Kids' jackets for little explorers and active youngsters

Kids love to have fun – so get them outdoors! Whether it's a short walk in the woods or an adventurous hike in the mountains, a suitable kid's jacket is a must. When kids and teens are out and about in wind and weather, it’s important for them to have a coat that’ll protect them against the wet and cold. Kids’ jackets need to be particularly durable as they have to withstand a lot of wear and tear. Eco-friendly kids’ coats from VAUDE also protect our planet.

From summer to winter: kids’ jackets for every season

In winter, kids’ warm coats are absolutely essential for going outdoors. For younger children at nursery school or day care, a warm, lined coat is particularly necessary to protect them against the rain or snow. Warm kids’ winter coats are particularly important for children at nursery schools that are based outside, where they spend the whole day playing outdoors. The materials of kids' coats should be extremely hard-wearing, to make sure they stay warm and waterproof and so they can endure the rough and tumble of children's playtime.

Older children also benefit from warm winter jackets. Stylish kids’ winter parkas for the way to school in the snow and cold are just as popular as kids’ rain jackets for everyday life. In summer, a light rain jacket for boys or girls protects against drizzle or heavy showers. Kids' 3-in-1 jackets are particularly suitable in the cold season. Children's 3-in-1 jackets combine a wind- and water-repellent outer jacket with a warm inner jacket to keep them cosy and dry in icy winter temperatures.

Kids’ between-seasons coats

In autumn and spring, when the weather is milder but a warming layer is still needed, children are best kitted out with a between-season jacket. Kids' between-seasons jackets can be put on quickly over a T-shirt and help active children maintain a comfortable body temperature. Light between-seasons jackets, such as children’s fleece jackets, hybrid jackets or softshell jackets keep little explorers warm and dry when they’re running around in the forest, kite flying or off on excursions.

Kids' jackets for adventurers big and small

Adventurous kids don't just need a durable children's coat for everyday use. Kids and teens also want to protect themselves against the weather when hiking, cycling and skiing. Kids’ softshell jackets and fleece jackets are popular companions for hiking, and kids’ rain jackets also fit easily into a backpack. Little alpinists are well equipped for skiing, snowboarding or tobogganing with a kids’ 3-in-1 jackets. Kids' ski jackets are extra thickly lined and have a practical snow guard.

Just as for grown-ups, freedom of movement, good ventilation and hard-wearing, water-repellent materials are important in a children's coat too. VAUDE children's coats also feature reflective trims and therefore offer good visibility, as do their bright colours. Carefully thought-out details ensure that children can put the coat on themselves. Any treasures and findings can be stored safely in zipped pockets.
