I have seen these on a few cloth nappy websites, and think they look pretty cool.
What are these actually for and when do you use them?
Do you own any? have you used them much?

We used them heaps - looked cute with just a cloth nappy, or also really good in the middle of winter to put under jeans etc for warmth.
Now he's older, we use them as 'sleeves' under tshirts - if he's in a tshirt and it just gets a bit chilly, we pop them on, so it makes it a long sleeved tshirt. Or when it's a bit colder, he'll have a long sleeved onesie with a tshirt and the sleeves on (just cos they look styley.. it also means we can use tshirts for longer rather than having to get heaps of longsleeved ones).

they also really handy in winter so you can change a nappy without getting their legs all cold.

I had about a million pairs for the gremlins, they were awesome, and soooo cute!
Remember this Kellz?  (Mercedes is wearing strawberry shortcake baby legs)

Just a wee bit obsessed
I didn't have the same obsession by the time lil miss arrived - in her case, it was 5 pairs of Nature Baby drawstring pants

I've got a couple of pairs for Ella, but as a baby she had pretty cubbly legs, so they always looked really uncomfortable on her and we didn't really use them that much.

I got some for the new bubba-the ones I got were from Cotton on kids & they were $10. I plan on getting a few more pairs. They are super-cute.
BTW I love the cow ones in the pics above! Gorgeous!

I recall the Emma obsession with baby legs! We even had a photo thread dedicated to baby legs at one stage.
