Keep Warm - What Makes a Jacket Warm

The most important problem in winter is, of course, low temperatures. Not only can it reduce resistance to disease, but also walking around in under-insulated clothing is simply uncomfortable for children.

Winter jacket for girls - what length to choose?

When choosing a jacket for your daughter, pay attention to a few things. The first is the length. Longer-cut jackets that end at thigh height are best for winter. This length provides your child with good insulation from the cold and from the wind, which in shorter styles can blow around the body, chilling the body. Thigh-length is also more practical than long coats for children, who are much more active than adults. This cut provides both optimal warmth and freedom of movement when playing outdoors.

Resistant fabrics and fillings for winter jackets for girls

Adequate padding in a heavy-weight jacket will ensure thermal comfort. When choosing a winter jacket for girls, also check the outer fabric. Its main function is to keep your child dry during rainy days or snow play. A good choice is a jacket finished with 100% polyester, which is exceptionally moisture-resistant and retains warmth for a long time. The outer fabric should be impregnated, meaning it's moisture-resistant thanks to appropriate manufacturing technology . The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating on Endo winter jackets for girls allows water droplets to roll off the fabric, preventing it from soaking through.

Interior trim in winter jackets for girls

Another desirable feature of the jacket is its warm inner fabric, which provides additional warmth for the child . A fleece or warm fur lining is both very comfortable and pleasant to the touch for even the most demanding toddler.

A high neck closure and a hood fit for a snow queen

A girl's winter jacket should definitely have a warm and spacious hood. Hoods trimmed with fur are not only impressive but also very practical. The protruding fur "catches" snowflakes, preventing them from getting inside the hood. Choose hoods spacious enough to accommodate fancy hats with large pom-poms. The hood's interior is also important. The pleasant material warmly envelops the child's head and face, providing comfort while wearing the jacket. It's also important to protect the neck from the cold. Check the collar of the jacket. If your child doesn't like wearing scarves, choose a model with an additional stand-up collar, trimmed with warm fur or fleece, which will warm the neck and protect against frost.

What style to choose a winter jacket for a girl?

Teenagers' tastes can be unpredictable, blindly following current, not always sensible trends. Fortunately, with little ones, parents still have the most important say in choosing clothes. It's certainly worth considering which jackets the child likes, but let's also use adult common sense. A winter jacket should definitely be longer to protect against the cold but also to allow for occasional play in the snow. The best length for this time of year is thigh-length. The jacket should be comfortable enough for the child to move freely in. Straight, elongated cuts are ideal. For girls' winter jackets, you can try additional drawstrings to accentuate the waist if you're looking for a more girly look. The wide selection of colors and patterns of jackets can be intimidating. How do you choose the right one? After selecting a model, let your child decide which pattern and color to choose. Your daughter will feel she has a say in the appearance of her clothes, which also helps build independence. We can help her choose by giving her a few tips.

What colors and patterns of jackets are best for winter?

• Smooth jackets will be more versatile and suitable for both special occasions and everyday use.
• Dark colors will “hide” minor dirt for longer and are also more elegant.
• Bright, unusual colors are a good help in finding a child in a crowd, for example on a ski slope
• Abstract patterns are most often found on sports models, e.g. snowboard jackets.
• Jackets fully covered with illustrations are very interesting, but they can quickly get boring for a child, it is better to choose a model with a single, small illustration

How to choose the right jacket size for your child

In brick-and-mortar stores, it's best to buy jackets with your child in tow. Choose a loose-fitting jacket that won't constrict your little one. Buying a jacket larger than usual is a good strategy during periods of rapid growth, but don't overdo it. Buying a jacket 2-3 sizes larger will make your child uncomfortable and limit their range of motion, and there's no guarantee the jacket will last the next season. When buying a jacket online, follow the seller's instructions. It's best to measure your child and choose the right size according to the size chart. You can also use standard child size charts, but keep in mind that these are approximate and you may need to change the jacket size after your child tries it on.

An essential feature of a girl's winter jacket - reflectors

Reflective elements are a must-have feature in winter jackets. In winter, children will often be moving around after sunset, so reflective elements are an absolute must-have for any girl's winter jacket. However, they don't have to spoil the look of the garment. Often, as in the case of Endo jackets, reflective elements are placed on the jacket in the form of decorative illustrations, such as a cat's face, an inscription, or a heart. Although jackets are well-marked with reflective elements, it's a good idea to "add" additional illumination to the child with independent reflective elements attached to a backpack or as wristbands.
