Protect your clothes (and your baby) with Burp Armor

Posted by Pinky Bean on April 28, 2008 10:38 AM Filed Under: Clothes, Shopping

If you've ever lost a favorite shirt to the drool and spit-up that inevitably occurs while burping your baby, than has Burp Armor ever got great news for you. The company offers ergonomic burp cloths that have enough traction to stay-put on your shoulder, meaning they won't shift at a crucial moment and leave you covered in your baby's *ahem* residue.

Not only the cloths stay in their proper place, they're made using all-natural materials such as organic cotton and sustainable hemp and are pre-washed in organic soap to mirror the soft feeling and absorbency of cloth diapers. Two layers of fleece soak up any fluids unexpectedly hurled at you and a third layer of corduroy provides the aforementioned traction to keep the cloth from slipping.

The concept of the cloths was developed by a new father who was inspired after staying up with his newborn during a late-night feeding.

“The idea came to me one very late night after an especially ‘soggy’ feeding with my newborn son,” recalls Burp Armor Co-founder Mike Barclay. “I knew I wasn’t the only parent who could use a more comfortable, durable and practical burp cloth. The very next morning I started sketching our ideas … and the rest, you might say, is ‘burp history.’”

The cloths, which are made in the U.S., aren't the only aspect of Burp Armor that is eco-friendly; the company also uses recyclable packaging and soy-based inks. They also donate a portion of their proceeds to Children's Hospital Boston.

Hit the jump to find out if there's a store carrying Burp Armor near you or to order yours online.

Perfect! This was a stroke of luck. My cousin's baby shower is coming up and we don't know if the baby is a boy or girl. These will make a perfect gift.

I'm adding you to my bookmarks. Wink

Leafy Green's Tip of the Day Do you have shelves of dusty books? Why not re-gift them? A good book can be a thoughtful gift, especially if it's one you've enjoyed yourself! Organize a book re-gifting exchange with family and friends. By the time you're ready to re-read 'War and Peace' someone may re-gift it back to you!
