Rainbow Designs Official Classic Paddington with Boots Soft Toy & PA1484 Classic Paddington Bean Toy Bear Plush, Red

Alright, let’s get into the nitty-gritty because this bear isn’t just about charm—Paddington is as well-crafted as he is adorable. Rainbow Designs has clearly poured some love into the materials and design, and it shows in every stitch and shiny toggle.Let’s talk quality. The polyester plush material is luxuriously soft—like hugging a cloud that’s been dipped in a bit of nostalgia. It’s durable too, which is key, because let’s face it: Paddington is going to get dragged to tea parties, picnics, puddles, and who knows where else. The stitching is tidy and strong, so he’ll stand up to the adventures of even the most enthusiastic little explorers (or overzealous adults—I’m not judging). His padding strikes the perfect balance between squishy and supportive, making him an ideal cuddle buddy for children or a comfy desk companion for those nostalgic workday blues.Now, the details—this is where Paddington truly shines. His duffle coat isn’t just for show; it’s beautifully made with real toggles, not just decorative ones, which gives it a high-quality feel. The coat fabric feels sturdy, almost like a miniature version of what Paddington himself might wear on a crisp London day. His red hat has just the right amount of "battered" to reflect his storybook charm, and those shiny red wellies? Absolute scene-stealers. They’re polished, durable, and add a delightful tactile element that kids (and probably a few grown-ups) will love.Even small touches like the embroidered "P.B." on his coat and the suedette bear. Thank you." are crafted with care. They’re not just slapped on—they add to the authenticity and make this Paddington feel like the real deal, straight out of Darkest Peru.**So here’s the verdict:** This isn’t just a plush toy; it’s a keepsake. The soft, high-quality materials make him snuggle-worthy, while the attention to detail ensures he’s a standout addition to any collection or toy shelf. Paddington is built to last, whether he’s becoming a lifetime companion for your little one or a cherished collectible for a big kid at heart (again, no judgment).Marmalade sandwiches may not be included, but rest assured, this bear’s charm and craftsmanship make up for it. Paddington is a true classic, and he’s here to stay. Well worth the money, for you or your little ones 🐻✨

A classic revisited in modern times, Paddington Bear remains more than popular with people. This visage of him retains his classic stylings, featuring soft fur and plastic boots for him to stand upright. The finer details on the coat and hat are a welcome addition, while being made from quality feeling materials. A great gift without taking up too much space.

The plush toy is a fantastic find. I got it for my 1-year-old nephew, and he absolutely loved it. The bear looks great and the 25cm size is perfect for little hands. The soft, well-made wellies are a nice touch and add to the overall charm of the toy.For the price, it’s an excellent value. The plush is solidly made and soft, making it a hit for both playtime and cuddles. Overall, it’s a 5-star purchase—definitely worth it for anyone looking for a quality, adorable gift.

Lovely little Paddington.. bought one as a gift, the recipient was delighted..good quality at a decent price.

Lovely and happy with the product

Parents loved this wee bear for their son. Granny wants one for Australia

What a gorgeous teddy bear.Such high quality. The toggles are real on his coat, his little boots can be taken on and off and his face is just oerfect.There are many to choose from but ignore them as he is perfect !

I was rather surprised & impressed with this Paddington. Often soft toys come with disproportional faces (uneven eyes, etc) but this was well built and looked very cute. It has gone to Italy now as a present- a very welcome one!
