Can't enter

By: Kristin Darguzas

But I love the Kenneth Cole brand and there is something about a tiny little being in a hoodie that makes my heart hurt. Looking forward to seeing some of your entries!


 

Kenneth Cole is cool

By: wemustbuildthehouse

Yes, I agree with you. Kenneth Cole is very good.


 

Kenneth Cole

By: mmc67

I love anything Kenneth Cole . I have always associated Kenneth Cole with great quality items and the fact that they are now making a clothing line of this quality for children make me so happy. I know my little man will look handsome in these clothes.


 

everything matches

By: bindrid

I love that a lot of the clothing is sold as adorable 3 piece sets. They look great together & as separates. You don't have to think about matching!!


 

Looks cute!

By: truvy

It looks really cute to me, and I want to see more! Where can we go to see all that they have to offer?


 

I'm a sucker for that sort

By: lildb

I'm a sucker for that sort of specific little-man apparel on my little man. Therefore, I am besotted with the look. (I said I was a sucker.)


 

Well....

By: sarcasticjournalist

While I enjoy looking at cute kids clothes, I think that spending big money (or really, much money at all) on clothes that will #1 most likely get dirty and #2 most likely be grown out of within months or a year to be incredibly wasteful.


 

The website is...

By: Kristin Darguzas

www.kennethcolereaction.com

They only sell kids footwear online, but customers can get info on where the Kids apparel is sold on that website.

I'll see if maybe I can get some more pics (I'd love to see the girls stuff, too)


 

Too Hip For Canada?

By: Amanda Brown

I was skimming the contest rules and noticed that the contest is only open to residents of the US of A.

That smarts.

Speaking on behalf of all the Canucks I know, I think the collection is adorable and hip. My present financial situation might not allow for such brand-name indulgences but I would definitely pass the wish list on to the grandparents and let them do the buying!

Perhaps you'll take pity on this frozen soul staring longingly from above the 49th parallel and make an exception to the contest rules.


 

Simple. Classy. Clean Cut. Modern.

By: simplicity

When I think of a Kenneth Cole product, whether it be clothing or shoes, I think of a classy yet tastefully in style look.

When I think of that look on children, I think adorable. A preppy, stylish yet not trendy, clean cut, simple look is a great way to dress children.

I'm tired of the cutesy, I'm ready for the modern.


 

Cute

By: Samsakara

I love getting nice clothes for my little man. My toddler might not have a opinion on the clothes yet at this age. But kids grow so fast out of there clothes so it would be really neat to have a adorable outfit for him.


 

Kenneth cole makes quality

By: agordon10

Kenneth cole makes quality products. Something I look for since my five year old son is always in motion.


 

Kenneth Cole Rocks

By: LilacButterfly

They have some really cute kids clothes.


 

I Love Kenneth Cole!

By: tripateam

My first thought was "what a little man" It's so cute to see little boys dress up in teen/adult outfits. Nice to see these kinds of outfits available. Not a lot of cute things for "our little men"


 

Love It!

By: emilyinmn

Although I don't have a little man, I have many friends with little men who I am always buying for. Love the new Kenneth Cole kids line!


 

If I had a son...

By: superbrendah

I'd dress him in some smart Kenneth Cole clothes.


 

Great Product for Rowdy Boys!

By: msbabedoll

In my opinion I think the Kenneth Cole Reatction shoes are well worth the money spent. My son is So "busy" that it's hard to keep from tearing up a good pair of shoes. I bought him a pair of these and they were put to the ultimate test and passed with flying colors.

My suggestion to those who don't want to spend alot of money on growing children is to look for the sales. :-)

Kenneth Cole is a great brand, I stand by them!


 

great outfit

By: pincus

My grandson would look so cute wearing this


 

Well considering Kenneth

By: Motherhooduncensored

Well considering Kenneth Cole shoes got me into this glorious mess I call my son, then it's only fitting that they dress him.

kenneth cole reaction outfit

By: adina39

My son would look so special and would appreciate it so much as he does not that many clothes and they are all hand-me-downs. This outfit would boost his self confidence and make him personally feel very special.


 

As a Kenneth Cole Devotee...

