Kids waterproofs

[sheeplikessleep]

Looking for my 3 year old DS. They seem very expensive, but he loves puddle jumping so want to get ideally trousers/jacket!
Any recommendations (or indeed any to avoid) very much appreciated.
Thanks

I bought an all-in-one waterproof suit for my DD aged 2 from Go Outdoors, was about £14 I think and worth every penny, even if she falls over/lies down having a tantrum she is still dry.

Do you have an outlet shopping centre near you?

The waterproof all-in-ones (regatta, tresspass etc) are very good. Put warm clothes/ fleece underneath and let him go!!

I got DS a snow suit from the tip shop for £1 and boil washed and washed with waterproofing stuff (£5ish), Good as new and warm and dry.

I've bought Togz waterproof dungarees from eBay: shop.ebay.co.uk/?_from=R40&_trksid=p5197.m570.l1313&_nkw=togz&_sacat=See-All-Categories a couple of times now and they're great - totally waterproof and last ages because of the adjustable bib.

I like the dungarees because they're good for wet summer days as well as snowy winter ones (just up the layers plus appropriate jacket), but the all-in-ones look great too.

thanks all for posting.

eddiesteddy - i have bought an all-in-one in the past, but now he is a little older, i thought separates might give more flexibility?

mumbarthedoor and suzikettles - good suggestions, thank you. i'll look those up.

thanks!

I got my 5 and 3 year olds waterproof trousers from a website called Muddy Puddles. They have been fantastic this winter and saved many trousers from being ruined as they love being outside. From memory they were around 15 pounds.

My dc' use seperates - i do find them more useful and the trousers are great for on the beach when it's slightly chilly enough for a jumper on top. We have bought a few times from vikingskids they have rain sets by didriksons and are excellent. In the past have also had a Set made by Rukka which was also great quality.

Muddy Puddles, you could try and get some on ebay, DS has waterproof Dungarees that are great.
