Lightweight Zip-Up Jacket with Hood and Pockets, Ages 1 to 7 Years
This zoo animal hooded jacket packs a whole cast of characters onto one jacket, a smiling fox, a maned lion, a bear, a zebra-striped pony and a cat, mixed in with fruit, flowers and a cheerful sun. It is light enough for a mild morning, has a hood for a sudden shower, and gives your daughter plenty to point at and name on the way to nursery or school.

Why Girls Love It (and Parents Do Too)
Where most character jackets stick to one animal, this one turns the whole thing into a mini zoo, with a different face to spot in almost every direction, a fox here, a bear there, a lion peeking out from the pocket flap. That kind of variety tends to hold a younger child’s attention far longer than a single repeating motif, and gives you something new to talk about on the walk to nursery each morning. It sits well within the wider range of trendy girls clothing that favours playful, story-led prints.
For parents, it does the job of an everyday spring and autumn jacket without the price tag of the bigger brands, and the busy, colourful print is forgiving of the odd mark or scuff from playground use.
Colours and Print Detail
The jacket has a crisp white base printed with a fox, a lion, a bear, a zebra-striped pony, a cat, a crocodile and a giraffe, alongside apples, strawberries, small flowers and a smiling sun. The hood is lined in a soft mint blue that peeks out around the neckline, and the zip pull is a simple silver tone. Both front pockets are finished with a playful lion mane style flap, tying the whole print together.

Size Guide
Use your daughter’s height and chest measurement below rather than age alone to choose the best fit, since children of the same age can vary quite a bit in build. For sizing across the rest of our girls’ range, our full girls size guide has more detail.

Frequently Asked Questions
What ages does this jacket fit?
It is designed for girls aged 1 to 7 years. Use the height and chest measurements in the size chart above rather than age alone, since children of the same age can vary in build.
Is this jacket waterproof?
It is a lightweight, showerproof jacket suited to mild weather, wind and light rain, rather than a fully waterproof raincoat for heavy downpours. For everyday school runs, nursery drop-offs and light showers it does the job well.
What is the jacket made from?
The outer is polyester with a soft polyester lining inside, making it lightweight enough to wear on its own in mild weather or layered over a jumper when it is cooler.
Does it have pockets?
Yes, there are two front pockets with a lion mane style flap, useful for keeping small hands warm or storing little treasures found on a walk.
How do I wash it?
It is machine washable with similar colours. Do not use bleach, hang it to dry rather than tumble drying, and use a cool iron only if needed.
Is the hood detachable?
No, the hood is permanently attached to the jacket, so there is nothing extra to lose or reattach.