By: Izzy76

As a Kenneth Cole devotee since my college years (I'm fanatical about KC purses) I think my son should be able to enjoy some Kenneth Cole, too. And to prove this campaign is working, I didn't even know KC made kids clothes until now.

So what do I think about KC kid's clothes? Verrrry cool :)

OK, Kristen...

By: Kristin Darguzas

Kenneth Cole had something to do with the conception of your baby boy? Now this I gotta hear.


 

Catch em young

By: fidget

I must admit i have a weakness when it comes to Kenneth Cole. I like the new kids look. It's everything i expect from KC - sleek, clean, and classic, mingled with just enough playfulness and spunk to make it kid appropriate and appealing. What does my son think? he's drooling with appreciation. Hoodies are a big hit with him, they are great for impromptu games of Peek-a-boo. .

Kenneth Cole Reaction

By: kdkdkd

Do you know how hard it is to find great clothes for my baby boy and toddler boy? My husband is adamant that they never wear 'cutesy' clothes, they have to look all boy. Kenneth Cole Reaction is a wonderful line. The clothes are classic and cool and 100% All American Boy.


 

agordon10 is right...

By: Lisa Stone

I can't enter either, but I can add that for me, quality + style = Mom's favorite math. Ever.

I love that the knees don't wear out on Day Three.

I love that my 'tween looks at this and says, "that's cool" and won't put up a fight.

I love that the cut cleans them up enough that they can wear something this comfy on back-to-school night.

Thanks Kenneth Cole!

Finally!

By: augustlily

I've always loved Kenneth Cole accessories and shoes for men and women.

As the mom of 2 young boys I am excited to hear that there will be a line of Kenneth Cole boys clothing that is stylish without being "trendy". That means these clothes can be handed down from one boy to the other and still be current when my youngest wears them!

Hallelujah!


 

Kenneth Cole does kid clothes??

By: 22tootsie

What do I think? I think my mohawked dude, age 6, would be beyond stylish in this cool to the toes outfit!


 

Nicey-nice!!

By: novaceleste

Wow!! I didn't know Kenneth Cole had childern's clothes. Kenneth Cole has always had very classy, timeless clothes. The childern's clothes line has proven to be a perfect addition to the Kenneth Cole name. My son and daughter were excited to see all the clothing choices on the K.C. website. All I heard was "Oooo, look at that." and "Oh, mom, I want that." I would say that my kids approving of the clothes is an understatement. They have requested me to hurry with this comment, so they can get back to shopping.


 

Kenneth Cole

By: vergallito1

I did not know that Kenneth Cole made childrens clothing. I think that is GREAT!!! Kenneth Cole is a brand name that I can trust in and by doing this it just got better. Thank you Kenneth Cole !


 

Kenneth Cole

By: superdumb

I love Kenneth Cole stuff for women (especially the shoes!) but haven't tried their kids' line yet. Now that I have a five week old son, I sense the time is near! I think their little boys' clothing is absolutely adorable, like a tiny version of daddy's clothes. Urban hipster clothes for kiddos! I am particularly fond of the stripey button-down shirts. So, so cute…

Please enter me to win a set for Jasper.

Thanks!

Kenneth Cole

By: Kian Yamaguchi

What do you think of it? I love the whole Kenneth Cole Reaction line and I really would love to be able to dress my kids in it. Unfortunately I can't afford to, but I still like it!

What does your kid think of it? Well the kids that would probably wear the clothes don't care that much as they are boys and they just like to be comfortable. Being in style or stylish is more important to me. Unless they aren't telling me something.

What does it mean to you? It means that I could have a cute, well made, designer outfit for my child, and he'd look awesome in it. I'm shallow alright?


 

Kenneth Cole for boys brings an authentic voice to children's clothing-- which is often trivialized with trite colors and cartoon images of "boy things." It's incredibly valuable to have quality options that respect children by giving them the tools they need to go through their days ready to express themselves instead of having their pre-packaged message selected with the disrespect that too many companies show to children. The vast majority of consumer choices for boys are trite--either parodies of sailor suits, or silk-screened clothing that is essentially a fabric coloring book with snaps and buckles. A child who is dressed in the type of casual, cool clothing that is pictured in the Kenneth Cole piece can self-define his unique experience of developing into a boy and into a man--and as the mother of two boys, I know that is rare, good thing.


