Casual hooded anoraks for 3yo and 5yo girls?

20 replies

They have what I would call raincoats (longer length things, fine for the city, shopping, walking to nursery etc), but I want more practical anoraks for them, for rainy days at the playground/park/beach, to wear with jeans. Showerproof, not totally flimsy. Know what I mean? Seen anything?

Thanks

millets

llbeanis an American site .I have had stuff from them but delivered to my mum in canada which she then sends to me.

Sorry not very practical suggestion -but they do deliver to the uk I think..if you're desperate.

franch · 24/05/2008 16:37

I feel I should be able to find something here, given our climate! The millets ones look good but are more cagouls than anoraks - I was looking for something slightly more substantial but not heavy ski jacket type things.

The LLBean one does look about right as it seems to have a lining ...

Their customer service is great (if you need any advice) and they deliver REALLY quickly.

Havent, I can't work out how thin/thick the Eco-Friendly Jackets or the Kiba Print Jackets are (links above) - do you have either of these?

decathlon waterproof with zip in fleece

I have the Kiba stuff for my two DS - it lasted really well for DS1 (2 winters) and now DS2 is wearing it and I have bought the next size up for DS1.

I have the Kiba "suits" - dungarees plus jacket.

The material is quite different to the packaway mac that I have - it's less rustly and thicker but it seems way more waterproof and drys really quickly. They are quite flexible - they have to be with the trousers.

HTH a bit?

thanks havent - I've ordered 2 jackets and a pair of wellies from that site

Sorry - I was away Sunday and yesterday - hope it wasn't too late. What did you order?

MargaretMountford · 27/05/2008 08:46

ds has a Regatta one, rolls up into a bag, nice and sturdy but not too thick

franch · 27/05/2008 14:25

I ordered the eco-friendly one, Havent - mainly because it has matching wellies which we needed. I contacted them and they were v good, as you said - apparently they're the same material as the Kiba ones so should be good.

Thanks again

thanks for posting the waterproof world site - is great. have been looking for new fleeces for dd1 and 2 for ages (used to get boden but havnet had them for ages it seems )
fab! and good price too

teamaster · 17/10/2011 16:34

macinasac.com

Nine colours, and sizes from 2/3 all the way to 11/13. No complaints about the price either....

moragbellingham · 17/10/2011 17:39

These H&M ones seem good - not as warm as the £29.99 ones but with a fleece underneath should be OK.
Lots of pink leftSmile which is unusual - not in stores BTW (any that I have visited).
