Pram suit or a foot muff?

Hi

Getting ready for winter I was almost buying a pram suit for my 5 month old. However Im wondering if a foot muff for the our Phil & Ted Vibe would be a better investment? Im thinking about Winter if it gets as bad as last year. Any advice?

I find the foot-muff brilliant, my son is so cosy in it and it can come right up to under his neck. So I'd usually just put a hoody or a fleece & hat on him. I have a bugaboo and got one of there own foot-muffs. It was one of my best buys. I actually didn't get a huge amount of use out of pram suits, as I had the maxi cosi car seat and also had the foot-muff for that.

We used both the last 2 winters because we were out in it every day.
The snow suit is definitely better if it is a one or the other situation and about 20% the price!

I reckon it depends on how long you're going to be out for. I usually had my wee fella in and out of the buggy the whole time, so he wouldn't be in it for hours. I found this muff great as he had regular clothes on underneath so there wasn't a big strip every time I went inside. It was €20 in TKMaxx, no way would I have paid full price for it! It'll do the next one as well.

However, if I was out for a long walk and he would be in the buggy the whole time, I used a M&S snowsuit I got as a present.

Thanks for that.

Was thinking of getting the Wallaboo footmuff. Im going to get the big one too as shes a big lady and reckon at that price it will be a good investment as it should do for a few years.

Im always out and about walking so maybe both will have to be purchased. Ill check TK Maxx too
