The Spyder Boy's Leader Jacket serves up style, comfort and full weather protection in generous and equal quantities. It's a durable, fully waterproof and breathable ski jacket with significantly more insulation than the adult Leader Jacket (because kids have smaller body cores). If your kid wears a ski helmet on the slopes, save the removable (and fully adjustable) embroidered hood for school days. The Boy's Leader Jacket is loaded with plenty of features typically found on Spyder's adult ski jackets, including an internal goggle pocket and even a place to stow the detachable hood when the sun is out. Spyder treated the durable nylon dobby outer fabric with a special coating that penetrates the fabric and allows vapor to escape while keeping exterior water droplets outside the jacket. A Spylon water repellent finish also helps keep the droplets from consolidating and saturating the pores. If you're looking for extraordinary features that are a step ahead of ordinary kid-sized outerwear, the Spyder Boy's Leader Jacket remains way out in front of most ski clothing.
If you're going to lead, you might as well lead with the Leader in the snow industry.

Spyder has created this Leader Jacket for the boy who is not afraid of anything in front of him while on the mountain. This jacket has the Nylon Dobby fabric that is very durable and is heavy duty. Just what a boy needs while he is shredding and mastering his skills while in the park. The XT coating is Spyders own, this coating penetrates the fabric in a way that a honeycomb structure is formed. The pores of this structure are too small for water droplets to penetrate, making it waterproof, but large enough to allow interior moisture vapor to pass through, this makes this jacket highly breathable. The other features that this jacket offers is the removable heavy weather hood, the ThermaWeb insulation that is an ultra-warm, high-loft synthetic insulation that contains ultra-fine polyester fibers that traps and holds your body heat in any weather condition. To better protect you on your hard core boarding or skiing is the internal powder skirt that has the Spyder Logo with jacquard gripper elastic to keep out any unwanted snow from reaching your core. This Leader Jacket is a Best Selling jacket that has great lines and features for the boy who wants to be seen while on the mountain.

| Great Jacket! Having purchased this jacket for my eight year old grandson as a combination Christmas/birthday gift, I admit I was skeptical of spending this much money on a child's jacket. However, it's extremely well made, and should keep him warm and dry in blustery Chicago. Plus, he was just thrilled with it. I have to agree it's a very sharp looking “cool " jacket. I am not a believer that kids should have everything they want, but in this case it worked out just fine. Expensive, but worth the money. Mom should be able to resell it at good value when he has outgrown it. As usual, Zappos came through with extraordinary service. I was so happy to find just what I needed in the right size. The jacket was here in less than 24 hours. Plenty early for the Birthday boy's visit. Thanks yet again, Zappos! | |

| Even though we are entering Spring season, my son just had to wear it to school one chilly morning since he couldn't wait. He loves it and can't wait to ski in it. | |

| This is a great jacket with lots of detail. I used the sizing chart and from that the jacket should have been big on my son, but it just fit. Definitely size up. | |
