Did you know green is associated with good luck, good health and growth? All of the things we want for our little explorers, right?
And it's one of the most recognisable colours to the human eye, so it's perfect for spotting them in crowded locations.
But it’s not all about my colour, I’m a practical and versatile raincoat your child will actually want to wear. So whether their climbing trees or walking the puppy, I have all the features they'll need.
