Kids' Shell jackets

The Shell Jacket and Its Place in Your Kids' Wardrobe

Children often need different types of outerwear. At times, they are outside for large parts of the day, and the weather in Sweden can change in just a few minutes, even in spring. By purchasing a shell jacket, you have ensured that your child is appropriately dressed for almost all types of weather throughout the year. We recommend a shell jacket for both children and juniors as it has many good and multifunctional features.

A proper shell jacket is windproof and waterproof, but most importantly - it is breathable, making it easy to adopt the layering principle. This way, your child does not need to change jackets every time the weather changes, but can simply remove or add a sweater under the jacket. A breathable material is a must for children playing outside, as they can sometimes get very warm from running around, and then cool down the next minute by, for example, sitting down in the sandbox. These temperature changes can be uncomfortable for your child if they are wearing outerwear that feels confining.

At Outnorth, we have gathered all the shell jackets for children on one page so you can easily find them. In our large selection, you will find shell jackets from well-known brands such as Haglöfs, Isbjörn of Sweden, and Bergans. You can also sort by size, price, or color. We also have other types of jackets for children, such as winter jackets or fleece sweaters.

Why Does My Kid Need a Shell Jacket?

You probably remember how, as a child, you could be so engrossed in an outdoor game that you hardly noticed when it started to rain or the wind really picked up. It's the same with children today and one of the most disappointing things for them is when they have to interrupt a game or outdoor activity because they are cold or because their outer garments have become wet. Splashing around in puddles, climbing trees, running around with friends, building sandcastles from wet sand - these are all parts of childhood, and your child should be able to do all these things while still feeling warm and dry.

A shell jacket withstands water, wind, and is very durable while the material is flexible and easily follows your child's movements. It's not necessary for the weather to be bad for the shell jacket to meet a need: it also works in the spring with a thin layer of clothing underneath, as the material breathes. Therefore, buy a shell jacket for your child, as it works year-round.

Something that might be good to remember is to only wash the shell jacket when absolutely necessary, as the functions of the jacket can deteriorate with repeated washing. Often, it is also enough to just wipe off dirt with a damp cloth, or you can buy liquid detergent specifically for functional clothes. If you use the right products, you extend the lifespan of the shell jacket, so your child can enjoy it for a long time.

There's no bad weather, only inadequate clothes - buy a high-quality shell jacket

You've probably heard this saying many times in your life. In Sweden, we're used to the weather changing quickly, but we also love to be out in nature and the fresh air. Therefore, it is important that our jackets and shoes keep us dry and warm and allow us to get out regardless of the weather. This is especially true for children who can spend several hours outside every day with other kids at preschool or school.

In our range, you'll find shell jackets in various price ranges and sizes, for both children and juniors. You can also choose from many different colors and brands. Purchase a shell jacket as a part of your child’s wardrobe, as it can be used year-round while withstanding all the fun games and activities outdoors.
