The first frost is in the air, the leaves are falling, and the days are getting shorter – winter is coming! For many families, this means it's time for new, warm clothes for the kids. Especially for the school year, a sturdy jacket and a reliable backpack are essential. In this blog post, we'll show you what to look for when buying and how to save money so your child can start the winter months well-equipped.
What You Should Know
The selection of kids' jackets and backpacks is huge, and it's not always easy to find the right one. Besides appearance, functionality, quality, and your child's comfort play a crucial role. A jacket should not only keep warm but also be waterproof and windproof so your child can play outside and walk to school even in bad weather. A backpack should offer enough space for books, notebooks, lunchboxes, and other important items while also being comfortable to carry.
- Warmth & Material: Look for good insulation (down, synthetic fibers) and a waterproof, breathable outer material.
- Fit: The jacket should allow for plenty of movement but not be too loose so that heat doesn't escape. It's best to try the jacket on with the backpack.
- Safety: Reflective elements are especially important so your child is visible in traffic.
- Backpack Size: The backpack shouldn't be too heavy and should sit well on the back. A good rule of thumb is that the weight of the backpack should not exceed 10% of the child's body weight.
- Durability: Kids are active! Look for robust materials and good workmanship so the jacket and backpack last a long time.
Practical Tips
Choosing the right jacket and backpack is often a family affair. Involve your child in the decision! This increases the likelihood that they'll be happy with the new clothes and enjoy wearing them. Here are a few practical tips:
- Try the jacket with the backpack on: This way you can see if the combination works well and if the jacket restricts the backpack.
- Pay attention to the water column: The water column indicates how well a material is waterproof. For school and the school commute, at least 3,000 mm is recommended.
- Check the breathability: A breathable material prevents your child from getting cold from sweating.
- Consider ease of care: Kids' clothes are often heavily used. Look for easy-care materials that can be easily washed.
- Look at the details: Cozy edges on sleeves u
