I left his beautiful blue Didriksons Camden jacket behind when we were skiing recently and it hasn't turned up in lost property :( He had only worn it a few times...

He is quite small for his age and the Didriksons one was size 90cm. I can find the same jacket in the same size for sale, but not really any point buying the same size because he will be 4 by next winter and hopefully won't still fit into an age 2 coat!

So please recommend me something I can buy and use for the rest of the season, but will still fit next season. He is only about 93cm tall, slim, and very blond.

Dd is 2.3 amd has h&m ski wear. One all in one and a pair of salopettes with a jacket.

Really lovely quality and this os her second ywar in them. Strong possibility theyll do next winter too.

Thanks, off to have a look.

Meant to attach a photo of his old jacket, it was only £20 at the end of last season.

Looks like I've missed the clearance ant H&M for ski jackets!

I wonder if it is worth a look in the nearest h&m...?

Columbia stuff is nice, but small sized. DS has Columbia snowsuits, but he's not big enough to ski yet - next season. My DNs have Dare2b stuff, which my dsis says is good.

The end of season sales will be starting. Think brighams and tiso already have.

I got a ski jacket from h&m in the sale last week for ten pounds! They may not have them online but they still have them in the shops, my local store had loads. I got one for ds4 it's green with animals on it. He has had loads of compliments on it.

I got some fab outfits for dd aged 3 off ebay. The best one was a tog24 jacket. The size 3-4 was too big (saved for next year or maybe the year after) so we then went back and found a 2-3 which was perfect.
