The Paddington Bear for babyGap collection is an adorable one that mixes modern style with iconic elements of the bear’s wardrobe. Paddington Bear’s most iconic look includes a hat, a blue button-up duffle coat and of course, a pair of rain boots, all of which have been reinterpreted for kids.
The collection has been adapted for young boys and girls under the age of two, including stylish basics like shoes, color-blocked pullovers, knitted hats with bear ears, plus plenty of garments with drawings of Paddington and his favorite snack, marmalade jam on top of toast.
The super cute Paddington Bear x babyGap collection launched in stores and online just a few days ago on January 23rd.
