    Looks like great stuff! I really like the Benny jacket and the waterproof mitts, perfect for this Vancouver weather!

    We all need to get ready for those April showers, don’t we? To help us out we would buy the Benny and the Ollie. Lots of waterproofness without the added fleece (we have enough layers and fleece at home).
    But especially, i am liking those hats – plain and sensible and rain worthy – no flowers or trucks or trains to have to match up with other items.
    It makes me want to go to the Endownment lands with the kids today!

  3. Gwen on February 8th, 2010 12:28 pm

    I am torn between the full muddy buddy for my 1 year old, or a Albin jacket and jesper pants for my 5 year old.

  4. Jodi on February 8th, 2010 12:52 pm

    I love the Albin Jacket and Olle pants. The reflective strip is wonderful as those rainy days are very grey and I can feel more confident my child will be seen. The reinforced knees of the Olle pants are terrific too!

  5. Leanne Harris on February 8th, 2010 2:39 pm

    I like the pink with black trim Albin jacket for my daughter who is almost 2. I love the full piece muddy buddy’s as well but she already has one of those. Cheers!

  6. Shelby on February 8th, 2010 2:50 pm

    I was thrilled to hear of a company that wants to make a difference, not only keeping our kids dry, but to help sustain our environment in the process. There is no compromise of style meets function. I love the full muddy buddy, for my little active one. Thanks for using PVC and Phthalate free rainwear – certified by oko tex.
    I am thrilled to have Puddlegear available in Canada, especially in Vancouver, thanks for reducing our footprint!

  7. mandy on February 8th, 2010 2:50 pm

    We love Albin & Olle. They are the perfect wet coast gear… roomy for layering underneath, totally waterproof yet a little breathable. Lovely products.

  8. Wesley on February 8th, 2010 2:55 pm

    Hey, those mitts would sure come in handy. I vote for olle pants and albin jackets please.

  9. Lynsey on February 8th, 2010 3:19 pm

    We love our Albin jacket and Jesper pants…wear them almost every day. I would love to get a Hilde muddy buddy for our littlest one. And those hats with the brims would be perfect for keeping raindrops off our noses.

  10. Leah on February 8th, 2010 9:37 pm

    It’s a tie between the Samuel pants & the waterproof mitts. My kids love the mitts on those cold winter days. The lining is warm yet flexible enough for their fingers to be able to do their play! I’m thinking my boy would love a pair of the Samuel pants, now he’s outgrown the Jespers.
    We heart Puddlegear!

  11. Olivia on February 9th, 2010 7:29 am

    I like them all! It’s a tie between the Albin jacket in Med Blue w/ black bottom or the Red Jacket. The Olle pants with the patches are cute!
    Can’t wait till my lil one can wear these!

  12. Angela on February 9th, 2010 8:13 am

    I’m liking the hats and gloves, ideal for heads and curious hands!

  13. Marjorie on February 9th, 2010 8:29 am

    Everything is nice and perfect for the Vancouver weather. My little ones love splashing in the puddles. I think my favourite item would be the rain hat – although the Olle pants with the Albin jacket are close.

  14. Dana Kaneko on February 9th, 2010 9:18 am

    What a great line. I really like the Willy set and the Anton Jacket and Felix pants.

  15. Teresa on February 9th, 2010 9:40 am

    Just love the Olle pants and versatility of combining a jacket of choice to make up the set that I like. How slick would this be on the playground on a rainy day?!?! Your child(ren) would have the place all to themselves. No fighting for the swings – ha ha!!

  16. Erica Schmidt on February 9th, 2010 9:43 am

    I love the Muddy Buddy! One piece is the best for my squirmy little one. Perfect for Vancouver weather!

  17. Elizabeth on February 9th, 2010 10:19 am

    My son would appreciate the Olle Pants. Since they have a strap under the foot, he’d stay warm and dry for longer. What great products!

  18. Martha Molls on February 9th, 2010 10:19 am

    We’ve just moved and the new house has 1/4 acre of forested wetland as our backyard. I would love the Albin Jacket and Olle pants to keep my 5 year old dry (and easy to spot) between all those trees!

  19. Jennifer Wong on February 9th, 2010 12:32 pm

    Perfect rain wear for Vancouver. Especially the Olle pants! I’m also impressed by how visible the jackets are with the reflective strip. My two boys (3 & 5 years) looked at the website with me and have already decided on what they want.

