Recommend me a super toasty winter coat for infant school DS

[Aveena]

As title. Don’t really want to traipse round the shops looking and the sales let me down last year! Budget ideally max £30, age 5. Must be at least shower resistant. Style not imperative - bonus points for yellow or a nice red (visible!) but navy or olive would do if needs be. Any suggestions? I’m going round in circles.

This one is nice from H and M!!

Ps. It's a screen shot, sure how to send a link!

Have a look at Trespass website. Fantastic value. Ski jackets are especially toasty.

Matalan do some really great coats

Next. This one's really warm

shesells saw that - out of stock in his size Will go check the other options now - thanks for recommending.

I got a really good one from John Lewis a couple of years back for ds. Lasted 2 winters. Fake fur around the hood and bright blue.

Decathlon
Go Outdoors
Mountain Warehouse

The best kids’ anoraks are from Boden . They wash and wash and stay like new so one off EBay would still be great. I couldn’t get over how good they were for my two boys.

Good colours too.

John Lewis - daughter has a lovely one with fur hood for £35. Lovely and warm and looks much more expensive

Tresspass 3 in 1 coat from Amazon - DSs is bright blue with reflective bits but they had a few other colours too. (Bit over budget at £43 but comes up big, my last one lasted 2 years)

Dd has one from Hatley which survived reception and is ready for year 1 now.

I've just bought this for my 5 year old. It's lovely.

Look at Lands End. The rare thing - a coat that is both warm and waterproof (rather than the useless 'showerproof'). Big sales on at the moment, and they do ones that expand as the children grow! My DC have them and love them.

My ds is 16 now.

I've been buying his coats from next since he started school. They've always lasted 2 years.

His current one was twice the price at £60 but as it's adult size it'll last longer. It still looks brand new after 18 months.

Trespass. I always buy a size ahead in the March sale. They do great discounts and you can then keep it until the winter.

We've had some great coats from Morrison's over the years.
Ds currently has a Tesco one that's in its second year and looks brand new not easy when you're being worn by a very rough and tumble 8 year old

Here's the Next link btw. Couldn't figure out how to link yesterday

Look at Lands End.

You know what - one of those places it would never occur to me. Thanks. Will make a mental note about March for the Trespass sale as well.

We've had some good coats from Zara and also fat face.

Trespass is one of our to-go shops for good winter clothes, DD is a Scout so it needs to be warm and waterproof, ski jackets are one of the best we found.

Decathlon or GoOutdoors are good value for money as well.

Pressed to soon, according to friends Aldi and Lidl often have ski clothes early in the year and their stuff is supposedly good as well.

Agree with others, I always go for the outdoor shops. Warm , waterproof, plenty that look good too. Mountain warehouse, Trespass etc.
