Our Puddlesuits Featured in Women's Health
We’re absolutely delighted to see two of our much-loved puddlesuits featured in Women’s Health’s round-up of the best puddlesuits for kids! 🌧️
Because, as every parent knows, a good puddlesuit can make all the difference between “Come on, let’s go outside!” and “But it’s RAINING!”
At Muddy Puddles, we believe that a little bit of rain should never stand in the way of a big adventure. From jumping in enormous puddles to crawling through muddy parks, building snowmen and exploring the garden, our puddlesuits are designed to help little ones get outside, whatever the weather throws their way.
Women’s Health put both our EcoLight Puddlesuit and EcoSplash Fleece Lined Puddlesuit through their paces, highlighting their waterproof fabrics, clever details and all-weather practicality.
So, what did they have to say?
EcoLight Puddlesuit
Our EcoLight Puddlesuit is made for lighter, warmer-weather adventures when you need protection from rain and wind without wrapping little ones up in something heavy.
Women’s Health described it as a “funky weather-inspired puddle suit” that's perfect for splashing and playing in the park throughout the seasons. We couldn’t agree more!
With 10,000mm waterproofing and 3,000g/m² breathability, EcoLight is designed to keep little explorers dry from the outside while helping them stay comfortable as they race, crawl and climb. And because British weather rarely likes to stick to one forecast, the fabric also helps protect against windchill. So whether it’s a drizzly spring morning, a blustery summer afternoon or one of those classic days when you experience four seasons before lunchtime, little adventurers are ready to get stuck in. It’s wonderfully lightweight, too, with a soft jersey lining, elasticated cuffs and a cosy hood to help keep the elements out. And then there’s the extra-long zip. A small detail that makes a very big difference when you’re trying to get a wriggly, soaking-wet toddler out of their puddlesuit without bringing half the park home with you!
Designed for ages 6 months to 2 years, EcoLight is made with crawling, sliding, splashing and exploring in mind. In other words, exactly the sorts of things little ones like to do when you tell them it’s time to go home.
Women’s Health says: “Best for: Wet and windy weather.”
EcoSplash Fleece Lined Puddlesuit
When the temperature drops, it’s time to reach for our EcoSplash Fleece Lined Puddlesuit.
This is our cosy, all-weather puddlesuit for those days when rain, wind, cold and mud are all very much on the agenda. It combines waterproof protection with a warm fleece lining, making it a brilliant choice for everything from winter walks and muddy park trips to snowy adventures.
Women’s Health called it “one of the coolest looking rainwear options” in their round-up — which is especially useful when your little one has very strong opinions about what they will and absolutely will not wear!
Underneath the fun colours and practical design, there are plenty of clever features to help keep little explorers protected. Taped seams provide extra waterproofing, helping stop rain from sneaking through the stitching, while elasticated cuffs help keep sleeves snug and the elements out. Adjustable stirrups can be worn over wellies to help keep the suit securely in place, even when little legs are charging through particularly impressive puddles. And, of course, we couldn’t leave out that extra-long waterproof zip. It makes getting dressed easier and, perhaps even more importantly, makes getting undressed after a very wet adventure considerably less of a wrestling match. There’s another reason to love EcoSplash: it’s made using recycled plastic bottles, giving those bottles another lease of life while creating hard-working outdoor kit for little adventurers.
Available from 0–7 years, it’s designed to see children through plenty of muddy missions, rainy walks and chilly outdoor adventures.

Ready for the next adventure?
Whether it’s a springtime shower, a blustery day at the park or a full-on winter mudfest, the right puddlesuit means there’s no need to wait for the sun to come out before heading outdoors. Our EcoLight Puddlesuit is lightweight and breathable for warmer, wetter and windier days, while our EcoSplash Fleece Lined Puddlesuit brings an extra layer of cosy warmth when temperatures tumble. Because puddles aren’t going to jump in themselves, are they?
A huge thank you to Women’s Health for including our puddlesuits in their round-up of the best puddlesuits for kids. We’re so pleased to see our mission of helping little ones get outside, whatever the weather, recognised — and we hope it inspires plenty more muddy adventures along the way!
Now, where did we put those wellies?
