So, a while back I was contacted by Agoo Apparel Inc about a review opportunity for some Agoo leggings. I said sure, and here is my honest and fair review:
The package came in early March, simply wrapped up in grey shipping type plastic. Inside was a pair of the Agoo Bamboo Leggings - bright green with little lizards all over them. I couldn't have been more excited to get a "boyish" pair! They are super soft and were way beyond my expectations. I've used other leggings before, but they just can't compare to the Agoos!
Let me just do a quick review of leggings in general, and then why I like the Agoo so much. Leggings are fantastic things for little babies - especially those that like to crawl around in a diaper and T-shirt (like my Adam used to) - and the thing is, his legs were always cold. After chatting with some friends about this, I discovered little leggings that he could wear. They're great - they keep their legs covered enough to be warm, but (apparently) aren't bothersome to little dudes. They're great under shorts/skirts especially on spring fall days.
I thought that leggings were only good for babies, but I soon discovered that my older kids were snagging them to wear on their arms (for the same reasons as you put them on the babies!) They'd head to school on a spring day -- too warm for a jacket, but still a bit too chilly in the morning to wear just a shirt. They'd mix and match the leggings that I have and were the talk of the school. Everyone wanted them.
The Agoo Leggings, however, are even better - I cannot describe how soft they are. They have been through the wash many times and have not faded or shrunk (a major reason it took me 6 weeks to review - I wanted to put them through the ringer!) They are fantastic. They are also bigger than the other brands that I have. This means that they fit Adam's 3 yr old legs/arms and come up to mid-bicep on my older kids (as opposed to the other brands which barely made it over their elbow) -- those extra two inches are fantastic! I also noticed that the elastic isn't as tight...some of the other ones that I had would leave some harsh red marks on Adam's chubby thighs, and though he's no longer a baby with chubby thighs, I don't think the Agoos would have left any mark on him.All in all, they are a fantastic product - very happy with them -- especially right now - they are great chickenpox-on-the-arm covers! My little man is stylin without itching!
