Traditional coats can add inches of space in a crash and this extra space dramatically increases the risk of critical injuries and fatalities. Here is a research study that reviews car crash statistics with regards to injuries due to excessive forward movement:
Test it out at home! Buckle your child in the car seat with no coat on and adjust the harness properly then take them out – put your traditional coat on – and try to buckle them back in without readjusting.
It can’t be done.
The puffiness of the coat makes it impossible to tighten the harness to the “no coat” setting. Buckle Me Baby Coats split along the side and shoulder seams and is thinner in the back than in the front so you can set the harness with no coat on then use your Buckle Me Baby Coat without any adjustments!
The front panel of the coat opens at the side and shoulder seams leaving the shoulders and chest area bare allowing the harness to lie flat and snug against the chest and shoulder.
The back of the fabric is thinner than the front leaving no excess fabric to create slack in the harness.
In fact, you can adjust the harness with no coat on – put the coat back on and use the car seat with the coat without readjusting the harness again.
Although the back is thinner than the front – the density of the insulation is the same keeping littlest loves warm front to back.
Regular coats are sewn together to get that quilted look and fill is blown into pockets which is why when you wash it it deflates like a balloon. Regular coats look puffy and warm but wherever theres sewing there's no insulation so you have cold air leaky spots.
Buckle Me Baby Coats is sewn with whole sheets of insulation between the outer layer and the inner layer and because its a sheet sewn in instead of blown in it looks flatter but its warm enough for the coldest day to and from the car.
The coat has been evaluated by first responders who found that the coat does not slow rescue efforts should the worst happen. In the event of an emergency the car seat is cut out of the car with the child still strapped in to keep them stable. However, the coat does not slow down the process – check out how long it takes to get out of the car seat with our coat on (Spoiler Alert: 10 seconds): https://youtu.be/VQkMQVgqwKA
Some kids run cold and some run warm. If you have a kid who runs warm the panel can be rolled to the side to keep little ones comfy in the car. If your child usually wears a coat or blanket in the car they will find the Buckle Me Baby Coats comfortable too.
This question has become very popular since sleeping bags started including temperature ratings. Sleeping bag companies can rate bags because a sleeping person is inactive and (most often) in a sheltered environment, eliminating many of the variables which make ratings for coats so difficult and inaccurate.
Temperature ratings in winter coats are a bit of a marketing gimmick – most reputable companies like Patagonia don’t provide temperature ratings either.
As a one Mama startup I make a promise that is true – this coat is crash tested and is used at the same harness setting as no coat at all. I don’t want to mix promises that are true with marketing terms that are debatable.
With all that just because I don’t give exact ratings doesn’t mean we don’t make super warm jackets. There is one simple rule that determines how warm a jacket is: thickness equals warmth. Which is why our coats are stuffed with 1.5 inches of thick warm coziness.
You may notice that other coats LOOK puffier but what you don’t know is that most coats are sewn with baffles (like pockets) then the insulation is blown in giving it a puffy look but the actual coat itself isn’t very thick (that's why when you throw it in the washer it totally flattens out).
Buckle Me Baby Coats are designed with a sheet of insulation that is hand quilted in giving the coat even warm cozy coverage all over.
We tested our coats against a sleeping bag rated for -15 degree weather. Using dry ice and a handheld heat loss device our coats retained heat BETTER than the sleeping bag at the 1 minute, 5 minute, 10 minute and 20 minute mark)
It might seem cheaper at time of purchase but there's alot to unpack in the cost of a coat. If you are spending time taking coats on and off every time you get in the car- that wasted time and stress level has a cost. Also coats from big box stores are not designed to last - they want you coming back every year -so you will get a coat this year and need another next year.
Look as a single mama gig with three kids I get it. Buying from a big box store is so tempting. Large corporations can make products for dirt cheap because they order by the millions. Im small potatoes one mom gig with small orders so the cost to make them is high and the price is set by the cost to make them. I totally get budgets though and have lots of ways to help!
The coats have extra length in the sleeves for longer wear without sizing up and adding bulk to the back and I've added Sezzle so parents can split it up into four payments with no interest or credit check.
Most parents get two years out of the coats and some even get three years which works out to about 25/year if you never trade it up or use it with another child.
Our trade up program that allows parents to get up to a $20 refund on the purchase of a new Buckle Me Baby Coat (excluding clearance and Toast coats) when they donate back a gently used Buckle Me Baby Coat.
CPSTS love Buckle Me Baby Coats because they go on at home and stay on safely in the car seat.
Read reviews from your favorite CPSTs here or check out their socials in the winter to hear what they have to say on their platforms.
Buckle Me Baby Coats have been crash tested at an independent University crash test facility where they outperformed traditional puffy coats.
They also work at the same harness setting as no coat in the car seat in all car seats.
The coats have been evaluated by CPSTs who give them two thumbs up!

The coats run a little long in the arms for longer wear across seasons without sizing up. Sizing up adds bulk in the back which is unsafe in the car seat. We recommend buying your childs age so you get all the safety and it lasts.

Yes! Shark Tank was so much fun! The coats were featured on Season 12 Episode 7.

There have been several reports of children wearing puffy coats thrown from their car seats during accidents. You can learn more about them here:

Bamboo Pajamas
Buckle Me Baby Jams are 95% bamboo and 5% spandex for super stretchiness that lasts.
Reason 1: I pick out prints for the Toastiest line every Spring and its so hard to narrow down the ones I like best so I decided to make jams too!
Reason 2: Running a seasonal business is hard (many seasonal businesses can't stay open) selling jams helps me keep the business alive, keeping car seat coats on the market and keeping kids safely buckled.
