Description of Columbia Steens Mountain Fleece Jacket - Infant Boys':
The cozy Columbia Infant Boys' Steens Mountain Fleece Jacket will keep your infant boy warm in cool weather. Columbia made this fuzzy jacket from its Maximum Thermal Retention fleece, which is quick-drying and doesn't pill. It stretches four ways, so your little one can wiggle all he pleases. The Steens Mountain Fleece sheds water, keeping him dry if it starts sprinkling out.
Bottom Line: Outfit your infant in the soft Columbia Steens Mountain Jacket to keep him warm when a t-shirt just isn’t enough.
Ditto the reviewers who advised going up a size. We got the 12-month size for our 6mo son, and it fits well over sweaters and isn't too short. (I actually ordered the 6-month size to compare and opted against it since it would have been too tight over bulky clothes.)
This is a great first fleece for your little one, that is soft, cozy, and easy to care for (washer machine and dryer friendly). One thing, the body is SHORT on this jacket. My son wears 6-12 month right now and we got him an 18 month so he could wear it longer, but it fits him now. The sleeves are longer, but the body of the jacket runs shorter. If you want a jacket that is a bit more proportional I would recommend going up to the toddler sizes.
I bought this jacket on sale, its great b/c its cozy enough for baby but not too bulky so its easy to get him into the car seat. Its also super easy to wash.
