How much outside time in freezing weather? Being judged!

Ds is 15 months old. We normally are outside for an hour in the morning, looking after my ponies. He tends to be in the pram, then we have a walk around the fields for a bit. We go out during the day often.

In the afternoon evening we tend to do a trike ride, walk about the garden, up the road or Park. Often a half hour walk outside before he has his dinner. A couple of people have mentioned that I won't be able to do this as it's cold. It is cold, and windy, but he has a variety of suitable clothing, and is a hot little body. He has thick joggers on, long vest, sweatshirt, socks, wellies, puffa type coat with hood. I havent put his mittens on as his hands are very warm. Surely this is OK?

People are insinuating that I should keep him inside in the warm. And that I'm bad for!'making' him go out. (he gets jittery with excitement when he sees his reins and wellies)

I agree with SunnySomer regarding brands, Polarn o Pyret is also worth looking at as they have real good quality, though on the costly side, inner and outer wear for babies and children.
