Summer semi-overalls are sewn from light, breathable fabrics (linen, cotton, flax or terry cloth, denim).As a rule, it has a short length, which is comfortable for a toddler who fiddles in the sandbox or rides on a slide. Models for a cool summer can have a knitted or cotton lining.
Sports semi-overalls for the warm season are made of natural breathable fabrics so as not to cause discomfort during training. Sports semi-overalls for winter must be supplemented with insulation. These models are ideal for outdoor games, as well as active sports such as skiing. The materials used for sewing allow air to pass through well: a young athlete will not sweat in such clothes, he will be quite comfortable and warm.
Winter semi-overalls are made of denser fabrics with the use of insulation. Most often it is down, thinsulate, synthetic winterizer and other natural or synthetic fillers.
For warmer seasons, demi-season semi-overalls are designed. They should not only keep the child warm, but also be absolutely waterproof, because such clothes are worn both in the rain and under wet snow. Demi-season models can have a warm lining.
The material for sewing waterproof semi-overalls is treated with a special water-repellent compound, so that the child can painlessly stomp through the puddles or walk in the rain. Sometimes waterproof models are made not only of impregnated polyester, but also of membrane and rubber. Despite its rather thin appearance, rubber is highly durable and wear-resistant.

Knitted patterns are provided for the off-season. They will not save you from the wind, but they will keep you warm on a cool day. Knitted models can be worn under outerwear. Warmer options for such models are double-layer semi-overalls lined with soft cotton, flannel or fleece.
Of no small importance for semi-overalls is such a functional element as straps. They can be wide or narrow, fastened with buttons or buttons, made of elastic material. As a rule, they are equipped with a carabiner for self-adjustment of pants for the height and build of the child.
Semi-overalls are most often worn in sets with a warm jacket. They can be purchased separately, but it is more convenient and cheaper to purchase a set immediately. Such sets are sewn from different materials, for children of any age, they are calculated for different weather conditions, etc.
Bib and jacket sets are ideal for toddlers and older children.

Material and insulation
Depending on the season, semi-overalls can be made of thick, warm or thin, lightweight fabric. Sintepon, fluff, isosoft and other fillers are most often used as insulation.
Sintepon is one of the most popular and inexpensive heaters. It is very lightweight and is not designed for very cold temperatures. In addition, after several washes, its thermal insulation properties are noticeably reduced.
Thinsulate is a synthetic analogue of natural fluff in terms of its heat-saving properties. This filling is used in the highest quality models. Its only drawback is its rather high cost.
Holofiber is the most optimal option both in terms of price and quality. Very lightweight, warm, practical, keeps its shape perfectly.
Among natural heaters, goose down is in the first place. A semi-overalls with such filling are ideal for very low temperatures. If the winter temperature does not drop below –15 ° C, then there is no point in purchasing such a warm thing - the child will be hot. Goose down is very lightweight, durable, but can cause an allergic reaction.
For sewing demi-season models, polyester or nylon is chosen. They are very lightweight, durable and practical materials. They are highly resistant to dirt and abrasion. In addition, polyester prevents wind and moisture from penetrating under the garment. The material has hypoallergenic properties.
For lightweight models, thinner materials are chosen, for example, denim, woolen fabric, corduroy. Such models look great, they are quite practical, wear-resistant, and wear off quickly.
Knitted fabrics are ideal for early autumn - late spring. A jumpsuit like this is not meant for rainy days, but rather to keep warm in cool weather.
Light, absorbent fabrics are chosen as lining materials: cotton, knitwear or fleece.
Color and print
When it comes to outerwear for children, one of the main requirements for it is practicality. That is why demi-season and winter semi-overalls are most often made in dark, non-marking colors - blue, black, gray, brown. At the same time, semi-overalls do not look boring or dull, because the material used has a beautiful glossy shine, and the clothes themselves are often decorated with an interesting print or other decor.
There are several varieties of prints that are always popular. These are flowers, geometry, abstraction, hearts, funny animals, stars, toys, etc.
Over the past few years, one of the fashion trends has been the combination of several colors. Such fashion has not spared children's clothes. Semi-overalls and outerwear sets are often made in two or three contrasting shades. Most often, these are lilac, pink, light green, golden, blue, red and other colors.
As a decor, embroidery or applique is used with beads, rhinestones, shiny ribbon, braid, leather, fur, etc.
