Top Quality + price pick
We love the lightweight Switchback II raincoat from Columbia, a rainproof windbreaker with freedom of movement perfect for school playgrounds or hiking in drizzles.
While it's not built to block a heavy rainfall or storm, it's just peachy on rainy summer days. Because it isn't lined, your kid should wear a sweater layered underneath for cooler days in spring and autumn.
Technically a girls coat, we suggest the Columbia Glennaker for boys - or if you want something for wetter days.
Price: 0.00$
Pros
- Price
- Very lightweight
- Freedom of movement
- Easy to layer underneath
Cons
- Water-resistant, not waterproof
