Material and Fit
Recycled PET puffer fill performs comparably to virgin polyester fill at the same GSM, providing reliable warmth-to-weight without added bulk. The 35gsm shell is lightweight enough to keep the jacket packable and easy to carry, while the 80gsm insulation layer delivers meaningful warmth in temperatures down to approximately 10-12 degrees Celsius. The hood is fixed rather than detachable, giving kids consistent coverage without loose parts. Sizes run from 4K (approximately age 4) to 14K (approximately age 14), following the standard Australian kids sizing convention.

The JUNEAU Adults version uses the same shell and insulation construction for a matched family or team look. If you need a waterproof shell rather than a puffer construction for wetter conditions, our kids' softshell and rain jacket range may be a better fit for those environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
Recycled PET (polyethylene terephthalate) is polyester fabric made from recycled plastic bottles and other post-consumer plastic waste rather than virgin petroleum-derived fibres. Both the shell and the insulation in the JUNEAU Kids are made entirely from certified recycled PET, which means no new plastic was manufactured to produce this jacket. The performance is equivalent to virgin polyester at the same weight.
The 80gsm recycled PET insulation provides reliable warmth for cool to cold conditions, typically effective in the 8 to 15 degree Celsius range depending on activity level. For moderate winter days, it works well as a standalone outer layer. In colder conditions or for less active wear, it is best used over a long-sleeve base layer or thermal top.
The JUNEAU Kids is available in sizes 4K, 6K, 8K, 10K, 12K, and 14K. As a general guide: 4K suits approximately age 4, 6K suits age 6, 8K suits age 8, 10K suits age 10, 12K suits age 12, and 14K suits age 14. Children vary significantly in build, so measuring chest and height is recommended for accurate sizing. Contact us if you need a size chart before placing a bulk order.
Yes. The JUNEAU Kids is ready for embroidery and heat transfer decoration. For school or club programmes, left chest logo placement is the standard approach for puffer jackets of this style. The shell fabric weight is sufficient to support embroidery without puckering at standard logo sizes.
Yes. The JUNEAU Kids is a practical school uniform layer for cooler months. The hooded design provides head and neck coverage for outdoor play and travel, the lightweight construction means it does not restrict movement, and the decoration-ready shell allows school logo application. The 2-colour option keeps it clean for uniform programmes. Check with your school's uniform policy regarding hooded outer layers before ordering.
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Tumble dry on low heat; drying on low is actually beneficial for puffer insulation as it helps redistribute the fill evenly. Do not dry clean and do not iron directly on the jacket shell. For best longevity, avoid high heat at all stages, which can degrade the recycled PET fibres and compress the insulation fill over time.
