My husband and I really love the Joie Versatrax pushchair and carry cot but have noticed it doesn't come with a foot muff and Joie don't sell one. Has anyone found a universal one that works and matches the colours of the pushchairs (we like the grey and green colours) or is it really necessary to have a foot muff?
We're first time parents due in July so just trying to make the right decision.
Thank you!

I think Smyths do a universal foot muff! I’d highly recommend one, my little girl was a june baby so no need in the carrycot. But when she went into the pram part, it was winter and she would have just kicked a blanket off. And even with a pram suit, she still needed a foot muff over her

Footmuffs are great for winter but I doubt you’d need one before that. A blanket would be fine and a jacket if it’s chillier. There’s some good universal ones though if you decide to get one x

We have this pushchair in grey and I got a red kite universal footmuff which we’ve been pleased with. It came up on a few recommended lists as the best budget footmuff. Xx

You’ll definitely be able to find foot muffs to fit this pram. But as you’re having a summer babe, you don’t need one yet - I’d hold off until the autumn x

Thanks everyone 😊

We have this pushchair in the greeny colour and got a grey universal footpuff from vinted. Our baby was born last April, so we didn't get one or really need it till Octoberish xx

Footmuffs are great for winter! But you can hold off getting one until closer to cold weather. We put it on the stroller once it hits 30 and just leave it on til spring.

I got a universal foot muff from Aldi a while back in the special buys but I bet you can buy the same one alone somewhere. It was the My Babii one and it’s really good. Super cosy and I think I only paid less than £20 for it. The one for my pushchair would have cost over £50 x

Universal ones work great x

Joie did bring a footmuff out for the versatrax, to purchase separately
