Basic equipment

What does a newborn really need?
Choosing the right materials is crucial when it comes to your newborn's first outfit. A baby's skin is sensitive, not yet fully developed, and particularly absorbent. Therefore, in this checklist, we focus on skin-friendly, breathable, and temperature-regulating materials such as merino wool, wool-silk, bamboo viscose, or Tencel. These not only give your baby a sense of security, but also ensure a healthy skin climate and a comfortable body feeling from the very beginning.
Above all, babies need closeness, security – and clothing and equipment that protect their sensitive skin. In the first few weeks, it's not quantity that counts, but quality: A few well-chosen items made from high-quality natural materials such as merino wool, wool-silk, Tencel, or organic cotton are perfectly sufficient. These materials regulate temperature, are kind to the skin, and ensure a healthy microclimate. Here you'll find the most important essentials at a glance.
