Baby winter clothes

I wouldn't worry too much about shoes. If you need boots, they'll be easy to find in Canada. Just make a stop at Wal Mart on your way to Whistler.
 
Kayla : thanks for the tip, I didn't think about the local dept stores, what a good idea!

Erin : thanks for the tip, that is very consoling to know, we have 4 full days in Vancouver before heading up to Whistler so if I can't find anything here it's nice to know I have somewhere to fall back on!

Jo : Yes, Whistler is a ski holiday primarily for my husband! I am bringing up my ski gear but given my son at 2 years old is too young for ski school I don't think I'II be spending much time on the slopes. I am nervous about the long haul flight there (we haven't had good experiences with him sleeping on the plane for long haul flights) but he is older now and we plan on exercising him well in the airport terminal before we board! Wasn't that NExt jacket such a good buy?!?!!!!
 
Sumei,

You still on the lookout for winter stuff? Try SOGO, they have a lot on sale. Went there the other day and managed to buy a down jacket for my daughter at Chickeeduck. Unfortunately I was not able to fnd a warm pullover on her size. Check out the sport section too (one or two floors down the kids section) for more winter jacket selection.

I also went to the outlets in Causeway Bay but didn't find any there.
 
hi Jo!

I eventually bought a down jacket from Kingkow for $320 (1/2 off), funny thing is that it looks very similar to our $20 Next jacket from Stanley, my helper thought I was mad! Glad to hear you've found your little one's jacket. I bought a fitted zip up fleece top (they have them in basic colours) for my son from the Outdoor Shop in TST (opposite Harbour City, same side as Hard Rock Cafe, in the building as Citysuper food court - it's in the basement) which sells a great range of adult and kids ski stuff, also picked up nice warm extra small ski mittens there. Hopefully with thermal tees, he'll be ok, he still won't wear a beanie though! For shoes, I succumbed and picked up Timberland boots for him. I am just not a good last minute shopper and didn't want to panic buying in Vancouver when we arrive!

I didn't find anything very suitable in the alleys of Causeway Bay either....
