Children's School Coats

Every coat in this collection is made in England and cut to outlast the school year: the cloakroom peg, the playground and the school run. Duffle coats have been Britain's school coat for generations for a simple reason: wooden toggles are easier for small, cold or gloved hands than any zip, and when one is lost it can be replaced rather than the whole coat.

Most uniform policies ask for a plain, dark coat. You will find navy, black, charcoal and bottle green across the range, from the wool Original Duffle Coat in ages 2 to 16 to showerproof gabardine and ripstop styles for wetter school runs. Cut unisex, so the same coat works for a younger brother or sister afterwards.

If your child wears a blazer, choose the size that fits over it, not over a jumper. Between sizes, size up: sleeves are the first thing a growth spurt claims.

Boys' School Coats

Every Gloverall children's coat is cut the same for boys and girls, so a boys' school coat is a matter of colour: the Original Duffle Coat in Navy, Black or Charcoal runs from age 2 to 16, and the Herringbone Wool Duffle in Charcoal or Navy adds texture without breaking a uniform code. Buy the size that closes over the blazer, and go up one size if in doubt.

Girls' School Coats

The same coats serve as girls' school coats in Navy, Bottle Green and Charcoal, with the Gabardine Showerproof Duffle the pick for wet school runs. Because the cut is unisex, a well-kept coat passes between siblings without looking borrowed, and the dark colours hide playground wear far better than the high street's brighter options.

Why a Duffle Coat for School?

The duffle coat has been Britain's school coat for generations. Toggles fasten with cold or gloved hands where zips jam and break, every coat here is made in England, and when a toggle goes missing a replacement toggle pack fixes the coat for £10 rather than replacing it.
