It's Tommy Hilfiger and my friend's friend who bought it says it seems to be genuine. It's marked 49.50, so this is a really great price. But is it nerdy?

I think it's cute, but personally for 15 bucks I'd rather get an outfit from carters. But if you like it and the price is good for you, get it. Overalls are a classic.

I think it's cute, but would diaper changing be annoying?

It's 9.60 from a different seller. I didn't look at the price when I posted the link. Is Carter's better than Tommy Hilfiger?

There are snaps at the crotch for easy diapering.

It's for an infant. What difference does it make?

Long story, but this particular infant is scrutinized by many secular professionals who see him as an example of how frum people treat their kids. So he has to be clean and well dressed at all times.

It is nerdy, but I doubt secular professionals would notice that.

Lots of people care that their children should be dressed stylish. I personally care very much.

If this is the reason, anything new, clean, and well fitting will do. And weather appropriate.

Its a cute classic, but not trendy. If as mentioned above, it's a copy, then I don't care for the "H". I'd either get the "real" thing, or something that's not trying to copy and cute in its own right.

Perhaps not, but I care for myself too. Just how nerdy is it? I assume you wouldn't put it on your baby?

No I would not put it on my baby. But if you like, then buy it.

Why are "secular professionals" scrutinizing your child's clothing? Who cares what they think? Are these secular *fashion* professionals?

FWIW, it looks (to me anyway), like the fabric might be stiff, rather than soft and cuddly.

But I'm not secular, so perhaps my opinion is not relevant here.

Why don't you post this same question on a secular forum if you want secular opinions?

Not sure what got your goat here, but I don't want "secular opinions." I was just explaining why I care how my baby dresses. Call it avoiding chillul Hashem, if you wish. This is not the time and place to go into detail.

If that's the case, go with neat and put together rather than nerdy vs stylish.
I love overalls because they are a cute classic style.
If you will be around more trendy people, choose something trendier. But you're baby will look adorable in this.

Add cute socks or robeez.

Overalls and polo shirts are classic. No problem with the general style.

I don't care for prominent logos (the designer should pay the wearer for all that advertising!) and especially not fake logos.

Not sure what "cute" and "nerdy" mean on this website. If by "cute" you mean adorable and age-appropriate for a young child, the outfit is just fine. If it means super-fashionable in a way that the most discriminating fashionistas would approve - probably not, with a fake logo.

If you are trying to give a good impression of Jewish child-rearing, a clean, happy, comfortably-dressed child will be an excellent ambassador. A child wearing a scratchy, stiff, uncomfortable outfit will not. As far as whether or not the viewer will appreciate seeing designer clothing on a baby - that will vary tremendously. As they say, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
