What are the prices of nursing clothes? Quality & Budget, what to choose?

A unique and intimate experience, breastfeeding is nonetheless subject to major challenges, including the choice of appropriate clothing, which plays a crucial role in the comfort of a new mother.

However, there are considerable price differences in the nursing garment market. Discover with us the different price ranges you can expect when choosing the right nursing garments for you.

Price ranges for nursing garments

The term "nursing garments" covers a wide range of products: bras, tops, dresses, pyjamas and sweaters with breast-access systems. Prices vary according to a number of criteria, including material quality, manufacturing methods and design.

Entry-level: between €10 and €30

The most affordable breastfeeding garments can often be found at
large general retailers and on online sales platforms. This segment is characterized by :

Low-quality synthetics or cotton, sometimes mixed with elastane.

Standard cuts, often inspired by classic models, with a discreet opening for breastfeeding.

Mass production, often in low-cost countries.

While these garments serve their purpose, they generally offer more limited durability and less comfort due to the quality of the fabrics. What's more, their design is often more basic, with standardized colors and patterns.

Mid-range: between €30 and €80

Mid-range nursing garments are often offered by specialist maternity brands. They offer several advantages:

Higher-quality fabrics, such as organic cotton, bamboo or blends including modal, offer a softer feel on the skin.

A more elaborate design, with cuts designed to adapt to changes in the body during and after pregnancy.

More responsible production, sometimes with European or Fair Trade manufacturing.

Moms looking for a good compromise between price and comfort often turn to this range, which guarantees better support and greater resistance.

Top of the range: from €80 to €200 and more

In the premium category, nursing garments combine aesthetics, innovation and durability, justifying higher prices:

Noble, certified materials (high-end organic cotton, merino wool, silk, cashmere).

Local, ethical manufacturing, often in Europe or North America.

Elegant, modern cuts that allow garments to be worn long after the breastfeeding period.

Textile innovations, such as thermoregulating, antibacterial and stretch fabrics.

This segment is aimed at mothers looking for functional and
aesthetic garments whose usefulness extends beyond breastfeeding aids.

Why such wide price differences between nursing garment ranges?

Nursing garment prices are therefore influenced by several factors
factors:

- Quality of raw materials: Natural fibers (organic cotton, bamboo, modal) are more expensive than synthetic fibers. In addition, some fabrics undergo treatments to guarantee softness and greater resistance.
- Manufacturing process: A garment mass-produced under poorly controlled working conditions will cost much less than one designed ethically and responsibly.
- Innovation and design: A top-of-the-range nursing garment often features an ingenious opening system, a flattering cut and stretchability that allows it to be used before, during and after breastfeeding.
- Distribution and branding: Large retailers reduce their costs through high production volumes, while smaller, specialized brands charge higher prices to compensate for higher production costs.

What is the best value for money in nursing garments?

When buying nursing clothes, there are several criteria to take into account to optimize your investment:

Putting comfort first

Breastfeeding can last several weeks, or even months, per child. Choosing clothes that are comfortable to wear is essential.

Check practicality

A good nursing garment should allow quick and easy access to the breast, without the need for complicated handling.

Opt for versatility

Some garments are designed to be worn before, during and after breastfeeding, maximizing their useful life.

Assessing ethical commitment

If environmental and social impact is important to you, choose brands that produce responsibly.
