If that’s the pic posted with the description, shouldn’t it read “…The Hipster Bibster is the perfect solution for any messy toddler or preschooler who hates to wear a regular neck bib.” That kid is NOT a baby.

My 3 year old hits her lap with a lot of food if she’s distracted while eating. She won’t wear a bib, but will wear a child’s size chef apron or even a tea towel tucked into the neck of her shirt.

This one is a miss for me.

My thoughts were in line with Phil. The area a bib needs most to cover is the first few inches directly below the chin. As a baby bib, this product would have allowed quite a few spills on my kids’ shirts.

Also harder to take the kids’ shirt off when 1) They are wearing a onesie or 2) They hate having things pulled over their head. :)

I do it for particularly messy meals (spaghetti), but its easier to put a washable bib on for things like yogurt, oatmeal, etc.

Nice, but I still prefer my invention, which I call “take the baby’s shirt off.” The idea stemmed from a mom’s frustration with washing baby stuff all the time. Instead of having to change clothes after each meal, moms can now rely on their baby’s own naturally stain-resistant skin in all but the coldest months (well, and those really fancy dinner parties babies often attend). I’m having a hard time with the patent for some reason, though…

I’m going to say it’s the “tired of a [blank] that just wouldn’t [blank], this mom…” part. Children must have suffered unimaginable fates in the days before everything was disposable and available in designer colors. I mean seriously, how many more kids must we lose to fashion faux-pas-related accidents?!

Finally a bib to coordinate with my daughter’s strapless gowns!

Don’t they know that as soon as you call yourself a hipster you are not a hipster? Hipsters always deny.

Besides, a real hipster would make their own bibs out of grandpa’s old handkerchiefs, or something equally random.

couldn’t you just use an apron

The “prime landing zone” for food is completely exposed (at least my dudes’ prime landing zone). Looks like a cool painting smock though.
