The mittens are really well made without any threads coming out. The size is perfect and the rubber band is not too tight, but also sturdy enough to stay on little hands. I've tried Gerber's and they seemed thiner and the rubber band was weak to loose.

I used the same kind for my previous baby (just boy colors) and they are fine to wash and dry and still held well till my son didn't need them anymore. Now I got new girly ones and they are the same great quality.
