Wauggl Bauggl Zen Purpur Review





Wauggl Bauggl Zen Purpur
62% combed cotton/38% merino wool /335 GSM
1 year and 24 pounds

I was immediately impressed with how soft Zen Purpur felt when it first arrived. Definitely you can tell it's a merino blend, there is a wool feel, but it's just so soft and fluffy! The purple color is even more saturated in person than I was expecting from photos I had seen.


The pattern doesn't add much texture or grip at all, this wrap is rather smooth and felt very flat as I ran my hand over, just a bit of fluffy texture from the merino wool. There was a medium to high amount of stretch as I pulled diagonally.


The bold purple shade works so wonderfully with the stark white and the graphic print of wings creating a lovely contrast, so that the pattern stands out clearly. This is a wonderful Fall to Winter wrap that will fit in with all your cozy clothes and add that extra snuggly feel and warmth for both you and your baby.


I tested this in a size 4 and it was absolutely perfect for a rucksack carry. Zen Purpur is a wider and rather blankety wrap, so you do have a little more work to do with carries, but you get so much support! Because this is a merino wool blend you get those wonderful wool wrapping qualities too. Cushy and bouncy, there is a nice stretch with good recovery that moves with you and your baby. Also with the low texture of this wrap passes move easily into place and tightening the wrap is not difficult at all. For a wrap that is blankety there is a lot of floppiness and pleating is effortless.


Because the wrap is wider and thick some may not love it with really small babies. This is a wrap that I would wholeheartedly recommend for toddlercarrying and in a shorty it really shines. A great quality is that it is very forgiving of sloppy wrap jobs, which are sometimes all you can manage with a toddler. Lovers of easy care wool and cush look no further than this purple beauty.


Thank you Wauggl Bauggl for the opportunity to test!
