“This jacket is very lightweight, but still warm, which will make it nice to travel with.
I also have the Ororo hoodie, and I appreciate that this coat uses the same battery pack.
My kid said the heat on the back feels really warm.
The pockets have a snap-closure; I don't think my kid is ever going to bother to snap the pockets closed. But my kid *really* likes hoods so I wanted to try the coat with a hood, even though it didn't have zip up pockets.
I bought it a size up for my kid because 1) that is what was available and 2) I'm hoping it is a coat he will wear for a while.”
Thank you so much for your sincere and detailed sharing! We are extremely happy that the heating effect on the back of the product makes children feel good. This is also the most important goal of our children's line products. You mentioned that the batteries are compatible with the ororo hoodie, which is indeed a convenience we deliberately retained during the design. It can help families save a lot of trouble of charging and matching. We hope this heated jacket with a hat can accompany him through several warm and comfortable winters. Once again, thank you for your trust and understanding!
“I own several Ororo products and can't tell you how many times my kids have tried to snuggle into my vest with me, when it's cold outside -- so I was all over ordering these jackets for my two boys for Christmas, when the kids line was finally released.
Both boy's love their jackets and have been wearing them everyday to school. The heat works well and of course, the lighted button attracts plenty of attention -- so many teachers and students have asked about them and I've now heard from two of our friends that they've ordered them for their kids.
Overall, the jackets are good quality. I wish they were a little more water repellant (especially living in Seattle), but they clean up nicely and have kept both boys warm.
I do feel the jacket is a little big, even with following the size guide -- but I'd rather it be too big than too small...hopefully this just means more time to use them with growing kids!
Net/net: so happy Ororo launched the kids line and I'm looking forward to what other styles they come out with in the future.”
“Customer service is amazing with you guys. I've been purchasing your products for years and I have so many of them. I'm super excited for your kids line collection!”