 

School Clothing

By: T Duggan

I teach third grade in a Pennsylvania public school. Although Kenneth Cole clothing may have a classic look, it is quite expensive for main stream America. I strongly feel that proper clothing can have a positive effect on a child's persona as they grow and become part of society. I myself would like to see students in more appropriate clothing but I know that cannot happen without much lobbying and many PTO and board meetings. Perhaps Kenneth Cole can branch out and provide levels of their quality clothing much like Carter does with brands like Just One Year and such. I myself like to dress my 20 month old son in cothing by companies such as Gymboree, Carters, OshKosh, Ralph Lauren..... however I always buy when the sale price is right for me.

What does my kid think of it? He doesn't at his age. The market appeals more to the parents. To make a broad and general statement... although personality always preceeds appearance, a better dressed individual usually gets noticed. I know children need play clothes but its a good idea to instill a sense of pride in how we dress our children for certain occasions.

Just my own thoughts.


 

Elizabeth Dehart

By: lizdehart

What do I think? I love it. My son dresses casual and I'd like a more dressy outfit for him.
My sons thoughts? He'd probably hate it as he's barefoot all of the time and "tries" to be naked all of the time.
What does it mean to me? It would force my husband to get a family picture (we haven't had one since my son was born and he's 19 months)


 

Kenneth Cole

By: pz5wjj

I have two boys and they are real boys -- into everything and very hard on their clothes.

They like clothes that look nice, but can take the pre-school and Elementary playgrounds and the tough Georgia clay!

I really like the Kenneth Cole Collection because it's interesting. It's so hard to find nice clothes for boys that don't have logos and cartoon characters on them. The Kenneth Cole Collection has nice, interesting clothes for boys that are durable and comfortable for boys to play in.

Thanks!


 

Kenneth Cole Cross Off A To-Do Item

By: Bitsy Parker

My son has to wear a dress outfit on Monday and finding nice shoes that weren't "Italian Nice Priced" was proving to be a difficult task until I found a pair of Kenneth Cole's that fit the bill. My son was happy, the school was happy and I was happy that I got to cross off a "to-do" item from my list.


 

Kenneth Cole

By: holaisabel

What do I think of the Kenneth Cole line of clothes for little guys?

I love it. My son has two KC outfits (bought for a great price, on sale at Macy's). I have been very happy with the jeans, the zipper jacket, and especially with the little blazer. I tell you what, as soon as I put the little brown blazer on my guy (whether over a button down shirt of a tee), he becomes a mini rockstar. I seriously get stopped on the street by strangers to find out where I got such a great blazer for him. It's cut perfectly for him and he's been able to wear the 12 month size (he now 17 months) since he was 9 months. I truly feel like I got my money worth with the KC items.

I am constantly on the look out for clothing items for my son that don't have teddy bears and trucks on them. You know, clothes that look like something a normal person would wear, only smaller. I've been very pleased with the Kenneth Cole clothes he has. And like I said earlier, the sale price made it even more worth while.

Keep up the good work.


 

cute, but grown up

By: bigmammy

I love the ad, and so I went to the website.
I am a mother of 4 kids aged 3 months to 10. I thought the shoes were great for the older kids, but for toddlers they looked to dressy and grown up. I would find it hard to pay a lot of money for shoes that may only be used once or twice for that age group. The older kids shoes would be worth the money. They would get more wear out of them and they are so stylish. Kenneth Cole is also one of my top brands and I know they make high quality products. I also think the ad appeals to the tween group, and would especially be fuin clothes and shoes for that age group.
Thanks


 

Kenneth Cole

By: purmerend

I always liked the Keneth Cole Reaction Line. When my oldest son was younger, I loved it because it was fashionable enough for a trendy mom like me who liked to see her boy look good, and it was very durable and well made. Yet Jake really couldn't care less what he looked like, as long as it was comfortable for him to be in. This line satisfied both of us. Now that he is 12 years old and actually wants to pick out his own clothing and cares what he looks like (mama taught him right and set a good foundation!) Funny that alot of items that he will choose these days are from the kenneth cole line! and Mind you I have to shop for him in the Men's section now! (yes size 9 shoes and 30 wais pants!) He just picked out a new pair of kenneth cole reaction black dress shoes for himself all by himself. Who knows, maybe my younger son will follow the path of his older brother and sport the Kenneth cole line through the various stages of his development.


