Regular bibs only cover your baby's chest, but the Bumkins also protects the shoulders, arms, sides, and legs. This saves you the time and energy spent on changing your baby's clothes after every meal time.
The tuck-away feature works great for when you are eating outside and you are nowhere near the laundry where you usually put your dirty bibs straight to. You can simply fold it into the tuck-away pouch to store until you get home.
