Baby sleeping bag size guide

How to pick between 60, 70, 90 and 110 cm, measured from your baby's height, not their age.

Measure height, not age

Sleeping bag sizes are based on body length, and babies of the same age can differ by more than 10 cm. Measure your baby from shoulder to foot, then add roughly 10 to 15 cm of room to move.

The bag should be long enough for your baby to stretch, but never so long that they can slip down inside it. The neck and arm openings are what keep the bag safe, they should sit snugly without pressing.

Our size chart

Use this as a starting point and size up when your baby is between two sizes and already close to the upper height.

SizeApproximate ageBody height
60 cm0 to 3 monthsup to 62 cm
70 cm3 to 9 months62 to 74 cm
90 cm9 to 18 months74 to 92 cm
110 cm18 to 36 months92 to 110 cm

When to move up a size

Move up when your baby's feet reach the bottom seam, or when the neck opening starts to look tight. Buying one size too big "to last longer" is the most common mistake, a bag your baby can slide into is not safer for having more room.
