Reima Kidswear: Ready for the Trail, the Splash Pad, and Everything in Between

We are thrilled to welcome Reima to the OutGrown community spotlight. As the number one kidswear brand from Finland, Reima creates clothing that supports outdoor play for children from birth to age 12. Their pieces are functional, sustainable, and thoughtfully designed for the active lives kids lead.

For families who want to spend more time outside and less time managing outfit changes, Reima offers comfort, coverage, and confidence in every season.

Summer Essentials for Outdoor Play

Reima’s summer collection is made for long days of play. With sun-safe designs and recycled, non-toxic materials, this line helps families enjoy the season with fewer worries. Every item is PFAS-free and made to support kids who climb, splash, and stretch their way through summer.

From swimwear and sandals to quick-dry apparel, the Summer Essentials collection combines function with fun. Whether your child is running through sprinklers or adventuring at the beach, these clothes are designed to keep them protected and comfortable.

Hiking Gear Made for Movement

Reima’s hiking collection helps kids feel capable and ready for adventure. Featuring UPF 50+ sun protection, weatherproof layers, and innovative cooling fabric, the gear is designed to support comfort on the move.

With barefoot shoes, Rolling Steps sneakers, and ReimaTec waterproof options, Reima footwear offers the grip and flexibility kids need for both short walks and longer treks. Their Xylitol Cool fabric also helps regulate body temperature, making outdoor time more enjoyable.

The collection is grounded in sustainability and built to last. Like everything Reima makes, the hiking line is PFAS-free and created with durable, eco-conscious materials.

A Gift for Our Community

This summer, Reima and OutGrown are teaming up to give one lucky family a $200 Reima gift card.

We want to celebrate the small, meaningful ways families connect with nature. Whether it is a group walk, a solo trail moment, or a backyard water play day, your adventure counts.

You can enter in two ways:

Add an outing to the OutGrown calendar for your local community
Or share a summer moment on Instagram using #summerofminiadventures and tagging @weareoutgrown @reimanorthamerica

Every outing, every story, every step outside matters. We hope this gift encourages more of it.

Why We Love This Partnership

Reima’s mission is to help kids stay active, comfortable, and safe outdoors. They focus on longevity, sustainability, and function without sacrificing softness or style. That kind of intentional design supports what we believe at OutGrown: that nature should feel doable, welcoming, and worth showing up for from the very beginning.

This partnership helps remove one more barrier to getting outside and reminds families that the right gear can be an invitation to play.

How Hike it Baby is More Than Hiking

Hike it Baby is not about hitting big trails or chasing milestones. It is about the simple, meaningful act of showing up, outside, together. We create space for families with young children to connect in nature, but it does not have to look like a hike. Sometimes it is a slow walk to a neighborhood bench. Sometimes it is a toddler-led wander where we barely leave the parking lot. And sometimes, it is just sitting in the grass and sharing a moment with someone else who gets it. This is our specialty. Low pressure. Come as you are, connection. We are not here to impress. We are here to include. To welcome. To witness the chaos and the calm side by side. (photographer: Michelle Pearl Gee-Nguyen) For many caregivers, getting out the door is the hardest part. We know what it is like to pack everything only to turn around five minutes later, and we know what it is like to feel isolated in those early years of parenting. Hike it Baby does not promise that everything will go smoothly, but we promise that you do not have to go it alone. Our outings are led by caregivers who live this life, too, volunteers who know what it is like to hold a fussy baby while navigating nap windows and weather forecasts. There is no pressure to keep pace. No one is judging if your child melts down. And no one expects you to know what you are doing. We are all figuring it out together. When we say Hike it Baby is more than hiking, we mean it. We mean shared snacks on the trail and strollers rolling through city parks. We mean nature connection that starts in a cul-de-sac. We mean the text from a fellow parent that says, “Same time next week?” This is not about the distance we cover. It is about the space we hold. For ourselves. For our kids. For each other. So if you are wondering whether you belong, the answer is yes. If you are waiting until you feel ready, we will meet you where you are. Hike it Baby is more than hiking. It is showing up. It is being seen. It is finding people with dirt under their feet and a little one in tow. Takeaway You do not have to hike to be part of Hike it Baby. You are doing it right if you are outdoors with your child and building community. This piece is part of OutGrown’s evergreen content.
