The Best Fit Sheepskin Footmuff for your Bugaboo Donkey
When it comes to choosing a footmuff for the Bugaboo Donkey, the Donkey seat shares very similar proportions with the Bugaboo Fox, a model we've fitted and tested our sheepskin footmuffs in. This gives us a reliable basis for recommending the footmuffs that we know work particularly well with this style of Bugaboo seat.
We've used our Bugaboo Fox fitting photos throughout this guide to show the coverage and overall look of each option.
If you're using your Donkey in duo or twin mode, you'll need one footmuff for each seat.
Our top pick for the Bugaboo Donkey is the Baa Baby Original. Based on its fit in the very similar Bugaboo Fox seat, the Original offers a neat, compact fit, with the bottom of the footmuff sitting comfortably within the seat without any unnecessary overhang.
Fully lined with Merino sheepskin, it's a good choice if you want plenty of warmth without adding too much bulk to the seat. The top section also zips off completely to leave a sheepskin pram liner for the warmer months.
For a little more growing room, we'd recommend the Baa Baby Luxe. It's a longer footmuff than the Original, so it will hang over the frame more than the Original.
It has a shaped seat section designed to help keep it securely positioned despite the additional length.
The Luxe also has an extra zip opening at the bottom, so longer legs or muddy boots can pop out rather than being tucked inside. This makes it particularly useful as your child gets older.
As with the Original, the top section can be zipped off completely to leave a sheepskin pram liner for use through the warmer months.

FAQs
Yes - sheepskin is naturally thermostatic and breathable and all of the footmuffs at Baa Baby also have the advantage of converting into a pram liner for the warmer months.
With all our footmuffs here at Baa Baby there is the option to take off the top cover to leave a pram liner. This can be achieved easily by zipping off the top cover and storing it throughout the warmer seasons. This leaves the bottom layer of sheepskin which is secured in the pram seat by the harness straps.
Yes, all of our sheepskin footmuffs are OEKO-TEX certified for the ultimate in safety for your little one. Sheepskin is naturally breathable and thermostatic so will keep your little one cosy without overheating
Yes they are - though we find that most parents won't need to wash them. Sheepskin is very forgiving and naturally dirt repellant. For any stains and spills simply leave them to dry and brush out with a wire brush. A good airing, shake and brush is usually all that your footmuff will need but if you do need to wash your footmuff then detailed instructions can be found here
Yes they are ! - with mother nature and your baby’s safety in mind our footmuff is both waterproof and windproof using BIONIC-FINISH® ECO rather than harsh chemicals traditionally used.
Our footmuffs are suitable up to 3 years, however this will always be dependent upon the size of your child is the largest. Our Baa Baby Luxe is the largest size we offer. It also has the benefit of a double zip opening at the bottom for muddy feet and longer legs to poke out. Ultimately you will also need to ensure that your pram is big enough to accommodate a larger footmuff as they are longer in length.
We know there isn’t a ‘one size fits all’ when it comes to your child and your pram so we are delighted to offer you the choice of four different footmuffs and show you just how they look in the pram so you can make an informed decision before you purchase.
