Our selection of children's ski suits includes suits from Peak Mountain, in child and girl models, Reima Stavanger, Kilpi Pontino, Killtec, Hummel Mini, and Protest, warm, waterproof and practical, for first steps on snow as well as skiing lessons.
Warm and dry all day long.
The one-piece suit is the ideal outfit for young children in the snow: it leaves no gaps at the waist where snow could get in when they fall, which is common at this age. It retains heat better, is easy to put on, and avoids having to adjust trousers and jackets. Models with a double zip make getting dressed and going to the toilet easier.
Children's ski clothing also comes in:
All the clothing is listed on the children's page.
Reima, a Finnish brand founded in 1944, specialising in outdoor clothing for children, creates sturdy, waterproof and breathable suits designed for Scandinavian winters. Kilpi, a Czech brand, and Killtec, a German brand, offer technical and colourful designs. The many Peak Mountain suits for kids and girls, and the Hummel Mini complete the range.
Choose the size with a bit of room for a warm layer underneath and freedom of movement, but not too much so the suit doesn't slip. The reinforcements at the knees and buttocks withstand sliding, the inner gaiters keep the snow out of the boots, and the reflective strips make the child visible. Wash the suit with technical detergent and dry it flat.
Good deals can also be found in good plans, promotions, clearance, sales, and Black Friday. The new arrivals showcase the latest collections, and items shipped in 24h are prepared and sent within 24 hours. The key sales events of the year follow a steady order: Black Friday at the end of autumn, the end-of-year festivities, the winter sales, the French Days in spring, then the summer sales and back-to-school season.
Choose the size that fits their height, possibly one size up so that it lasts for two winters, as long as the sleeves and legs don’t exceed too much. Some models allow for a growth reserve.
Close all zips and Velcro, then wash at thirty degrees on a delicate cycle, using liquid detergent without softener. It dries flat or hung up, and gentle drying reactivates the water-repellent treatment.
The one-piece suit is suitable for younger children: nothing lets snow in at the waist when they fall. When the child skis longer and goes to the toilet alone, the two-piece set becomes more practical.
A breathable technical base layer, made of merino wool or synthetic materials, wicks sweat away from the skin. Avoid cotton, which retains moisture, and only add a thin fleece in very cold weather, as the suit is already insulated.
Children sit in the snow and fall often: a water column of at least ten thousand millimetres and taped seams keep them dry all day. Knee and buttock reinforcements extend its lifespan.
