Kids' Jackets & Vests

Children's jackets earn their investment across more occasions than most other pieces in a young wardrobe — the ski slope in the Alps, a cold winter city abroad, a UAE winter evening outdoors, and the variable conditions that family travel consistently produces between departure and destination. Columbia's kids' jackets and coats collection covers every cold-weather and weather-resistant need across boys and girls from toddler through teen: ski jackets and insulated winter coats for serious cold, rain jackets for wet-weather protection, fleece jackets for mid-layer warmth, and puffer jackets that compress for travel without losing their warmth output. Every style built to the same technical standards as Columbia's adult outerwear — scaled to kids' proportions and the specific durability demands of active children.

Kids' Ski Jackets & Winter Jackets

Columbia's kids' ski jacket and winter jacket range covers the most demanding cold-weather use case in the collection — serious mountain cold on the ski slope, extended outdoor sessions in sub-zero conditions, and the sustained wind-chill of a chairlift ride at altitude that parents who have taken children skiing know well. The Boys' and Girls' Powder Lite II Hooded Jacket is the standout insulated winter jacket in the kids' range — synthetic insulation with a water-repellent outer shell and a packable construction that compresses into a bag pocket for travel storage between sessions. Omni-Shield™ Advanced Repellency on the outer fabric sheds light snow and moisture before it reaches the insulation. A fully adjustable hood provides head coverage that seals against cold wind on exposed ski runs. These are the childrens winter jackets that UAE families pack for ski trips to France, Austria, and Switzerland — genuinely warm enough for Alpine cold, light enough to pack without planning around.

Kids' Hikebound™ Insulated Jackets

The Girls' Hikebound II Long Insulated Jacket brings a longer hemline to the insulated kids' jacket range — mid-length coverage that extends warmth to the hip and upper thigh for maximum cold-weather protection during outdoor winter activity. Synthetic insulation retains warmth even in damp conditions — important for children who encounter snow, light rain, and variable mountain moisture across a full outdoor day. A relaxed active fit allows the full range of movement that children apply to outdoor activity without binding at the shoulders or restricting arm swing. For UAE girls heading to ski destinations or cold-weather outdoor environments with the family, the Hikebound II Long provides the most comprehensive lower-body coverage in the kids' insulated jacket range.

Kids' Rain Jackets & Waterproof Coats

Columbia's kids' rain jackets use Omni-Tech™ waterproof-breathable construction — a fully sealed membrane that blocks rain and wind from penetrating inward while allowing moisture vapour from a child's body heat and movement to escape outward, preventing the overheated, clammy feeling that non-breathable waterproof coats create during active wear. Every seam is fully sealed, closing the stitching gaps that standard waterproof fabrics allow rain to penetrate under sustained pressure. Adjustable hoods provide full head coverage that stays in position during active outdoor movement rather than falling forward or blowing back in wind. For UAE families who travel to rainy destinations — European cities, mountain routes, outdoor adventure locations during wetter seasons — a packable Columbia kids' raincoat removes the most avoidable wet-weather planning gap from a family travel kit. Available across boys' and girls' styles in a range of colourways from classic neutrals to brighter seasonal options that children actually want to wear.

Kids' Fleece Jackets — The Mid-Layer Foundation

Columbia's kids' fleece jacket range is the most consistently used cold-weather piece in the collection — warm enough as a standalone layer on mild cold days, versatile enough as a mid-layer under a rain jacket or ski jacket in more demanding conditions. The Kids' Fast Trek IV Fleece Full Zip Jacket and Kids' Fast Trek Recycled Fleece Jacket use plush polyester fleece in a full-zip format with an attached hood for additional head coverage. Available in black, blue, and seasonal colourways across boys' and girls' sizes — the kids' fleece jacket that lives in a family bag across every winter trip and earns daily wear from ski resort mornings through cold indoor-outdoor evenings at a mountain destination. The recycled fleece variant uses 100% recycled polyester without compromising warmth or construction quality — a more sustainable option at the same performance level.

Kids' Puffer Jackets — Packable Warmth for Travel

Columbia's kids' puffer jackets cover the lightweight, packable insulated jacket format — synthetic-fill constructions that compress to a fraction of their worn size for carry-on travel storage and expand to full warmth output when unpacked at a cold destination. The Powder Lite II Hooded Jacket in boys' and girls' sizes is the most consistently chosen kids' puffer jacket in the UAE range — light enough to forget is in the bag until it's needed, warm enough to handle genuinely cold outdoor conditions at European ski resorts and winter city destinations. For UAE families who travel frequently across varied climates and want kids' jackets that pack efficiently without sacrificing cold-weather performance on arrival, puffer jackets from the Columbia kids' range are the highest-value single outerwear investment in the collection.

Boys' Jackets — Active, Durable, and Built to Last

Boys' jackets in the Columbia collection are built for the active, physical use that boys consistently apply to their outerwear — reinforced at stress points, durable across the outdoor use that children deliver across a full family ski week or a season of cold-weather adventures. A boys' jacket from the Columbia range carries the same Omni-Tech™ waterproof construction, Omni-Shield™ repellency, and synthetic insulation as the adult equivalents — not a compromised children's version but a properly engineered piece scaled to younger proportions. Available from toddler through youth sizes in construction that holds its performance and appearance across more than a single season of regular use.

Girls' Jackets — Style and Technical Performance Together

Girls' jackets in Columbia's kids' range cover the full spectrum from waterproof rain shells to insulated winter coats in silhouettes and colourways suited to girls' preferences — purple, pink, blue, and white alongside classic neutrals that pair across the rest of the kids' wardrobe. Construction standards across every girls' jacket style match the technical specification of the adult women's range — Omni-Tech™ waterproof-breathable membranes, fully sealed seams, Omni-Shield™ repellency, and synthetic insulation that holds warmth in damp conditions. Adjustable hoods, cuffs, and hems extend the useful fit range across growth periods — girls' jackets that accommodate a full year of growth through the season rather than fitting perfectly in autumn and too short by spring.

Sizing and Fit for Kids' Jackets

A kids' jacket fits correctly when it allows a comfortable mid-layer underneath without excess fabric that flaps during active movement or a hem that extends too far below the waist. Columbia's kids' jackets are cut with active outdoor movement in mind — enough room across the shoulders and chest for full arm swing during skiing, snowball throwing, and playground use, and sleeves long enough to cover the wrist properly when arms are extended. Adjustable hoods, hook-and-loop or elastic cuffs, and drawcord hems allow fit adjustment as children grow within a size range. For families purchasing a kids' jacket intended to last through more than a single cold-weather season, buying at the generous end of the current size range and using the adjustable features extends useful life without compromising fit during the current season of use.
