Children's Columbia Fashion Brand

Columbia is the C letter's outdoor name, filed here for children's outdoor clothing and footwear from an outdoor-gear company. On this page you will find information regarding children's clothing with the Columbia brand, with a 2017 brand photo in the gallery below and a link to the directory's About Columbia Sportswear company profile. The company statement below sets out its claims about products, testing and heritage in its own terms.

They are committed to designing innovative and functional products for consumers who participate in a wide range of outdoor activities, enabling them to pursue their passions longer and in greater comfort by keeping them warm or cool, dry and protected. That mission sentence orders the children's buying checks for this label: a Columbia children's piece should be judged first on function - does it keep the child warm or cool as claimed, dry, and protected - because function is the entire point of the design.

Born and Raised in Portland, Oregon, For More Than 70 Years

Being an industry leader in outdoor apparel and products takes passion, and an understanding of people who love the outdoors. Born and raised in Portland, Oregon, Columbia Sportswear Company has been making gear so that Pacific Northwesterners can enjoy the outdoors for more than 70 years. At the helm for over 40 years has been our Chairman, Gert Boyle. Her Tough Mother persona has grown Columbia into the global sportswear company that it is today - still based in Portland, still making no-nonsense apparel and footwear. The elements are all here: the Portland birth, the seventy-plus years, Gert Boyle's forty-plus years at the helm, and the Tough Mother persona.

Quality and durability are important aspects of this, and they have vigorous material and product quality testing standards in place to ensure that their products are made to last. This helps to extend the life of the garments. For children's outdoor clothing, garment life is not an abstract virtue: a child's jacket that survives a full season of weather, washing and playground abrasion, and still fits the test the company sets - warm, dry, cool, protected - is the practical meaning of those testing standards, and hand-me-down life is where extended garment life pays a family back.

Warm, Dry, Cool and Protected - In All Seasons

Still based in Portland, still making no-nonsense apparel and footwear to keep you WARM, DRY, COOL and PROTECTED no matter what. Our unique Pacific Northwest heritage and Boyle family irreverence is what sets us apart from the competition. Get them suited up for winter wonderlands with great kid-tested gear for the brrrr season. Or if it is not that type of weather, find many clothing & footwear items for warmer climates as well. That closing passage, capitals and 'brrrr' included, makes the children's range explicitly two-season: winter gear and warm-climate clothing and footwear alike.

The brand's official kids page is linked in References below for the current children's range. Practical buying follows the framework above: choose the weather test first (cold, wet, hot), check the garment against the warm/dry/cool/protected promise for that test, allow growth room over layers for winter pieces, and expect the durability the company's testing standards claim.
