I'm sure you'd be fine with a jj cole one though! Not the urban though, I personally don't think that's warm enough for winter. Or maybe check a local listserve? What area did you end up moving to? If you're by me, I have a GREAT local list serve--I'll wall you :)</p> <p>Hunters are great for walking around, although I guess running can be a little awkward in them? They're ok on ice--not amazing, but they have okay traction, in my experience. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/city-momswhats-your-winter-must-haves-for-you-amp-kiddos#post-1891600 Tue, 07 Oct 2014 11:30:58 +0000 plantains 1891600@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@luckypenny: yup, they have great traction in my experience but I have never had real snow boots so don't have anything to compare to. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/city-momswhats-your-winter-must-haves-for-you-amp-kiddos#post-1891596 Tue, 07 Oct 2014 11:29:34 +0000 luckypenny 1891596@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hilsy85: I really want one but they are so $$$! Do you think they are that much better than say the jj cole bundle me?</p> <p>@plantains: are hunters ok fur walking around? What about on ice? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/city-momswhats-your-winter-must-haves-for-you-amp-kiddos#post-1891439 Tue, 07 Oct 2014 10:44:45 +0000 mrsjazz 1891439@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A Bundleme or some other type of stroller blanket<br /> Stroller muff/gloves for your hands</p> <p>Waterproof snow boots<br /> Some other type of boot (LO has Ugg-type boots)<br /> Snow suit or snow pants at least<br /> A few sets of hats./gloves because we always lose some. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/city-momswhats-your-winter-must-haves-for-you-amp-kiddos#post-1891407 Tue, 07 Oct 2014 10:31:25 +0000 plantains 1891407@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Second the Hunter wellies. DD also wears Uggs whenever it isn't snowing for the warmth and comfort factor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/city-momswhats-your-winter-must-haves-for-you-amp-kiddos#post-1891402 Tue, 07 Oct 2014 10:27:46 +0000 Anagram 1891402@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got the new Polar jjcole bunting--it's also very warm and adjustable sized like the 7 am enfant. But now that my LO is walking, I know I will have to invest more in actual winter clothes--last year in the stroller she was so bundled up and never got mittens or scarves or any of that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/city-momswhats-your-winter-must-haves-for-you-amp-kiddos#post-1891370 Tue, 07 Oct 2014 10:11:29 +0000 lamariniere 1891370@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Warm, waterproof winter boots for your older LO and a snowsuit for the baby. A footmuff for the stroller. If you do a lot of baby wearing, maybe one of those baby wearing coats for you? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/city-momswhats-your-winter-must-haves-for-you-amp-kiddos#post-1891368 Tue, 07 Oct 2014 10:11:10 +0000 hilsy85 1891368@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>7 am enfant 212 evolution stroller muff and stroller gloves--amazing!!</p> <p>Zutano fleece booties for the younger baby. </p> <p>For me, hunter boots with fleece wellie socks--so warm and water/snow proof. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/city-momswhats-your-winter-must-haves-for-you-amp-kiddos#post-1891342 Tue, 07 Oct 2014 10:00:57 +0000 luckypenny 1891342@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's our first real winter and I want to know what your must haves are for surviving winter in the city. We walk everywhere and take the subway everyday. Kids will be 2.5 and 9 months old. </p>
