Kids' Jackets & Coats
Kids' jackets and coats at MINOTI run from newborn to age 15, for girls and boys. The range pairs warmer coats for winter school runs with lighter jackets for cool spring and autumn mornings. Baby sizes are for pram and carrier days. Older sizes suit children who walk to school, play outside at break and need a coat that goes over a school jumper.
Every coat is sized by height in centimetres. Measure your child standing and pick the size at or just above their height, which leaves room for a jumper underneath. A 4-year-old usually takes 110 cm and a 10-year-old 146 cm. A gilet, which some shops call a body warmer, adds warmth over a hoodie without bulky sleeves. Check the care label on each coat before washing.

Your questions answered
MINOTI, a British childrenswear brand, sells kids' jackets and coats for girls and boys from newborn to age 15, in centimetre sizes that follow a child's height, such as 110 cm for a 4-year-old.
What size coat should I buy for a 7-year-old?
Most 7-year-olds take a 128 cm coat. If your child is tall for their age, or you want room for a thick jumper underneath, go up to 134 cm. Check their height against the size shown on the product page.
Should a baby wear a padded coat in a car seat?
No. Take a thick or padded coat off before strapping a baby into a car seat, as it can leave the harness too loose. Once they are buckled in, lay the coat over the harness. The same goes for older children in a 5-point harness.
