He may be a few years older now but he still loves water and mud just as much as he did back then. A big reason why Puddle Jumpers are a necessity for us!
Who else has a kid that just canโt help themselves when there is mud and water to play in?

We believe that every kid should have the opportunity to play and explore, no matter what the weather is like outside. That`s why we`re dedicated to creating fun, practical, and affordable waterproof clothing that keeps your little ones dry and comfortable, rain or shine.
We know that parenting can be tough enough without having to worry about expensive and inconvenient waterproof gear. That`s why we`re committed to offering high-quality rainwear that doesn`t break the bank and is easy to use. Our products are designed with both kids and parents in mind, with features like easy zippers, elasticated hoods, and fun colours.
We believe that kids should be able to enjoy the great outdoors without restrictions, and that means having gear that can keep up with them. Our waterproof clothing is made to last, with durable materials that can withstand rough and tumble playtime, muddy puddles, and everything in between.

Have you heard of DWR? It`s short for Durable Water Repellant treatment and it`s applied to the fabric to make it water-resistant. The treatment causes water to bead up and slide off the fabric, preventing it from getting soaked. Interestingly, tumble drying clothes with DWR finish can help restore the treatment and extend the lifespan of your clothes. Just another great wee feature you`ll find on Puddle Jumpers.

Yesterday I mentioned the internal cuff on our Original Overalls. Well, here it is up close. From the outside, the trouser leg is straight and sits over the gumboot. Lift up the hem ๐ and you`ll find a hidden, elasticated cuff underneath. This can be tucked inside gumboots to add an extra layer of "the water ain`t getting in here" awesomeness. ๐

Hey parents of puddle magnets! ๐ Looking for some super practical overalls to keep your wee ones dry? We`ve got you covered! Our overalls come in 2 styles - original and fleece lined. Both styles are amazing with some awesome features, but they do have a few minor differences. Swipe to see an overview of these two styles. ๐

Happy Friday! We hope you`ve got a weekend jam-packed with fun and adventure.
For the extra little adventurers, give our Splashsuits a go - they are fully lined, waterproof and have taped seams, so water can`t seep through the seams, even if they decide to sit in a puddle. We think they`re pretty amazing!

Who doesn`t love a freebie? I`m going to choose one lucky customer from today`s orders and pop an extra something in their parcel. Customer will be chosen at random and I will try to tailor the freebie to their order, for matchy matchy sake!

Intro post. I haven`t done one in a while (cause they`re scary ๐
). 3 facts about me.....
1. I`m a very amateur tramper (that`s me on the Routeburn Track earlier this year). It was beautiful and every year I resolve to do more day walks and tramps. Maybe this year is my year!
2. I`m trained in pattern drafting and design (but pattern drafting is my passion) and love to sew. I recently converted my kids Playhouse into a teeny tiny sewing room. I still call it the Playhouse and I now use it more than they ever did.
3. I find the sound of scissors cutting through fabric oddly satisfying. That`s probably a good thing given my hobbies, but I didn`t realise not everyone liked that sound until my husband told me how irritating it was. Same goes for the sound of fabric ripping....

Who agrees? Once you`ve made up your mind to just get out there, it`s never as bad as you think it`ll be and can actually be quite fun. Well, "almost" never, cause we`ve had some pretty rough weather these last few months!

โThe West Coast has been living up to its reputation of being a bit damp the last few days. Perfect weather to head to The Playhouse (my sewing room) to see what the Aviator Hats look like with pink and denim lining.
I`ve added these options to the website for those of you that have kids that love pink or blue. ๐๐

๐ Slouchy Merino Beanies are now up on the website just in time for winter! These are another me-made special and the fact that my precious model (also me-made ๐) is happy to wear one that is not pink speaks volumes about how soft and comfortable they are!
They can be worn with the brim folded up for a more fitted look (like in the first photo) or left unfolded for a slouchy look (second photo) and are available in 5 different colours.
