Find Your Size
European sizes are based on your child’s height in centimeters. Because kids of the same age can be different sizes, height is the best guide for fit.
Enter your child’s height in inches, and we’ll show the closest CM size range. This correlates to the first number in the size option. ie: 98 or 122. If CM sizing is not provided, simply choose the age provided.
💡 Tip: These are general guidelines. Always check specific brand size charts when possible, as sizing can vary between manufacturers.
Product Description
The Reima Taitoa Kids Merino Wool Base Layer Set is made for cold school mornings, snowy adventures, ski days, and everyday winter play. Its double-layer construction combines soft lyocell next to the skin with merino wool on the outside for comfortable warmth without adding bulky layers.
Designed as an easy first layer under snow gear and winter clothing, the Taitoa gives kids a soft, comfortable foundation for moving, exploring, and spending longer days outside.
Why Parents Love It
- Soft against the skin: Lyocell is positioned on the inside of the fabric for a smooth, comfortable feel.
- Merino wool warmth: Merino wool on the outside adds natural warmth for cold-weather layering.
- Made for layering: The streamlined base-layer design fits easily beneath snow pants, snowsuits, jackets, and mid layers.
- Two-piece versatility: Includes a long-sleeve top and coordinating bottoms that can be worn together or separately.
- Comfort for active days: A practical first layer for outdoor school, winter walks, skiing, sledding, and everyday cold-weather play.
Built for Real Outdoor Use
A good winter layering system starts with what kids wear closest to their skin. The Taitoa combines the softness of lyocell on the inside with the warmth of merino wool on the outside, creating a comfortable base for mornings that begin at outdoor school and afternoons spent climbing snowbanks or heading out on the trail.
Because it is designed as a lightweight first layer, kids can move freely without feeling weighed down by bulky clothing. Add a mid layer and weather-protective outerwear as conditions change, and the Taitoa becomes an easy part of a practical winter routine.
