Flylow Kids

Frequently Asked Questions

• What size and fit should I choose for Flylow kids' ski and snowboard jackets and bibs?

  Flylow youth sizing is modeled after adult cuts but includes kid-focused adjustability like extendable cuffs, adjustable hems, and reinforced bib straps so pieces can grow with your child. Pick a size with room for a midlayer—if between sizes, sizing up gives extra layering space and extends hand-me-down life without restricting movement.
• How do the Youth Chemical Pant and kids' bibs hold up to wet, rough play and repeated seasons?

  The Youth Chemical Pant and Flylow bibs are built from waterproof/breathable fabrics with durable reinforcements at cuffs and hems, PFC‑free DWR, and taped seams to shed wet snow and mud. They prioritize quick-drying stretch and robust construction so seams, zippers, and knees resist ripping during sledding, snow forts, and repeated hand-me-down use.
• How does the 2024 Youth Explorer Jacket compare to the Youth General's Down Jacket for cold, active days on the mountain?

  The 2024 Youth Explorer Jacket is a storm-ready, lightly insulated hardshell designed for wet, high-output days—it emphasizes breathability and water-shedding protection—whereas the Youth General's Down Jacket uses down insulation for superior warmth-to-weight in dry, cold conditions. Choose the Explorer for skiing/boarding and active play in wet weather, and the General's Down for cold lift rides, lodge time, or added warmth under a hardshell.
• What features make Flylow kids' outerwear durable and kid-proof?

  Flylow designs kids' pieces with high-loft Calaldo fleece midlayers, reinforced panels, durable zippers, articulated patterning, and gauntlet-style mittens to survive tumbles and rough play. Helmet-compatible hoods, snack-sized pockets, and easy-to-operate closures help garments stay functional season after season and simplify on-slope use for younger kids.
• Are Flylow kids' jackets and midlayers environmentally conscious?

  Many Flylow kids' pieces use recycled materials—like 100% recycled linings and post‑consumer fabrics—and PFC‑free DWR treatments to reduce environmental impact. The brand also incorporates durable design (longer useful life and hand-me-down potential) and lightweight Calaldo fleece midlayers to balance performance with lower material waste.
