As far as outdoor clothing goes, your boy will need a great coat for winter. The value of the winter coat cannot be overstated. The best coats are those with a zip-in liner so you can add or take away layers. The coat should be at least water repellent, and should be stylish so he will want to wear it as well. A sturdy, heavy-duty coat is the best way to protect your boy against the elements, while also making sure he is dressed stylishly too.
Humans, especially children, lose most of their heat through their head so protecting his head and ears is key to making sure your boy stays warm through the winter season. Most designer boys' clothing provides fun hats, earmuffs, and scarves to make sure you have plenty of options for any boy's style. Let him choose what kind he wants and he is more likely to wear what you want him to. Most hats will cover his ears, but earmuffs are a great extra layer of protection. They also help prevent his hat from blowing away when those winter gusts of wind come at him.
Gloves are key to protecting your little one's fingers. Mittens will keep him warmer, but are more likely to get wet if your boy likes to play in the snow. Gloves nowadays are easy to clean and dry, and are a great investment for outdoor clothing for winter.
You may also want to invest in some good snow pants or overalls (also called bibs). If you have an active boy who runs around and gets his pants wet, these waterproof pants can be a lifesaver. A good pair is somewhat pricey, but well worth it for keeping your boy warm and dry through the season.
One of the most important things for keeping your boy dry and healthy all season, are shoes. A good pair of boots, matched with thick wooly socks, is absolutely necessary to keeping little toes warm and free from worries like frostbite. Thick boots, or waterproof boots, also are usually key to keeping young children (and older!) from slipping and falling on the winter ice. Take advantage of good designer boy's clothes vendors to find some great boots he will use all winter.
