PSA Primary coats are $22.50 right now Anyone have one? How do they compare to the Gap Prima loft kids coats? Hoping that it is thin/squishy enough to be car seat safe?

I have a puffer bunting from primary. I’m squeamish about puffy in the car seat so I don’t use it that way, but it’s not super thick. It’s also not waterproof, so doesn’t work as well in snow which was disappointing for us because it’s very snowy here. DD got a wet butt the few times we used it for snow play. A jacket would probably be ok, her clothes have never gotten wet above the waist, but could if your kiddo like to roll around in the snow. If we had paid anywhere near full price I would’ve sent it back, but it’s a decent back up to her Columbia snowsuit at the $25 I paid for it.

We have the lightweight primary puffer. It’s not a heavy winter coat-we use it in California when it’s in the 50s. We’ve used it in drizzle and it’s been fine. No complaints. I think it’s thin enough to use in a carseat but I haven’t tried.

@bees_knees: Hi! I’m on my third light weight primary puffer for my son and I LOVE THEM. Perfect for booster seat. Perfect for preschool. Good price. Never had an issue with wear.

Thanks all! I think I might go ahead and order one! It’s mostly just for walking into preschool We live in (snowy, really friggin cold) MT so we have several heavier weight jackets for winter play! (And if anyone needs an affordable heavy jacket, we love the Snozu ones from Costco every fall! They are like $20 and include a hat. I think we have one in every size, including baby snowsuits and for DS1, who is out of toddler sizes, we grabbed the Gerry 3 in 1 winter coat from Costco and it has also been great!)

We just got them and they're great! Mostly bc my girls will actually wear them, unlike heavier coats that are stiffer and harder for them to run around. Def not heavyweight though, we switch to warmer coats and/or layer with a sweatshirt when it dips into the 30s.

@bees_knees: I'm glad you bought them. We have one and love it (DS is on year two of wearing it and it's holding up great). They wash amazingly and I personally totally think they're thin enough to wear in the car seat.
