Shell suits for kids – durable protection for all kinds of weather
What is a shell suit – and who is it for?
A shell suit is a thin, windproof, and waterproof outer suit without insulation. This makes it suitable for year-round use, with layering underneath depending on the temperature. Our shell suits for kids are available in sizes 80–140, as well as various colours and cuts, so you can easily find a model suited for your child and the season.
Benefits of shell suits for kids
Shell suits for kids are an ideal choice for active children during transition seasons or rainy summer days. The materials are waterproof, windproof, and breathable, keeping the child dry without feeling clammy. Many of our shell suits feature reflective elements, adjustable waists, and removable foot straps for a perfect fit. The suit dries quickly and withstands rugged use—ideal for daycare, hikes, or days in the forest.
Our shellsuits are made from quality materials designed to withstand the weather – and childhood play. If damage occurs, you can order repair patches to fix small tears instead of buying a new suit. Extra foot straps are also available in our webshop.
When should you use a shell suit?
While winter suits and softshell suits have their seasons, a shell suit serves as a versatile outer layer. When combined with wool or fleece underneath, it provides warmth while protecting against rain and wind. It’s lightweight, easy to pack, and quick to put on at sudden weather changes—making it a favorite among parents and daycare staff alike.
