Details
Whoever thought that kids’ ski outerwear should be less technical or less waterproof and breathable than adult gear obviously hasn’t spent time with a kid in the mountains. Kids are in the snow constantly. They get hot, then they get cold. They break everything. The Explorer Jacket is our tribute to the junior groms who deserve high-quality, extra-durable, waterproof-breathable outerwear. No detail was overlooked—it’s got pockets that actually fit stuff, a hood that goes over a helmet, a thin layer of insulation, and enough longevity to last through countless hand-me-downs. (For the record: testing kids’ gear requires a lot of gummy bears and whipped cream. But we got the job done thanks to a stellar crew of hyper-stoked, jump-hitting mini-shredders.)

The Youth Explorer Jacket Features
50/50 Inbounds/Out-Of-Bounds
Conditions dependent, you split your time pretty evenly between the ski resort and the backcountry, which means you need gear that's tough and waterproof enough for the pounding of tram laps and storm skiing inbounds but won't sweat out on a climb on those days you decide to earn your turns. Here, we opt for fabrics and features that do double duty, like jacket powder skirts you can zip out or bib pants made for versatile pursuits.

The Youth Explorer Jacket Features
Surface 2L and 3L
Do this for a minute: Put on your ski jacket or pants and go step in the shower. If you’re wearing a Flylow piece made with Surface 2-layer or 3-layer hardshell fabric by Intuitive, you’ll watch the water bead up on the surface and slide right off. This burly, 150-Denier oxford weave, coated with a Durable Water Repellent, is designed to keep you warm and dry and have a tough but smooth feel. A nylon tricot on the backing protects the membrane and wicks moisture away from your body.
PFC-Free
PFCs, or perfluorocarbons, are found in chemicals often used in Durable Water Repellent (or DWR), and once released into the environment, those chemicals are no good. Instead of harmful PFCs, we’re using a friendlier, bio-based treatment that will still keep your fabric dry in a storm but is kinder to you and our planet.
Bluesign® Certified
We work with the best partners in the textile industry to ensure our products and materials meet the highest safety and environmental standards. From bluesign®-approved supply chains to products tested and approved by Oeko-Tex for consumer safety to Durable Water Repellents made without PFCs,we are certifying our supply chain and retaining all supply chain certificates for full transparency and to ensure that we use materials that align with our goal of making the least impact possible on the environment.
Primaloft Eco Black Insulation
A responsibly made synthetic alternative to down, this quick-drying thermal insulator is made from 100% recycled materials and maintains great weight to warmth ratio.
100% Recycled Lining Fabrics
Material made from 100 percent post-consumer recycled goods, keeping waste out of the landfill and promoting a circular economy.
