Outdoor shops - great for kids jackets

I'm not an outdoorsy person. When I hear the words "camp site" I think of something like gaydar.co.uk But anyway, outdoor equipment shops have a great selection of plain navy jackets.And they are ususally quite waterproof. And have a hood.


Here are some I found online:

Looks cute, but you probably have to check the colour in store. Looks a bit light, doesn't it?

Peter Storm 3 in 1 jacket for£30.00 at Blacks

This one on the other hand looks a bit too dark. (Another sigh)

You might not like the ones I have listed here, but my point is: If you're looking for a plain navy jacket to go with your kid's school uniform, it's a good idea to just pop into an outdoor store and browse what they have there.
