When buying winter clothes for children, parents are faced with a difficult choice. There are a lot of companies offering bright and stylish models. Well-known brands produce clothes with artificial and natural fillers from different types of fabric. But not all models can withstand the low temperatures of the harsh Russian winter. Many sellers offer to pay attention to the clothes of Scandinavian brands. One of them is the Finnish company Tokka Tribe.
Tokka Tribe Brand Feature
The history of the Tokka Tribe trademark began in Finland. The local entrepreneur Vihtori Luhtanen in 1907 founded his own sewing production and at the same time engaged in the sale of created clothing. So there was a new trademark "Luhta" (Luhta). For almost a hundred years of its existence, the brand has become the largest producer in Europe and exporter of clothing to various countries of the world.
In 1990, the L-Fashion Group was created on the basis of the Luhta trademark, which founded several independent brands, including Tokka Tribe.
The company produces children's winter clothes intended for sports and outdoor activities. All models are light, almost weightless, but very warm.
Modern materials, stylish design, functionality and impeccable quality of tailoring, convenience and comfort to wear favorably characterize the Tokka Tribe brand. Children's clothing of this brand is especially popular among Russian buyers. The company offers models for children of different ages.
Winter jumpsuits Tokka Tribe
All Tokka Tribe products are designed for children from birth to 12 years. Depending on age, the brand’s winter clothing is divided into 3 groups:
- from birth to 2 years;
- from 2 to 6 years;
- from 7 to 12 years.
The Tokka Tribe brand offers customers winter overalls, semi-overalls and jackets, as well as stylish accessories, hats, gloves, scarves. The label of outerwear must indicate the weight of the insulation. It depends on what weather to wear a thing. For example, the weight of the insulation in overalls is 300 grams. This means that you can wear it at temperatures up to 30 degrees below zero. Such warm clothes are suitable for infants and inactive children. For active boys and girls, you can choose a Tokka Tribe jumpsuit with a lower filler weight.
The top layer of most brand models is membrane fabric. It has water repellent properties and provides excellent air circulation. A child who actively behaves in frosty weather often sweats in normal outerwear, and, switching to calm games, begins to freeze. Thanks to the membrane, the Tokka Tribe jumpsuit prevents the baby from overheating and sweating. Accordingly, his body temperature is maintained at an optimal level. The child is comfortable playing in such clothes and walking quietly.
The brand offers different types of overalls for children. For babies, the brand offers customers warm envelopes with a cotton lining and folding cuffs. For one-year-old children, you can choose transformer overalls. Thanks to special fasteners, the product is easily converted from an envelope into a full-fledged jumpsuit. The weight of the insulation in such models is 300 grams.
For children who are already two years old, you can choose a jumpsuit with a lighter filler. The more a child grows older, the more active he behaves on the street and will not freeze if the weight of the insulation is 200 grams. But due to the fact that the thing will be thinner, it will be easier for the baby to run in it.
Jackets & Pants
For children when buying outerwear, it is better to give preference to separate overalls. In such sets, as the child grows, you can change one of its components: trousers or a jacket. What are their features?
Outerwear sets for children over 2 years old have a thinner layer of insulation, because they are designed specifically for sports and outdoor activities. Jacket Tokka Tribe has a filler weighing 200-240 grams and should be used at a temperature of at least 20 degrees. It is made of water-repellent fabric, has a detachable hood and functional pockets.
Trousers Tokka Tribe externally resemble semi-overalls. They have detachable straps and special cuffs underneath that repel snow. The average weight of the insulation in trousers is 100-150 grams.
Tokka Tribe offers stylish coats for its customers. They have a knee length, an edge made of faux fur and functional pockets. Stylish coats will especially appeal to young fashionistas.
Hats and other accessories
Tokka Tribe has released no less warm accessories for outerwear. She offers customers knitted and filled hats, gloves and mittens, comfortable scarves. They complement the stylish image of the child.
For severe frosts for children, the Tokka Tribe hat is made of a water-repellent fabric with insulation, the weight of which is about 100 grams. Inside, it is additionally trimmed with faux fur.
