For example, DS wore a size 4 last year when he was 3 and will wear the same coat again this winter while 4. It was a bit big last winter but the elastic bands on the arms made it fit ok. I know there are probably plenty of cheaper car seat safe coats out there but I don't trust myself to know which are safe. I try to buy neutral colors so that my future daughter (I'm 39 weeks pregnant now) can use the same coats when she gets old enough.

Last year and the year before, we did the Trimble jacket, this year I got the down sweater jackets. I buy ahead on sale and then recoup about 50% on resale, so I usually pay out of pocket about $30 for each coat!

This year I got DD a puffy coat for $4 because the zipper was broken and I fixed it with pliers. DS got a Carter's slim puffy coat for $8. They also have some fleece hoodies that do well for lots of the time.

It's Eco-friendly, soft, warm and super comfy. I was so happy with the quality, I had to get her a jacket from the same brand this year. imadreamer on "Where do you get your lo's winter coat from?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-get-your-los-winter-coat-from#post-2644786 Fri, 28 Oct 2016 20:55:40 +0000 imadreamer 2644786@https://boards.hellobee.com/ North Face Perrito. I purchased it on the NF site last year, and this year I bought it during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. It's carseat friendly. They also have NF fleece for the fall/spring. mrsrain on "Where do you get your lo's winter coat from?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-get-your-los-winter-coat-from#post-2642937 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 19:46:43 +0000 mrsrain 2642937@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Consignment!

She hates super puffy coats that she can't move in so the Columbia and NF are nice because they are still warm but lightweight. I buy a size up so it can last two years since these brands are pricier. twodoghouse on "Where do you get your lo's winter coat from?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-get-your-los-winter-coat-from#post-2642859 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 16:48:10 +0000 twodoghouse 2642859@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Their "going out into the snow" coats are from Gap..

I wanted a Patagonia one, but I just couldn't justify $100 for only 1 year of use! dc yoga bee on "Where do you get your lo's winter coat from?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-get-your-los-winter-coat-from#post-2642688 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 13:48:53 +0000 dc yoga bee 2642688@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I got DD a nice one from Osh Kosh outlet. It was listed as new online, and I happened to see it at the outlet with no obvious defects. I sized up to a 2T, and hopefully it gets us through the winter. It's like a parka. Winters get cold here! Now I just need to find her snowboots. caterw on "Where do you get your lo's winter coat from?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-get-your-los-winter-coat-from#post-2642670 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 13:32:07 +0000 caterw 2642670@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Costco! It doesn't get super cold here so the little puffers they sell for $20 are fine for the two- three snowstorms we will have. DD actually asked for the exact coat that she outgrew from last year hahaha (and they have a baby snowsuit that matches it we will buy for DD2 when she gets here). looch on "Where do you get your lo's winter coat from?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-get-your-los-winter-coat-from#post-2642600 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 12:34:43 +0000 looch 2642600@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @Truth Bombs: Thank you!

It doesn't get too cold here so no need for a heavy duty winter jacket. They only really use it when we drive to the mountains to see snow.
