Finally, a swaddle that keeps babies cool, without sacrificing sleep
Stop choosing between sleep and overheating
Swaddling works. Every parent knows that.
But in warm weather it becomes a constant trade-off.
Your baby sleeps better swaddled…
…but wakes up frequently, hot, restless, and grumpy, especially during daytime naps.
It doesn’t have to be that way.
Meet the Ohbubs Legs Out Swaddle
A lightweight, breathable swaddle designed for warm climates, so your baby can sleep longer without getting too hot.
Made from a soft cotton-bamboo blend, it keeps arms secure for sleep while allowing heat to escape through free-moving legs.
Because here’s the truth:
babies don’t need their legs swaddled, they need to stay cool.
Why This Works When Others Don’t
Thick, full-body swaddles trap heat - Babies wake early and unsettled
Legs-out design releases heat - Cooler baby = longer, deeper sleep
Traditional swaddles cover the legs (unnecessarily) Extra fabric, extra warmth
“Free the legs” design - Only the arms are supported, nothing more
Restrictive designs can cause discomfort - Fussy wake-ups and poor naps
Hip-friendly, natural movement - Happier, more settled baby
Designed by a NZ mum
My first baby was born in October 2013, here in New Zealand, that meant heading straight into the hottest months of the year, right when swaddling is supposed to be essential for sleep. And every afternoon, I felt completely torn.
I knew she slept better swaddled, but I could also feel her getting too hot.
Wit my background in fashion and womenswear, I tried to make it work. Cutting fabrics, wrapping lighter muslins, constantly adjusting… but nothing truly solved it.
The following year I designed the Legs Out Swaddle, and when my next baby was born in October 2017, I was ready.
