Children's ski clothing
An adult, going for an active walk in the winter season, very often thinks about what he should wear.
If this is a walk in the park, then most likely he will put on a down jacket, if a run along the alley, then he will prefer a winter tracksuit with insulation. But when it comes to winter sports, in particular, snowboarding or skiing, then there is no doubt. The most important attribute of a skier (of course, apart from sticks and skis) is a ski suit. There is a huge selection of sportswear brands that offer a variety of options for the most selective buyers for every taste, color and budget.
If everything is clear with adult clothing, everyone knows their physical potential, taste preferences in the choice of material, color, can assess how comfortable they are in a suit, then with ski clothing for children, everything becomes much more complicated. How to choose the right ski suit for your child? You should understand a little about what should be ski clothing for children.
Do not freeze or overheat
First of all, it is worth remembering that wrapping children in multi-layered clothes, as grandmothers like to do, is absolutely not worth it. As soon as the child has outgrown his own stroller and begins to walk on the street, his activity increases significantly. Children are almost always very mobile.Parents are often very worried that the child may freeze and try to dress him “with a margin”. But overheating is no less dangerous than hypothermia. Raw clothes cool much faster and then colds cannot be avoided.
All over the world, three layers of clothing are considered the most optimal:
- the main layer (not allowing the body to sweat);
- middle layer (thermal insulation);
- protective layer (protects from external factors such as wind, snow and precipitation).
Thermal underwear is usually considered the main layer. It helps regulate body temperature. The middle layer, whose task is to keep warm, is usually called fleece sweaters, and in severe frosts - fur. Then warm air will circulate, and in case of overheating, the necessary ventilation will be created. But the protective layer is the very ski suits that should protect from snow, wind and keep warm.
The technology for the production of children's ski clothing is practically the same as the technology for the production of clothing for adults. On the contrary, the most popular sports brands are placing a special emphasis on the development of more and more physical sportswear for children.
Right choice
Accessories
Do not forget about such important components of children's ski clothing as shoes, hat and gloves. The main thermoregulation of the child passes through the head, so it is worth choosing a hat made of "breathable" materials. As a rule, a hood from a ski jacket or a protective helmet is also put on top of the hat - therefore, it is worth giving preference to fleece hats or hats made of fine wool so that the head does not change.
Ski boots are, of course, ski boots.When choosing them, first of all, they measure the size of the legs, the girth of the calves and take into account the thickness of the sock, which will keep the legs warm. When choosing socks for a child, it is worth considering the same rule of three layers. Then the feet will not freeze and will not sweat.
When the question arises of choosing children's ski gloves, it is worth considering whether they are really necessary for a small baby. It is better to buy ski mittens. High-quality ones consist of three layers: synthetic, insulation and membrane. In such mittens, the baby's hand will "breathe", they will not sweat at the most crucial moment.
