Design details

Stops snow from getting inside - generally

This kids’ snowboard jacket (or kids’ ski jacket, that works too) is designed to stop snow getting inside: _ on the back: snow skirt + longline cut, _ at the cuffs (extremely exposed area): long sleeves + cuffs with thumb loops to stop snow from entering, _ at the neck: collar with a high gusset / hood with rip-tab to keep it rolled in high position and protect the neck. The hood can also be worn over a helmet.

Stops snow from getting inside - focus on the very sensitive wrist area

This jacket has been developed and tested with the MI 500 JR PROTECT snowboard mittens which go under the jacket so that kids can easily pass the mittens through the sleeve on their own (from 8 years upwards - at 6 years old it's still complicated). Then there are a host of features to keep the snow out 1. jacket sleeve with thumb loop to prevent the sleeve riding up, 2. the mitten reaches high up the wrist , 3. the jacket sleeve then covers everything.

Warmth

For warmth, this jacket has 2 different fillings to perfectly meet the need for heat: _ 150 g/m² for the body, with a fleece lining, _ 100 g/m² on the sleeves.

Waterproofing

As well as the waterproof fabric, we enhance the waterproofing of our kids' snowboard jackets, or our kids’ ski jackets, with taped seams. These are heat-bonded waterproof strips placed on the seams inside the clothing to make it perfectly watertight. On this SNB JKT 500 jacket, 100% seams are taped.

5 pockets

This Decathlon kids’ snowboard jacket is designed for regular to intensive snowboarding, so it has all the pockets required: _ 2 side pockets closed with a zip, _ 1 external chest pocket closed with a zip, _ 1 interior mesh pocket for a buff, goggles, etc _ 1 ski pass pocket on the left sleeve closed with a zip.

Hood rolled under the helmet

When snowboarding, snow can get in the jacket during a fall. To limit this unpleasant experience, the collar and hood were designed together. So that the hood can be used as a scarf and keep the snow out, fold the hood in 4 and velcro it so that it stays up and fills the gap under the helmet. The collar must be closed normally, up to the top to keep everything tight.

Hood over the helmet

The hood of this jacket is designed to fit over a helmet, in case of strong winds, heavy snowfall, etc. In this position, open the collar of the jacket by about 10 cm, pull the hood over the helmet and simply close the collar with the gusset (rip-tab closure). The gusset creates a well-protected area for the mouth and nose.

How should you dress your kids to ensure they don't get cold on the slopes?

To make sure you stay warm and dry, we recommend using the 3-technical-layer rule: - Layer 1 or a second skin, to stay dry. - Layer 2 or an insulating layer, to keep the heat in. - Layer 3 or a protective layer to protect against the elements.

Water often gets in through the seams. Does my jacket have taped seams?

What is the water repellent feature of my jacket for?

The water-repellent feature makes water run off the fabric without seeping in thanks to a treatment applied to its outer surface. The fabric does not soak up water and stays light and warm. This treatment must be renewed during the life of the product, after 2 to 3 washes on average, using products available in our stores. All the waterproof jackets that we design for snowboarders are water repellent.

How will my jacket keep me warm?

To keep the kids warm, we use wadding insulation. Wadding is a synthetic component made from polyester which stores more or less air, depending on the length of the fibres. Wadding can be standard, hi-tech or silicone-coated, each with different properties (warmth, low weight, elasticity, etc.)

Usage & care

How to use

Choosing your snowboard jacket

All snowboard jackets should be warm, waterproof, breathable and allow free movement. However, there are certain features that make them more suited for certain environments and types of riding. For example, in higher altitudes and lower temperatures, you’ll need a jacket with more insulation. For higher temperatures, breathability becomes more important. Or, if you’re planning on freeriding or hitting the park, you might consider a jacket that allows the most movement.

Washing your snowboard jacket

To preserve the performance of your snowboard jacket, we recommend that you machine wash it at 30° on a synthetics programme, turning it inside out, with a small amount of detergent (do not use fabric softener).

For drying, wring it out by hand and then leave on a hanger in a warm, well-ventilated place. Do not dry clean. Do not dry it on a radiator.

Maintaining water resistance

Water resistance must be renewed during a product’s lifetime. We recommend retreating the product after 2 to 3 washes with our Water Repellent Re-Activator Spray.
