This is the ultimate combination of comfort and style. Add Down is an Italian brand, and the Add Down Baby Snowsuit is filled with goose down (as you can tell by the name of the brand), which makes it incredibly warm. The snowsuit is 100% nylon, so it is very easy to wash. It has detachable mittens, booties and hood. The suit is very light and flexible, so your toddler will have no difficulty moving around. It also offers a very good fit and an elegant look without any bulk. The belt adds to comfort by separating the top from the bottom, and looks just lovely on that little figure.
The one negative thing about this snowsuit is the crazy price tag. In the United States you can find it for $280.00, and it costs even more in Europe, 231.40 Euro to be precise. Also, I'd recommend handwashing the suit - considering the cost you're better off spending an extra 10 minutes rather than take a

There are a few places in the US where you can get the suit. To find a store near you go to www.adddown.it, select your language, select "stores" at the bottom, click "baby" on the left, and you'll be shown the countries that carry Add Down baby merchandise. Click on "United States" and select your city in the drop down menu. The reason I am describing this process step by step is because any link to the website leads to the main page or the online shopping page. And speaking of the online shopping page, they don't ship to the US, so shopping online isn't an option, unfortunately.
In a strange way, the fact that this snowsuit is so difficult to get your hands on makes it even more appealing. Feel free to write to me if you need help locating a store that carries it.
Add Down also carries a two-piece baby snowsuit, which consists of overalls and a jacket, and also has removable mittens, booties and hood, plus a wonderful goose down baby bag, probably the warmest one out there. That said, I have yet to find out if they're available to us in the United States.
Overall, this is a wonderful snowsuit, though it's probably beyond most mommies' budgets. The good news is that the other snowsuits I've reviewed this week are really no worse than this one. In fact, their smaller price tags probably make for better value. That said, I really couldn't blame anyone for wanting this one above all else. So if money isn't an issue, go right ahead and enjoy your snowsuit. The rest of us will live vicariously through you and your little one :-)
This concludes our snowsuit week, and tomorrow we'll be back with our regularly scheduled programming! I hope I helped you find what you were looking for, and please feel free to share your experiences with me :-)
