I bought this jacket in the hopes that it would fit in my 2 year old son's car seat, and it does. It is very thin and I feel I am able to get his car seat straps tight over it, which I am not able to do even when he is wearing a thick fleece. Couldn't be happier with that. I layer on a canvas shell type jacket for colder temperatures, but this was worth it alone for something to wear to and from his car seat.
He is a 2T, but I bought it in a 3T in hopes that it will also fit him next year. The sleeves are long, but roll easily. Also happy that Patagonia will do repairs, since I can see it ripping or tearing easily.
