View Product DetailsCustomer Reviews
What customers say:
The Wildcat Ski Jacket is praised for its quality, warmth, and durability. It is described as well-made, waterproof, and suitable for various weather conditions. Parents appreciate that the jacket is lightweight yet warm, and can be passed down as their children grow. However, some customers noted issues with the sizing, as the jacket runs large, and the hood is too big for everyday use. A few reviewers also mentioned the fabric developing holes after washing, indicating potential quality concerns. Despite these minor drawbacks, the majority of customers are satisfied with the jacket and recommend it for active kids who enjoy outdoor activities in cold weather.

Lightweight winter jacket
Size Purchased: Kids' L (14-16)
This is a lightweight winter jacket. It’s not as heavy as I thought it would be so I guess it’s good for layering.

Size up two sizes
Size Purchased: Kids' XL (18)
Used for: Casual or Every Day
The sizing is off on this jacket, sadly. Runs very small. Will be returning. We bought the size XL/18 for a slim 14 year old boy and it barely zipped.

Only last one season
Size Purchased: Kids' L (14-16)
Used for: Casual or Every Day
Bought this a year ago, hoping to get 2-3 seasons out of it. My son tried to wear it for the first time this season and the zipper completely broke. It's a pretty cheap plastic.