  20. Jane on February 9th, 2010 12:35 pm

    What great gear! I love the Anton Jacket and Felix pants. My son will love to look like a fire fighter and I like that they are bright and reflective for safety. Perfect for all the outdoor activities!

  21. Jodie on February 9th, 2010 4:41 pm

    Love those mittens!

  22. Inna on February 9th, 2010 6:04 pm

    I really like their muddy buddy items! Perfect for toddlers.

  23. paula on February 9th, 2010 9:28 pm

    The Anton Jacket to match with the Felix Pants are perfect for my little firefighter!

  24. Lisa on February 9th, 2010 10:20 pm

    Hilde Full Piece “Muddy Buddy” for sure. I love that they can still go outside and play on a rainy day and still feel cozy!!

  25. Vivienne on February 9th, 2010 10:30 pm

    I like the Hilde Full Piece – it’s just the one thing to have to wrestle onto my guy, but I like the Olle Pants/Albin jacket combo for more versatility.

  26. Sheryl on February 10th, 2010 6:31 am

    I like the Benny jacket (Red), Jesper Pants(Red) and Waterproof Mitts(Red). So cute and worth it!

  27. Sandra Raines on February 10th, 2010 6:50 am

    The Albin Jacket in pink is nice. Really like the reflective stripe.

  28. Deanna on February 10th, 2010 8:17 am

    The Hilde Full Piece “Muddy Buddy” is very cool – splashing in puddles would be awesome in it but I also love the visibility of the Anton Jacket with the matching Felix Pants – yes, my son likes to be a firefighter too.

  29. Tanya on February 10th, 2010 9:34 am

    I love the albin jackets! So nice to see attractive kids outerwear without silly cartoon characters on them!!!

  30. Jen on February 10th, 2010 9:37 am

    It is so hard to find rain pants for kids!! I think my daughter would prefer the Samuel pants with the Albin jacket. Puddles, here we come.

  31. Tressa on February 10th, 2010 9:43 am

    I love Puddlegear, a great, local company! Thanks for offering this amazing giveaway. My fave product is the Olle Pants – the knee patches crack me up! (And uber practical for my tall 3 yrd old who grows out of the one piece suits way too fast.)

  32. Melody F on February 10th, 2010 9:53 am

    The waterproof mitts are amazing – my son loves to wear them as they keep his hands so warm and dry when he plays in the rain.

  33. Kim on February 10th, 2010 10:21 am

    Beautiful products! I love the Anton jacket with Felix pants. My little boy would love it and the reflective qualities would be great on Vancouver’s gray days.

  34. Kathy on February 10th, 2010 10:41 am

    Great quality rain gear!I love the mitts.

  35. Jocelyn on February 10th, 2010 12:45 pm

    My son would love the Anton Jacket and Felix pants. They look very “emergency services”.

  36. Bessie Burnsed on February 10th, 2010 2:00 pm

    I love the vibrant colors of your Anton Jackets… I love that pink albin jacket with the reflective stripe… perfect for dark rainy weater..

  37. kate on February 10th, 2010 2:22 pm

    Oh those Olle pants are just so cute, and the hats are perfect for all-weather playing!

  38. Jen on February 10th, 2010 2:52 pm

    What a great line of environmentally friendly rain gear. I hope this becomes more widely available at kids stores across Canada. No more pvc. I’d love the muddy buddy for my squirmy little guy.

  39. Alexis on February 10th, 2010 3:04 pm

    Definitely love the Hilde Full Piece Muddy Buddy for my loves-to-splash-in-the-puddles toddler!

  40. Brenda on February 10th, 2010 4:31 pm

    My daughter would like the Hilde ‘muddy buddy’, though we aren’t sure it comes in her size…otherwise, she is keen on the darker pink :)

  41. Robyn on February 10th, 2010 6:03 pm

    I like the Hilde full piece muddy buddy … in pink! Nice to know it comes in small sizes :)

  42. Tina Neale on February 10th, 2010 10:13 pm

    It’s gotta be the waterproof mitts. They’re just what we need.

  43. Lisa Bennett on February 11th, 2010 12:02 am

    Wow! Great stuff! Thanks for bringing this gear to my attention…definately a “got to have” for my active little girl. My favorite item is definately the mitts. Looking forward to getting her into a Benny jacket and Olle pants too!

