boys boden coats?

[roastedfox]

thinking about ordering this www.bodenpreview.co.uk/en-gb/Boys-Coats-Jackets/25039/Boys-Snowboard-Jacket.html for ds. never had a boden coat before so just wondering if they are any good and warm for winter. thanx

My dses have the fllece-lined anoraks, which I'd say are very good value. Warm, washable, hardwearing, big enough for layers underneath and seem to last for two years. What's not to like?

i buy both my boys the boden snowboard jacket every year or 2. They wash up nicely and dry quickly. Usually they are an over the head style, which i like as my son will never do a coat up, younger children do need help putting it on though.

I think they are warm enough for cold winter days,like the fact that they arent bulky so can still be worn in the car. my son says this coat helps him run fast, the heavy ones weigh him down. When we had the snow i made sure he wore a fleece underneath, both my boys are skinny thins that feel the cold but were fine in these coats, well last years version.

You have reminded me i must place an order.

People rave about them on here, but I have bought my son's winter coat in Zara the last two years running and it pisses on the Boden one he was given by the MIL. Fraction of the price, too.
