[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son's school has returned and will be spending as much time outside as possible, in all kinds of weather. I would love recommendations on specific products/brands.

I'm thinking the obvious so far:

-[b]some kind of regular shoe that is waterproof or water-resistant - would specifically love recs on this one, my son is 6[/b]
-rain boots - [b]Bogs[/b]
-rain pants - [b]Polarn O Pyret[/b]
-rain coat - [b]Ditto[/b]
-the kinds of gloves where you can take off the fingertips
-hats - [b]POP makes a rain hat which is great for really rainy days on top of a hood[/b]

If we last into the winter:
-long johns - [b]Uniqlo heattech[/b]
-snow pants - [b]Polarn O Pyret[/b]
-waterproof snow boots - [b]Bogs - the kind with neoprene[/b]

What am I missing, and what specific products do you recommend?[/quote]

My responses in bold above. My kid is an outdoor school.
In general, Polarn O Pyret gear is very well made and recommended by outdoor programs. The wool balaclava is good for winter too.
For cold rainy fall days, their rain mittens are good too.[/quote]
