Kidorable Rain Gear For Kids! Review and Giveaway

kidorable logo
Kidorable is a children's apparel company that truly has the most adorable, entertaining rain gear for kids, including rain coats, umbrellas, rain boots, and hats. The company was created in 1997 by Liping and Jonathan Domsky because they believed "the world needs... children's apparel and accessories that are both functional and fun." They were right. They started with lions and bears in their designs, discovered quick success that allowed them to continue to grow, and each year since a new style and/or product line has debuted.

Children love Kidorable rain gear. The products are vividly colorful, fun, and practical all at the same time, so parents love them too. I was very excited to do this review, because as a child, I never got to wear creative, unique, super-cool rain jackets and umbrellas, and was enthralled when I saw other children wearing items like these (not to mention rather envious). I plan to have fun dressing my own children in these adorable products. Imagine how cute these would look on your little princess!

Or how about these for your little hero or adventurer?

fireman rain jacket
We had the opportunity to review the fireman rain coat and umbrella. We love the quality of the products, and the matching fireman hanger is a great touch. Our little man will probably feel very proud to have this hanging in his closet, his own fireman outfit (we just need to get him the matching rain boots). Little children love costume-like, fun things, and for parents, having your child well-protected against the elements, while making him happy, is a great thing.

In addition to all this great rain gear, they offer other terrific items, like knitted hats, scarves and gloves, backpacks, matching bookends, hangers, towels, sun hats, and tees.

  63. My little girl is very picky about rain gear - she doesn't want anything that looks to "baby" or "boyish." When she saw the Houndstooth Rain Coat she started begging for it. I am so excited to have found a jacket she likes - which is quite important, since we live in Seattle : )
