These are OK, good to see UK info on here, but I prefer the ones without the little legs ie the leg holes are diagonal at the bottom like underpants, like a baby bodysuit / popper vest.
You can get this kind from Racketys.
i know what you mean, but i'd wanted this type for yonks, after seeing similar on Amazon by 4Care (too pricey for me, with the P&P):

to be honest, i went off crotch fastenings yonks ago as, more so with bulky/saggy trad nappies, they're too awkward to fasten by yourself. i thus opted for Rackety's Joey vest, which fasten along the tummy:
i tarted-up that by myself, btw
.
anyway, the newly bought vest has not long since arrived and it's not bad. obviously, you can tell that it's designed for dispies rather than trads. the material is a cotton/elastane mix, so it's stretchy. the sleeves are a bit short, but they always seem to be on these types of garments; don't know why that should be as sleeves are always good for wiping your nose, and some of us are snottier than most :biggrin:
downsides, apart from the sleeves, are the crotch fastening, especially as there's more poppers, and that the sewn seams are on the inside, next to the skin, rather than on the outside (where they should be, grr).
a side note would be a concern about how the sizings relate to those with Down's, who tend to be stockier/chubbier than their non-Down's peers. going a size up would obviously be the solution, but for a 14 year old???
overall, not bad and worth a punt if you can fit into the age range.
quick update: the supplier also supplies the Wonsie via it's own website:
