(And What Actually Matters When You’re Buying for Your Child)
Shopping for children’s clothing today isn’t what it used to be. Parents are more informed, more intentional, and more cautious about what touches their child’s skin — and for good reason.
Between buzzwords like organic, eco-friendly, non-toxic, and sustainable, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. So let’s break it down in a simple, honest way.
1. Comfort Comes First (Always)
Kids move. A lot. Clothing should move with them — not restrict, irritate, or overheat.
That’s why breathable fabrics like cotton (including organic cotton) are so popular in children’s wear. Cotton allows airflow, feels soft against sensitive skin, and holds up well to frequent washing — something every parent understands.
At Ryan & Remi, comfort isn’t optional. Whether it’s playtime, naptime, or travel days, our pieces are designed to feel good all day long.
2. What “Made With Organic Cotton” Really Means
You’ve probably seen the phrase “made with organic cotton” across many brands — and it’s important to understand what that actually means.
-
Some items are 100% cotton
-
Others are cotton blends, designed for stretch, durability, or structure
-
Organic cotton may be used as a primary material or part of the blend
Why blends? Because kids’ clothing needs to last. Stretch waistbands, reinforced seams, and shape retention often require thoughtfully chosen additional materials.
We believe transparency matters — which is why fabric details are listed on product pages and garment labels.
3. Where Kids’ Clothing Is Made (And Why It’s Normal)
A common misconception is that “made in China” automatically means poor quality or unethical production. In reality, China is one of the world’s largest and most advanced textile manufacturing hubs, producing garments for both small brands and major global labels.
What matters isn’t where something is made — it’s how it’s made:
-
Quality control
-
Safety standards
-
Ethical production partners
-
Consistent manufacturing practices
Our products are made to our specifications, with safety, comfort, and quality as top priorities.
