History of the Baby Onesie

Onesie or onesize is American English for a bodysuit for infants designed to conceal a diaper when worn. It is also called a creeper, diaper shirt or snapsuit. The British English equivalent is babygro. Onesie is a genericized trademark registered to Gerber Childrenswear, Inc., which continues to defend its trademark. Babygro is also a trademark brand, invented in the U.S. in the 1950s by Walter Artzt.

The shirt extends past the waist and has snaps or buttons that allow it to be closed over the crotch, with enough extra room to accommodate a diaper. Onesies are beneficial to the wearer and caregiver alike because they offer support to help keep the diaper in place. Onesies are frequently worn by infants in place of a shirt due to their ability to stay tucked inside the waist of pants, which is difficult to maintain with infants wearing regular style shirts. Onesies also are sometimes made so that the shirting material extends down the thigh about half-way to the knees, with snaps along the crotch to allow for the diaper to be changed without removing the garment completely. They may also cover the entire leg and feet. They are worn commonly by very small children, incontinent persons, and infantilists. Onesies are also available for adults as part of fetish play.

Onesies are popular gifts for expecting or new mothers. They are sometimes incorporated into party games played during a baby shower. One activity is for guests to custom decorate plain onesies prior to the arrival of the expecting or new mother.
