As cute as it looksVery light weight rain jacket, with a warm fleece lining for the torso and head . Lining in the arms is not fleece, but more like polyester and breathable.Pros :-Good quality stitching and construction as with most Columbia products I've used in the past-Vibrant color-The hood had a little lip on the front that I think is nice to keep rain drops off the face, and seems more like a hat-Has two nice sized front pocketsCons:-The front of the jacket is much shorter than the back of the jacket. I really think this is just the style of the jacket and not a defect of some sort. It's fine, it still works and looks good, but it would be better if it was the same length all the way around. If it was a really windy day, the air could go inside the front of the jacket-There are also no bungee cords or velcro around the waist, wrists or the hood to close the openings in case of a lot of wind. The wrist area is partially elasticized, however.-Not enough reflective material, at least from what I saw in the day time.Overall : The black jacket is the best value if you don't mind dressing your toddler in black, but the colored jackets are better for the outdoors and of course more expensive. We do like the jacket, and will keep it, but please know the front is shorter than the back.We purchased the XXS which is size 4-5 in U.S. sizes . Our toddler (age 3) is tall for her age, and the arms fit a little long, but this is perfect as I wanted a jacket that would last this year and next year.It’s a nice light jacket. Wish the sleeves had the same light lining as the jacket body but otherwise I’m very satisfied with the purchase.*It is not as Fushia in person as it is in my pictures*This jacket is beautiful. Whilst browsing for fall / winter gear for my little girl I stumbled on this and fell in love with it. She's very girlie and loves pink and purple. I like dark colors because for every girlie thing about her there is a part that loves to paint her body with mud like she is going to war.This is a fantastic weight for spring and fall jacket, water resistant and fleece lined so it's definitely enough to keep the chill away, but not so much for them to get hot. We use jackets like on colder days too with more fleece layered beneath.My daughter is hard to pick out clothes for. She'll be 3 in March '19. She's always been very small for her age but she's also kind of awkward shaped. She has a longer torso and a big belly, so she sizes up tops before bottoms. She's somewhere in the range of 26lbs and 33/34". Some 2Ts fit her very small, while some 3Ts ru huge.I'd say this runs exactly how it should, with the exception of the hood being a bit too short. Unfortunately, I've ordered things from Columbia in the past that have run big, so I chose 2 instead of 3. So while this jacket fits, she will only get one season out of it.Bought this for my toddler she get hot quickly and this jacket works great for her no matter the weather!Perfect starter rain jacket for our little.Extremely packable (smaller than an envelope!), easy to use even when it's too big, and so durable it will last for years. Love this and would buy many!Fit smaller than I thought. Would get next size up. Granddaughter is 18 mths and got her the 2TMuy bonita chamarra el tamaño perfecto, mi niño ya tubo una igual cuando era mas pequeño y lo mismo la talla coincide perfecto con la edad, no le doy cinco estrellas solo porque no estoy seguro que sea impermeable
