boys coat

Can anyone point me in the direction of a decent boys coat for my 3 year old?

I don't really like anorak/puffa style so I am after something classic, probably wool and buttons.

Obviously despite the cold weather the websites are full of shorts and t-shirts.

Thanks

here

Not coming up with much else in the right size unfortunately...Ebay?

nancydrewrocks · 19/01/2010 09:19

Thanks mrskitty.

Not ideal but I don't hate it. I just want something childlike and not man-thuggish IYKWIM.

Ebay a no go. Land in UK on Saturday and reckon we will need something soon!

We got DS a lovely navy blue duffel coat from designers at Debenams, its got toggle buttons and a zip hidden underneath and it came with a lovely tartan scarf. Everyone comments on how smart is looks. He looks so cute in it, especially with his skinny jeans and a wee shirt. He wore it Christmas day

I think it cost about £35 but not sure, DP paid for it.

My DS also has a wool navy duffle from Debenhams, it's JuniorJ. I believe they also do it in brown. Cosy and classic. Just had a peek on the website and can't find it, but they had them instore the other day, I think they were reduced to £22 or so??

No, I wasn't sold on the Vertbaudet one either but elsewhere seemed either sold out in anything over 2yrs or just totally yuck. Hope you find something decent - and if you do, post here so I can get too!

Is there nothing in Boden or Cyrillus?

or Hackett?

serinBrightside · 19/01/2010 18:10

There is a nice navy one in Cyrillus in the sale but still is 90odd euros!! It does have real horn buttons though.

This from Monsoon? Or this from ASOS? Or this if you have the budget...

BHS did have lovely grey wool ones - like a duffle but shorter

also one and one more in M&S

nancydrewrocks · 19/01/2010 19:13

Thanks everyone.

Debenhams are out of stock of everything suitable online.

Serin Boden only have full on summer stuff and I have not heard of Cyrillus...

*Tethersend I love the monsoon duffle and the expensive one is very little lord fauntleroy - which I rather like but DH would not have under any circumstances!

mrsbadger first one was just what I was after but sadly out of stock.

Must say it is terribly helpful only being able to but shors and swimwear in Jan!

I got DS the M&S one MrsBadger linked to from the local store. It is a lovely coat and always gets comments. Can you check if your local M&S has any in stock?
