Not sure if this is the correct place for this, but does anyone know where I might be able to find red or green (preferably unlogoed - so none with GAP blazened across the middle) body warmer / gilets in 5/6 and 7/8? Thanks!

Fat face had nice green ones.

Thanks ladies. The JL ones were a bit dull colours. Joules and Next don't have right colours. Ebay doesn't have any the right size / colour at th

Bloody computer.

At the mo. Will look at fat face. Boden have some quite nice ones that are blue with a green trim and brown with an orange trim (my children have colour coded themselves so I can't do hand me downs any more) but are out of stock.

Anyway, thanks for your help.

whimsicalname i am just about to send back the boden one in the blue/green in a size 5/6 so keep an eye on their website!

whimsicalname · 13/04/2012 10:22

Thanks Shelley - I need that one in the bigger size though! Blooming fussy children and their blooming fussy mummy. Out of interest, why are you sending it back? I've never bought anything from boden (except from charity shops...)

two reasons - it feels quite thin and not as padded as i imagined, although that will be fine for spring. also its just too big. DS is 4.7 so wanted to get it in a size big enough to last (boden prices being what they are these days) - its just swamping him. i do love boden for boys though.

have just looked on fat face and there is a lovely navy one in clearance, but too big for my DS - might be good for you?

Has anyone seen any in aqua?
I have a 3yo having meltdowns because he cannot fit into his 12-18mo JL gilet Hmm
TIA!

Try Lands End or Spotty Otter, pretty sure both do red. Gap do some without the logo as I've had a few red quilted ones for my boys. But would have recommended Boden if the quality still good, I've bought ones on eBay and still like new on 2nd handmedown.
