Product Information

Full details

The Columbia Nordic Strider III Waterproof Parka is an ideal choice for kids who need reliable protection during cold, wet urban winters, offering a blend of lightweight synthetic insulation and advanced thermal-reflective technology. It excels at keeping young explorers warm and dry through school runs and park play thanks to its waterproof construction and smart growth-friendly design. While it offers excellent versatility, parents should note that the insulation is specifically engineered for active urban use rather than extreme high-mountain expeditions.

FAQs

Is this jacket truly waterproof?

Yes, it features Omni-Tech technology with critically seam-sealed construction to prevent water from penetrating during normal rain and snow conditions.

How does the Outgrown system work?

The sleeves feature internal stitching that, when removed, allows the sleeve length to extend by approximately 1.5 inches to accommodate a growing child.

Can I put this in the dryer?

Yes, it is generally safe to tumble dry on low heat, which also helps restore the DWR coating on the exterior fabric.

What is the weight of the insulation?

This jacket uses 150gsm synthetic insulation, which is designed to provide a high warmth-to-weight ratio.

Does the hood detach?

The storm hood is fixed, but it features an adjustable design to ensure a snug fit around the head for better protection.

How should I clean the Sherpa lining?

The Sherpa lining can be machine washed along with the jacket. Use a gentle cycle and avoid harsh chemicals to keep the fibers soft.

Troubleshooting

Water appears to be soaking into the outer fabric

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may need refreshing. Tumble dry on low heat or apply a DWR spray treatment to restore water beading.

Sleeve is too short

Use the built-in Outgrown system by identifying the contrast-colored thread inside the sleeve cuff and carefully removing it to add extra length.

Zipper feels stiff or stuck

Check for debris or fabric caught in the teeth. Clean the zipper path with a soft brush and apply a small amount of graphite or specialized zipper lubricant if necessary.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Integrated Outgrown system extends the life of the garment
  • Effective waterproof and windproof protection for wet climates
  • Lightweight feel despite high thermal efficiency
  • Adjustable cuffs and waist help seal out cold drafts
  • Machine washable for easy maintenance

Cons

  • Not intended for extreme sub-zero mountaineering
  • Requires proper care to maintain the waterproof membrane
  • Only available in a specific color range

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep the parka in top condition, refer to the interior care label for temperature-specific washing instructions. Always close all zippers and hook-and-loop fasteners before placing the jacket in the washing machine to prevent snagging. Use a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, as these can degrade the waterproof coating. To activate the Outgrown system, locate the seam inside the sleeve, pull the inner lining out, and snip the designated stitching thread to extend the arm length. Store the jacket on a sturdy hanger in a dry, well-ventilated area when not in use.
