We are proud to have been awarded Best Children’s Snowsuit of 2021.

Our Padded Winter Overall has been named Best Choice after being tested by children in different weather conditions for an entire winter.

Price Runner’s independent test involved 60 children who evaluated which padded overall was the Best Choice. Price runner describes our Padded Overall as a “real hit” with kids and named it their best choice. In Price Runner’s independent test, 11 products were tested over a five-month period and each snowsuit was used by children aged 1 to 10 years old. The test ran from November to March and the snowsuits were used for sledging and playing in snow and temperatures below zero, as well as on bare ground and in slush in milder winter weather.

To be named as Best in Test, a snowsuit must have a good fit, keep the child warm and dry, and cope with crawling and climbing activities.

"Polarn O. Pyret Have Done Everything Right"

"The wear resistance too was praised by our testers. After a long winter, the snowsuit looks like new. It also helps that it’s easy to keep clean. Dried mud can easily be brushed off. If you have to wash it, the snowsuit can be tumble dried, but even drip dries efficiently overnight."

"Looking for a good value, high quality snowsuit?

We tested a wide range of snowsuits for children. To be named as Best in Test, a snowsuit must have a good fit, keep the child warm and dry, and cope with crawling and climbing activities.

Children’s snowsuits: 11 products tested
How we did the test
We carry out our tests ourselves and test all snowsuits as they are intended to be used in reality. In our independent test of snowsuits, each snowsuit is used by three different children aged 1 to 10 years old The test runs from November to March, and the snowsuits are used for sledging and playing in snow and temperatures below zero, as well as on bare ground and in slush in milder winter weather.

At the end of the winter, the state of the snowsuit is evaluated by the child's parents, who responded to a comprehensive questionnaire focusing on these areas:

Functionality: Does the snowsuit keep your child warm and dry regardless of the weather? Does the snowsuit cope with play in puddles and slush without leaking? Is the material strong enough to withstand the wear and tear of children crawling and climbing?

Ease of use: Is it easy for your child to take off and put on the snowsuit? Is the fit roomy without being bulky? How well do the zip, hood, and arm and leg openings work?

Refinements: Is the snowsuit dirt repellent and can it be easily washed if necessary? What’s the design like? Are there enough reflectors?

The families’ reviews of the snowsuit have been looked at in view of the price to give its final score. We also place great weight on the durability of the snowsuits. A test-winning snowsuit should be in good enough condition to be able to be used for several winters.

1. Polarn O. Pyret WeatherPRO - BEST CHOICE CHILDREN'S SNOWSUIT
Excellent durable, warm and waterproof snowsuit, suitable for all kinds of winter.

  • Test year: 2020/2021
  • Price: £160
  • Material: Polyamide, PrimaLoft® padding, recycled polyester lining.
  • Water resistance: 12000 mm
  • Breathability: 5000 m2/24h
  • Taped seams: Yes
  • Impregnation: Yes BIONIC FINISH® ECO
  • Machine washable: Yes
  • Tumble dry: Yes, on low heat

Polarn O. Pyret are a well-known manufacturer of children's clothing, with a popular range of outdoor clothing. And this year’s snowsuit is perhaps the result of long experience in the industry? Because the PO.P WeatherPRO is a real hit.

Good fit but small in size
The fit is good, it’s easy to get on and roomy in the body, with a waist that can be adjusted. PO.P are known for having large sizing, but the WeatherPRO is more true to size, or slightly short in length in the back, and some children will need to go up in size. Particularly for younger children, the long zip, which goes all the way down to the crotch, is a big plus.

The leg and arm openings do their job well. The arm opening can be adjusted with Velcro, so you can easily choose between having the mitten above or below it. The legs have a fairly stiff elastic strap that goes around the shoe, with the advantage that the snowsuit stays watertight.

An snowsuit for all kinds of winter
Slushy weather poses no problems for the PO.P WeatherPRO. The snowsuit has never leaked, either through the fabric or into the arms and legs. In fact, the snowsuit doesn’t even feel particularly wet after intense play in slushy weather.

But if the winter is cold and with lots of snow rather than mild and wet, the WeatherPRO works just as well. Our test families consistently gave the highest ratings for thermal retention, protection against the wind and ventilation. The children never get cold, while the snowsuit breathes and has a high but quite wide collar. This makes possible active play without a risk of sweating, and calm play without getting cold.

Polarn O. Pyret have done everyone right
The wear resistance too was praised by our testers. After a long winter, the snowsuit looks like new. It also helps that it’s easy to keep clean. Dried mud can easily be brushed off. If you have to wash it, the snowsuit can be tumble dried, but even drip dries efficiently overnight.

More reflectors would be desirable, and this would neither be difficult nor expensive for the manufacturer to correct.

Other than this, Polarn O. Pyret have outdone themselves. The WeatherPRO is a stylish snowsuit, well worth every penny. Particularly if you take into account the fact that the quality is so high the snowsuit can easily be used for at least one and probably several more winters
