Product Information

Full details

The Columbia Sportswear Nordic Strider III Waterproof Parka is an ideal choice for kids who need reliable protection during cold, wet urban days. By combining Omni-Tech waterproof-breathable fabric with Omni-Heat thermal-reflective lining, it provides significant warmth and dryness without unnecessary bulk. While this jacket excels in versatile weather conditions, parents should note that it is designed primarily for urban environments and school-related activities rather than extreme mountaineering or alpine performance.

FAQs

Is this jacket machine washable?

Yes, it is machine washable. Please use a gentle cycle with cold water and avoid harsh detergents or softeners.

What is the Outgrown system?

The Outgrown system is a built-in feature that allows you to lengthen the sleeves of the jacket by cutting specific threads inside, allowing the garment to grow with your child.

Is the hood removable?

The hood is attached to the jacket; it features an adjustable design with partial elastic for a snug fit.

Can this be worn in heavy rain?

Yes, it uses Omni-Tech waterproof-breathable fabric and critically sealed seams, making it highly effective against rain and slush.

Does it have a thermal lining?

Yes, it features Omni-Heat thermal-reflective lining, which uses tiny silver dots to reflect and retain body heat.

Troubleshooting

Water appears to soak into the outer fabric instead of beading off

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may have worn off. Wash the jacket and follow up with a technical gear re-waterproofing spray.

The sleeve length is too short for the child

Check the interior lining for the Outgrown system stitching and release the extra seam allowance as described in the care section.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of the garment, follow these care instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Use a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, as they can degrade the waterproof coating.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on low heat. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storage.
  3. Outgrown System: To extend the sleeves, turn the garment inside out and locate the colored thread in the sleeve lining. Carefully snip the thread to release the extra fabric length.
  4. Storage: Hang the parka in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid folding it while damp to prevent mildew or fabric damage.
