Reima  Tartu Reimatec Gloves - Kids'

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My 13 year old used these for his first time snowboarding for a couple of days. He is rough on everything (as most 13 yr old boys are) and really put them through the paces with a lot of falls. I give them 5 stars for comfort and warmth (temperatures were in the 20s). Waterproof score was around a 2.5, as they got pretty wet on the inside, but did manage to maintain their warmth even when wet. My two daughters wore their new Ote mittens and they were perfect and stayed dry.

This is my son’s second pair of Reimatec- Tartu. They are the absolute best. The last pair lasted him two years of daily use in Montana, including skiing. He’s outgrown the old pair but they are still holding up to my surprise. The sizes run very small. My son is an average size nearly 8 year old and the size 4-6 year old gloves fit him perfectly. When he was 5 he wrote the 2-4 year old size. I’m very pleased with these gloves. I just wish they made them in adult sizes!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These gloves seem really study and my kid says they feel cozy. The only problem is they’re too big for him this year… I used the hand measurement guide and he has very long fingers for a 5 year old and seemed to match with the 6-8 size. But the space from the base of his thumb to his pointer finger knuckle is too short for the glove to fit right. So even if your kid seems to have big hands and is at the higher end of the age range, I recommend buying their real-age size.

I bought two sets of these for my then 5 yr old to play outdoors, assuming I’d swap them every other day when they got soaked, as other gloves did. But these are really water proof so the spare pair wasn’t really necessary. Three years later they’re still in great shape. More importantly, I bought two pairs of mittens for skiing and I’m fully satisfied. They’re the only mittens we’ve tried that don’t get wet when playing in the snow (and we’ve tried many).

So far, so good! I originally ordered the 6-8 for my 8 year old, based on measuring per the size chart, but either I did it wrong or they run large. Easily exchanged them for the 4-6 and they fit great! He said they were warm and comfy while making some snowballs! These will be great for him at forest school!

I love the easy to open clasp to keep the gloves connected. I wish the cuff went up the sleeve farther to keep snow out. The wrist clasp is wonderful- so easy to tighten and loosen. My daughter enjoyed the gloves while making snowmen today and she has about an inch of room to grow.

Got the size 2-4 years for my nearly 4-year-old. They are so big I'm not even sure if they'll fit by next year. I understand that this brand usually runs big, but I feel like it's pretty important that gloves be true to size. Oh well, I guess two years from now we'll use them.

Very warm and water proof. Have been great for skiing. Would have been 4 stars except the cuff needs to come up the arm further; they’re a bit short. I know there are longer gloves, but not available in a color other than black and my 4yo likes their rainbow colors!

Surprisingly lightweight, well-designed, waterproof gloves. Kids love them and their hands stay cozy and dry. Best part is no toxic PFAs; it's what led me to Reima and I'm glad it did because every piece we've bought has been top-notch. Adult sizes when? :)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got these for my son in the orange-ish color. It’s a great color. I got him the large size - he’s an average size 12yr old - they fit great. I tried them on and they almost fit me - may need to get myself a pair. Very soft inside. Very happy with purchase.