 

Tight budgets require sturdy clothes

By: whatchoomean

and that is what Kenneth Cole clothing and shoes provide. You may pay a little more but it will hold up to childhood and still look good. In our appearance conscious society of today, Kenneth Cole provides quality while not succumbing to the more derogatory fashion trends of today. The clothes feel good on the child and look good as well. If children like how they look, they feel good about themselves. It's human nature. We all want to stand tall on the inside.


 

Loving It!

By: AdriGirl

I think Kenneth Cole Reaction gives my child that look, that makes moms wishes they had second guess their childs outfit. You really need to make the clothes available everywhere.


 

Kenneth Cole

By: Montserrat

Living on a farm in rural Nevada, having to do most of our clothes shopping online, I must admit I'd never even heard of Kenneth Cole. Then a month ago I packed up my seven children for a week long visit to my parents' house. Because we were now 'in the city' I had some major clothes shopping on my to-do list. While shopping for my clothes I spotted a skirt hanging on the rack that I had to try. I put it on and instantly fell in love with it! It made me feel pretty and special and good. I now know what wearing a well made article of clothing can do for a person. And, yes, it was a Kenneth Cole Reaction.

I did suffer somewhat from sticker shock though. I would love to be able to clothe all of my children in Kenneth Cole Reaction Wear but, wowsers, I'd be broke! So for now mama (that's me) is the only one wearing this brand. I do want my six daughters to feel this special so they will be receiving a special outfit on their birthdays. And my baby, my son, he will be too.


 

Kenneth Cole Reaction

By: ladirig

Simply put, the Kenneth Cole Reaction line is the epitome of style. Just because little boys play hard and may be rowdy and rambunctious does not mean that they can't do so while looking sophisticated. As a woman who enjoys fashion I like to dress my son in fashionable yet functional clothing. Kenneth Cole embodies that: form, function and fashion. I absolutely love that more and more adult designers are bringing their magnificent designs to the toddler and preschooler set.

My REACTION to Kenneth Cole

By: sn0wcra5h

Kenneth Cole makes children's clothing that is completely different from the rest of the children's clothing lines; not only is the clothing well made, the outfits are fun and trendy!


 

Kenneth Cole

By: gjgille

I'm not familiar with Kenneth Cole children's collections, but I heard a lot about the clothes as being of a great durable quality and applealing style.


 

Mini macho man

By: macymami

Too cute, but too pricey. Love the style though.


 

Little men

By: moniferious

I think outfits like these that make children look like little men and women are absolutely adorable. Why should kids walk around in silly little outfits. The only problem like some people have stated, is that they need to make the outfits more affordable for parents. Being one of those people who can't afford these outfits, I would love to win it!

The Ladies Man

By: Countrygirl_0103

My 4 Year old son Collin is a ladies man. "Already?" you ask? "Yup" I reply. I know this for several reasons. Not the least of them being his REACTION to the latest run of nutra-system commercials. As my innocent blond haired, blue eyed angel points his tiny finger at my T.V., mesmerized by a woman in a red bikini (claiming to be a 40 yr old grandmother), and croons...." OOOOOOH LOOK AT THE NAKED BABY!". Yes indeed, Collin is a ladies man. And as any accomplished ladies man knows.... women LOVE Kenneth Cole. They want their man to dress in Kenneth Cole, and to smell of Kenneth Cole. So let me take this opportunity to thank you for providing a fashion line for all the wee little "ladies men-in-training". I'm sure Collin will appreciate going to pre-school looking like the dapper-dan he knows he is. Properly dressed to scout around for some future "naked babies". Let's all just pray that his 61 yr old teached never comes to school in her bathing suit.:)


 

Living in the Real World

By: hickcrazy1

Hoodies are the current fashion statement and Kenneth Cole is a designer regularly produces the kind of attractive, well-made garment a kid wants to wear and won't take off.
Our guy has only one fashion requirement and that is that his clothes match his Spiderman t-shirts.He says his Reaction gear is "way coooooolll!! "
I appreciate fine quality and when I spot a Reaction logo, I always check the item out, just to see what's new and fresh. Buying Kenneth Cole equals shopping with confidence.
