I am considering buying this (has anyone bought it for their dd?) - last knee length coat I got dd was from h&m it was brilliant, but they only do coats like that up to age 7-8 afaik.

If I do get one I can't decide which one to get either, I like them all.

I want a light waterproof coat for her, but it must be longer length.

tia.

Got DD one, age 8-9.
Black and pink checked on white.
£25, detatchable hood, waterproof, H&M.
this was a couple of weeks ago, so far, so good.

Was it long MLB? They don't have them in my nearest h&m, just ones that stop at waist.

I started a thread a while back about this

We walk to school and I want dd to have a waterproof that covers her pinafore (school uniform)

We're only allowed boring colours but I found these:

not really waterproof but long

this

and

this but not many sizes left (I wanted the blue

oh sorry!!

just realised your dd is 9 FiveOrangePips

shouldn't read so quickly

sorry - not much help!

Stillcounting · 31/03/2010 16:09

um, found this though

too floral?

Stillcounting · 31/03/2010 16:13

and this

but only goes up to 8-9 yrs

Stillcounting · 31/03/2010 16:15

It's a problem isn't it?

Why dc apparently become impervious to rain from the waist down, or, after the age of 8, I just don't know!!

Sorry, only just caught up.

Yes its below knee.

Purchased at H&M SW19.

Thank you.

It is strange that it is so hard to find such a thing, at least there are some options for dd, every coat I have seen for ds stops at the waist, so he gets soaked or I have to put waterproof trousers on him when I collect him from school, faff.

I think I will try the one from Viking Kids, dd likes the green, I like them all.
