Growing Shell 2.0 Outdoor Down Jacket provides an outfit solution for children enjoying outdoor activities or urban travels. This series features a kid garment professional hardshell jacket and an inner thermal light down layer, allowing separate single-layer or multi-layer combination wearing based on temperature variance and weather conditions for optimal protection and warmth. The outer shell jacket embraces a nylon-covered spandex face fabric laminated with a white polyurethane (PU) waterproof and breathable membrane, achieving a water pressure and moisture permeability rating of 8000/8000 (Level II standard for hardshell jackets) and windproof performance of less than 50mm/s. Combined with seam sealing technology and PFC-free DWR technology, this outfit adapts to variable outdoor conditions.
The outer shell jacket comes with graphene-infused striped knit fabric capable of increasing skin temperature by up to 1.8°C due to the far-infrared effect, ensuring effective temp-locking and heat retention. The inner light down applies 90% goose-down fill and a zonal insulation design for a double and precise thermal effect.
This product adopts multiple lightweight designs to maximize kids' freedom of movement in outdoor activities. The outer shell utilizes a base cloth composite textured knit fabric to reduce weight by 20%. The inner light-down layer with 20D fine denier nylon fabric (about 40 g) facilitates kids' free movement in cold winters. In addition, the 18-degree arc-shaped sleeve patent design conforms to child kinetics, bringing more comfort and making this product suitable for diverse scenarios.
