I feel like I have buy or receive just about every bib on the market and these be by far my favorite ! they be very absorbent but nothing seem to leak through - my baby 's clothes be always perfectly dry underneath . and that be say a lot because he `` dribble '' excessively while take he bottle ! the bib be soft - not stiff or crinkly like so many other waterproof bib . they remain waterproof & absorbent even after many , many wash -lrb- the one I buy 2 year ago for my older son still work perfectly ! -rrb- I love that they have snap rather than velcro because that mean they do not snag all of the other clothes in the wash when I forget to connect the two end together . all that and they be pretty cute - what more could you ask ? I give they 5 star with no reservation !!
