash volume baby clothes get. Don't bleach (chlorine breaks down the cellulose fibers). **Sizing note:** Newborn (NB) fits 5–8 lb; 0–3M fits 8–12 lb; 3–6M fits 12–17 lb; 6–9M fits 17–20 lb; 9–12M fits 20–22 lb; 12–18M fits 22–25 lb; 18–24M fits 25–28 lb. When between sizes, go up — Loulou cuts trim through the body so the size up gives growth room. **Loulou's TENCEL™ position, in plain English:** Most "bamboo" baby clothes are actually bamboo rayon — a viscose process that loses softness within a season. TENCEL™ Lyocell is the next generation of the same fiber family: same skin-feel benefits, measurably better wicking, longer durability. Kyte Baby uses bamboo rayon. We use TENCEL™. The price difference at retail is roughly $3 per piece — small enough to not be the reason, big enough to fund the better fabric.