  44. Jocelyn on February 11th, 2010 9:24 am

    Olle Pants – I love the reinforced knees and suspenders to keep them up. Waterproof mittens are perfect for Vancouver rainy days. good practical designs for boys and girls.

  45. Dawn on February 11th, 2010 9:26 am

    I love the Benny jacket and the Olle pants. They look cute and seem like they would be great for the outdoors. I love that the knees on the Olle pants are reinforced, especially if I were to get a lighter color like pink. I would also get a lot of use out of the waterproof mitts – too often the little one comes in with soaking wet mitts!

  46. Cadi Jordan on February 11th, 2010 10:51 am

    I love the samuel pants! We always get our legs wet and I’ve been scoping out rain pants! These look great!

  47. Tanya on February 11th, 2010 12:23 pm

    I like the mitts and the benny jacket. They would be great on any day…rain/snow or sun!

  48. Bianca on February 11th, 2010 2:59 pm

    I love the Benny jacket and Samuel pants for my little one and for my bigger one the Willy set looks fantastic. These items are a must with our wet Vancouver weather and it’s nice to know they are safe for our little ones to wear.

  49. Christina Hendricks on February 11th, 2010 5:52 pm

    I love the Anton Jacket and the Felix pants–they provide excellent visibility for bike riding in the rain with my 2 1/2 year old. He likes to be out riding even when it’s dark and rainy, and I like that he would be visible in this. I think he would like that it looks like a firefighter’s or coast guard member’s uniform!

  50. Cynthia on February 11th, 2010 11:20 pm

    I love the fitted hat and the chemical free nature. Bring quality and care back to life.

  51. Sheila on February 11th, 2010 11:41 pm

    The Samuel pants look best for my daughter as I only get about 30 seconds notice to get her to the toilet.
    I like the visibility of the Anton jacket.

  52. Charlie on February 12th, 2010 6:21 am

    Waterproof Mitts with a soft fleece lining – GENIUS

  53. Jil on February 12th, 2010 7:21 am

    A Hilde “Muddy Buddy” would be ideal for my active 2.5 yr old as he’s just outgrown his and he loves splashing in mud puddles!

  54. Carrie on February 12th, 2010 9:20 am

    Simple, uncomplicated design; I love the Anton Jacket and the Felix pants with reflective strips…oh and the Willy suit for me!

  55. Dianne on February 12th, 2010 10:54 am

    Love that there are a variety of colour selections. Can’t wait jump into puddles with my little one.

  56. Krissie on February 12th, 2010 10:59 am

    Wow! Thank you for introducing us to this healthy, enviornmentally conscious company! I need to buy a muddy buddy for my son when he goes to daycare and am excited that there are no harmful chemicals in the products!

  57. Tricia on February 12th, 2010 11:14 am

    Great product. I like the Benny jacket paired with the Jesper pants and waterproof mitts.

  58. Julie on February 12th, 2010 1:04 pm

    I really like the Olle pants – knees are always filthy and worn out first! What a great idea!

  59. Kerry Chan on February 12th, 2010 1:41 pm

    Love how it’s free of so many chemicals and is waterproof!

  60. Andrea on February 12th, 2010 2:40 pm

    I love the Hilde muddy buddy… puddle jumping has never been so much fun – and DRY!

  61. CArla Simicich on February 12th, 2010 5:37 pm

    MUDDY BUDDY!!!!

  62. Shara on February 12th, 2010 9:42 pm

    I like the Albin jacket in medium blue with black jacket for my little man!

  63. Janis on February 13th, 2010 10:27 am

    Love the Muddy Buddy and waterproof mitts!

  64. Misti on February 13th, 2010 12:28 pm

    We like the Anton Jacket! Jr. Firefighters are pretty cute!

  65. Laura b on February 13th, 2010 11:55 pm

    I like the pink muddy buddy-ohy daughter could have so much fun in that!

  66. Sheeba on February 14th, 2010 3:53 pm

    Would love the Samuel pants and Albin jacket for my little 2-year old puddlejumper!

  67. Sheeba on February 14th, 2010 3:54 pm

    OOPS! That was total mommy brain…meant to say the BENNY jacket!

  68. Petra on February 14th, 2010 7:05 pm

    I love the Olle pants for my soon to be crawler. I wish I had these when my older one was crawling in the park!
