    I've been looking for ONE piece snowsuits/ski suits for my kids (girls size 6 and boys size 4).

    I wanted them for this year but couldn't find them so I'm searching early for next Winter. DD has a girl in her class that has one and I think it's so handy! A one piece snowsuit would save me loads of time with DS and it would eliminate DD forgetting her snowpants (either at home or school).

    Anyone have any idea where to buy them for a decent price (under $75)?

    I did a few google searches but didn't see any and none of the stores near us carry one piece snowsuits over size 24months.

    Thought I'd see if someone has some insight. Thanks so much!

    I looked on the Sears website, they have some, but crazy expensive. http://m.sears.ca/product/northpeak-...000349522-3103

    We only use one piece snowsuits for the kids up here. One piece is warmer and much faster.

    Mine wear Mountain Equipment Co-Op (when they are clearing out a style before bring a new one they go down to $69) and Helly Hansen. Helly Hansen makes them up to size 12. Helly Hansen ain't cheap. But both them and MEC last multiple kids and have fantastic resale value.

    Check kijiji too.

    Thanks everyone!

    I have been checking kijiji but haven't seen anything so far.

    Good to know MEC makes larger 1 piece snowsuits, I'll look for those.

    I asked the Columbia outlet and they said its hit and miss so to keep calling every few weeks.

    I guess I'll keep plugging away and hopefully they pop up before next winter.

    MEC is clearing out their toaster snowsuits. They must be coming out with a new style next year. There is none left online (only babies) but there might be some in stores.

    I found this one on amazon.com for $55 + free shipping to Canada so I decided to try it out. Got the Navy size 3/4. Hopefully it works!



    If we like it we'll probably order DD one too, but for now it's more important DS has a 1 piece.

    I've had good luck in the past so I'm hoping it's not much. I'll update when I get it.

    I know you already found one but Bonnie Togs/ Carter's had Osh Kosh/ Columbia one pieces up to a 6 marked down to 29.99(I think)earlier this week.

    Is that size 6T or size 6 months?

    I've never seen one pieces at my Bonnie Togs that are larger than 24 months. I'll definitely check it out!

    6T. It was the Carter's store in Waterloo and the Bonnie Togs in Cambridge.

    It arrived!

    No extra charges, CP delivered the snowsuit today. $55 even, no other charges.

    Looks a little big but I'm hoping that means I'll get 2 years out of it. Lol

    lola, how long u figure it takes to get in and out of the snowsuit... i'm interested in getting one for DS - but he's a "bus" kid .. so he can't take too long putting it on or he'll miss the bus.
