SHRED DOG Kids’ Elevated Hardshell

From the harshest storms to warmer bluebird spring days. To keep kids dry in wet conditions, this hardshell is fully seam-taped, and all exposed zippers are waterproof. In cold conditions, kids can layer (or zip-in) the Element Insulator for maximum warmth. For warmer spring conditions, kids can leave the insulator at home and simply wear the highly breathable hardshell over a baselayer and open up the underarm vents.

SHRED DOG Kids’ Elevated Convertible Bib/Pant

The snow pants you wish we made in adult sizes. Elite level waterproofing and breathability paired with all the features your kids need to enjoy their time in the snow.

Pair this top of the line convertible bib with one of our hardshell jackets and your kid will want to stay on the mountain no matter the weather.

SHRED DOG Kids’ Element Insulator

The Element is an enhanced update to our insulator jackets with a higher performance face fabric that has improved durability and increased wind resistance. The Element can be worn as a stand-alone jacket, layered underneath a hardshell, or it can also zip-in to the Elevated Hardshell. The technical design utilizes strategic body mapping with more insulation throughout the core to keep active kids warm without causing them to overheat and sweat. The synthetic 3M™ Thinsulate™ insulation is extremely warm and low profile for enhanced freedom of movement with less bulk.
