Product Information

Full details

The Columbia Sportswear Nordic Strider III Parka is designed for children who need reliable protection against cold and wet urban environments. Featuring advanced Omni-Tech waterproof breathability and an Omni-Heat thermal-reflective lining, it ensures kids stay warm and dry without the bulk of traditional heavy coats. While the jacket offers excellent weather protection and longevity due to its adaptable design, it is primarily intended for light to moderate winter conditions rather than extreme arctic expeditions.

FAQs

Is this parka machine washable?

Yes, you can machine wash the jacket on a cold, gentle cycle. Always check the garment tag for specific temperature instructions.

What is the OUTGROWN system?

It is a built-in feature that allows you to extend the sleeve length of the jacket by approximately 1.5 inches, allowing the coat to grow with your child.

Is this suitable for heavy snow?

The parka features waterproof-breathable fabric and sealed seams, making it ideal for snowy walks and light to moderate snowfall.

How does the Omni-Heat lining work?

It uses small metallic dots on the lining material that reflect your body's own heat back toward your skin while remaining highly breathable.

Does it have a removable hood?

The hood is fixed, but it features a comfortable Sherpa lining to ensure maximum warmth around the face and head.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels less waterproof over time

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may have worn off. Apply a wash-in or spray-on DWR treatment to restore water beading.

Sleeve is too short for the child

Utilize the OUTGROWN system by locating and snipping the designated internal growth thread to extend the sleeve length.

Omni-Heat lining seems dull

Ensure the jacket is cleaned according to the care label instructions to remove body oils or dirt that can accumulate on the reflective surface.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior warmth-to-weight ratio due to Omni-Heat technology
  • Waterproof and breathable fabric prevents overheating
  • OUTGROWN system increases garment longevity
  • Added comfort features like Sherpa-lined hood and adjustable cuffs
  • Designed for durability in active urban use

Cons

  • Not intended for extreme, prolonged sub-zero temperatures
  • Requires proper care to maintain the waterproof membrane
  • Limited to kids' sizing and fits

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To begin using the OUTGROWN system, locate the internal stitching inside the sleeve cuff. Carefully remove the contrasting thread to release additional fabric, effectively lengthening the sleeves. For ongoing care, machine wash the jacket in cold water on a gentle cycle. It is recommended to use a technical fabric cleaner if available, and always avoid using fabric softeners, as these can degrade the waterproof properties of the shell. Tumble dry on a low setting, and avoid high-heat ironing, as this may damage the synthetic fibers and reflective lining.
