Growing Kids? Guide From Youth Sizes to Adult Sizes

Finding the perfect balance between comfort, safety, and adapting to your kid's rapidly evolving sizes can be complicated and costly! With all of the above in mind, our ski clothing stores feature a versatile lineup of multipurpose designs that grow with your kids and help them get the most out of every powder day. Alongside supporting your kids with the best gear possible, we’ve made it our mission to support you with seasonal specials and superior quality that shield your budget and improve your ski trip with the right gear for any age and skill level. 


As you explore our ever-changing collection at the Ski Bum, never hesitate to reach out for guidance. Many of our trending kid’s options feature multiple sizes and come with a range of adjustable features ranging from dual-purpose coats to easily modifiable bindings that provide lasting utility for multiple ski seasons. Take a look at these versatile children’s ski equipment ideas and stay a step ahead of your kid’s next growth spurt! 

Purchase Winter Attire With the Future in Focus


Make the most of your kid’s winter wardrobe by purchasing items that are a year or two ahead of their time. With a longer pair of snow pants or a slightly oversized coat, you can protect your kids from the chill with an extra layer of thermal protection until they grow into the gear. Even on warmer days, longer items can be worn higher, tucked into boots, or simply worn a little baggy without compromising on style or mobility. 

Consider Adaptable Items That Offer a Wider Range of Utility


Even with items that require a snug fit like helmets or boots, there’s always a little wiggle room if you are creative. As long as safety is always prioritized, many items feature easily adjustable features that accommodate multiple sizes. Even with items like a helmet that has a narrow range of adaptability to maintain safety, a smart addition like a headliner underneath the helmet can ensure the perfect fit and protect their ears from the frigid temps! 


Other adjustable items to look for include bindings, mittens, and goggles. Many of our trending brands offer user-friendly elastic, zippers, and velcro for on-the-go modifications, ensuring a great fit even if you purchase sizes a year or two ahead of their current fit. 

Aim for Off-Season & Last Year’s Deals 


When updating your kid’s wintertime collection, forget the overpriced peak pricing and shop at the Ski Bum for the best deals all year long. Even during the winter peak season, we keep our stores stocked with amazing items from the year before and regularly rotate our specials with your fast-growing kids in mind. We work directly with our leading brand partners, allowing us to grab higher-quality items and offer unbeatable deals on all of last season’s and this season’s newest offerings.
