Can anyone find me a winter coat for my daughter?

I’m trying to find a thick winter coat for my 3 year old. She’s quite tall and I like coats to cover bottoms so I want age 5-6. I don’t know whether I’m being really picky but while she’s little I’d like her to have one with pictures on. I feel she’s got years to wear black/navy/khaki and that’s what most of the shops seem to have.

I feel like I’ve looked on every online site I can think of. I liked a couple by JoJo Maman Bebe but they’re sold out in that size. Others that I think look quite nice look more like thin waterproof jackets with a fleece lining and she’s got one of them - I want a thick parka type coat for winter.

So I want, waterproof, no fur around the hood as I think it looks tatty quite quickly, thick, and some kind of design preferably in a bright, all over pattern. I’ll try to link to the two I like that are out of stock. Thank you!

I’ve found GAP have good warm winter coats for girls.

Iminaglasscaseofemotion · 07/10/2020 14:15

I wouldnjust get one of them in a smaller size. 5-6 will drown a 3 year old.

She had 4-5 last year aged 2 so will definitely fit in 5-6 this year.

Aren't the arms too long on 5-6?

My DD is 6 and I buy 5-6 but I always buy an A Dee Coat and the fur is detachable

Have you looked at John Lewis? Dd3 had a coat from there every year for about 5 years!

Next have some long warm winter coats.

KindergartenKop · 07/10/2020 19:36

Vertbaudet are usually good for super warm coats. Get a bigger size than usual though, they run a bit small.

Wheresmycider · 07/10/2020 19:40

Have you tried mountain warehouse?

H1978 · 07/10/2020 19:41

Joules so some gorgeous coats for toddlers

Asda or next

Thanks everyone, I’ve looked at the websites of everyone’s suggestions and think I’ve narrowed it down to two. This one from Sainsbury’s:

tuclothing.sainsburys.co.uk/p/Pink-Bunny-Fleece-Lined-Padded-Coat-%281-6-Years%29/137138756-Pink?searchTerm=:newArrivals&searchProduct=

Or this one from Boden:

www.boden.co.uk/en-gb/cosy-waterproof-parka-dusky-rose-pink-bunny/sty-g2341-pnk?cat=C1_S13_G2

I prefer the Boden as it has an all over print plus the fur is detachable, but I didn’t really want to spend that much and the Sainsbury’s one is a lot cheaper! Ha ha!

Thanks for all the help Smile

I just got dd a Boden one with a strawberry pattern. It's gorgeous and bright, seems great quality. I usually buy from Marks or Next but couldn't resist this one.
