Walking Blanket
By Charla Brown
November 11, 2010
When my daughter is older and pontificates about how she had to walk a 1/2 mile to school in the snow back in 2010... she won't be lying. Complex logistics at a rural charter school involve just that and this jacket is going to keep her warm and toasty. I bought a size larger and the sleeves easily folded up so I know I will get 2-3 years of use out of it. High quality construction and puffy down. The length goes past her knees which will protect from driving snow. It's going to be a great winter.
