Paying tribute to the good ole’ United States of America is important to many consumers, which makes it equally important for many retailers and designers.

Kandle Kidswear Creates Heart-Felt Tees

Kandle Kidswear apparel is made with love for the coolest of kids. Known for its environmentally-friendly t-shirts, with machine and hand-sewn floppy felt designs, the company is the brainchild of Kim Rodriguez and Laura Dooley, two stay-at-home moms in Austin, Texas. Together, they craft colorful felted designs, with a bit of Bohemian flair, that are sewn on unbleached, 100 percent organic cotton shirts and one-piece body suits made in the United States. Their commitment to “being green” is evident: They use felt that is made of 100 percent post-consumer recycled PET bottles. The felt is also solution dyed, which means that the color is encapsulated in the fiber during the manufacturing process, with no dye runoff into our water system.

T-shirt and one-piece bodysuit designs include Kandle Kidswear’s original Dino Ringer, as well as the Cowboy Dinosaur, Lone Star Armadillo, Austin Bat, Texas Longhorn, Monarch Butterfly, Bluebonnet, Texas Wildflower, Indian Paintbrush, Ally Gator, Princess Tiara, and more! A cute accent on each felt design is floppy, which adds dimensionality and pizzazz. Body suits are offered in sizes 3-6, 6-12 and 12-18 months; t-shirts are available in 2T to 4T, all for $29.
