Winter Gear Must-Haves: Top Picks for Your Kids at Bounce Mkt
As the cold weather rolls in, it's time to get your kids ready for all the fun winter activities. Whether it's building snow forts, ice skating, or simply keeping warm while around town, having the right gear can make all the difference. At Bounce Mkt, we believe in providing high-quality, budget-friendly winter essentials that are good for both your wallet and the planet. Why spend a fortune on brand-new items when you can find top-notch secondhand gear that’s ready for the season?
We’ve curated a list of must-have winter gear for your kids that will keep them warm, dry, and stylish all winter long—without breaking the bank.
Here’s a peek at the best secondhand finds for winter:
1. Coats and Jackets
Durable, cozy winter coats and jackets are must-haves for kids during the colder months - and we think they are an excellent item to buy secondhand! Quality winter coats usually come with a big price tag, but when you shop secondhand, you can gear up without spending a fortune. Plus, many winter coats and jackets don't get a ton of use, so it is easy to find options that are in excellent condition!
Puffy coats are perfect for extra warmth when out and about during the winter, these coats are often high-quality, insulated, and built to last season after season. Look for brands like The North Face, Columbia, or Patagonia for long-lasting options.
If your kids love to play in the snow for hours on end or play winter sports, such as skiing or ice skating, a high-quality waterproof jacket is key for keeping them warm and dry.
2. Snow Pants & Snow Bibs
Nothing ruins a winter day of play like being cold. That’s why snow pants or snow bibs are an absolute necessity for kids who love to play outside in the snow. Look for options with built-in insulation to keep your little one’s legs toasty warm, even on the coldest days. You’ll also want to ensure that snow pants are waterproof.
Pro tip: many snow pants and snow bibs come with adjustable features to accommodate your child’s growth. This is always a plus as it means your little one can enjoy them for an extra winter season or two.
3. Winter Boots
Winter boots are essential for ensuring that your little one can enjoy winter without worrying about cold, wet feet. We always like to stock up on two types of winter boots for littles:
- · Everyday winter boots: We love a solid pair of everyday boots that kids can wear to and from school and their various activities during the cold month. In addition to providing extra warmth for cold days, finding a pair that is comfy enough to wear all day is key. Ugg is always a great option!
- · Snow boots: These boots are essential for keeping kiddos warm and dry during snowball fights, winter sports, and more. We also love boots that help them keep their grip on slippery icy surfaces. Some of our favorite brands for winter boots include Sorel, Bogs, and Kamik.
4. Base Layers
Layering is key to staying warm in winter, and having the right base layers can make a huge difference.
If your kids will be spending lots of time playing in the snow or participating in winter sports, getting some moisture-wicking thermal or wool layers is crucial. These layers are worn under snow gear and keep your kids warm and dry during outdoor play.
But don’t forget about everyday warmth – cozy knitwear, fleeces, and lined pants are great options for keeping kids warm, even when they aren't playing in the snow.
