[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does your 4th grader even like the coat? It's something Kate Middleton would wear. Kids don't always like "nice" clothes if they are very different from what the other kids are wearing.[/quote] Agree. I have a Barbour. I’m assuming you mean one of their traditional waxed jackets? They are great for rainy days an adult on hikes, running earrands, walking to work, but I’d never put a kid in one for the school playground. They are quite structured and it really isn’t appropriate outerwear for recess IMO. They aren’t warm alone and need layering and no way could you traverse the monkey bars in one[/quote] I have on as well and agree with this. I don't think the "used" part matters as I've had mine for a LONG time - but it doesn't seem something a young boy would wear to the playground and to run around.[/quote]
