I had to buy a
"I had to buy a nice Green vest because the Spicy Chilli was sold out in this Size, pity… Great value, and so warm for Autumn-Winter months."
Kids Vest
"Great for our little granddaughter"
Vest
"This epiq down vest is fabulous, so warm and comfortable my grandson loves it, so much better than bulky jumpers and coats."
Great vest
"Such good quality and lovely colour. I sized up for my little one to ensure we’ll get lots of wear. It fits pretty well already so I would say this runs a touch small."

Warm, good quality vest for kids
"I have bought this vest for each of my grandchildren, from size 6 to 12. They all like it, found this vest warm, versatile, ideal for layering in winter. This is an essential winter item for children enjoying outdoor activities when they don’t need an overcoat but still need to keep warm. We are all happy with the purchase."

"Warm vest, beautiful color"
A must-have for active kids
"Really warm and good fit, not so puffy as to get in the way. Bought size 4 for my average sized 3 year old, keeps her toasty but free to move her arms for climbing and running around in the cold."
