If you’ve been following us for a while, you know that we’re pretty picky about the gear we bring into the van. First, we don’t have a lot of space since we live in an 86-square-foot home on wheels. And secondly, we need apparel that’s going to stand the test of time… because we’re literally wearing it on the daily.
We recently had the opportunity to try out some new outdoor gear from Arctix! We’re always excited to put some gear to the test, especially for the kids. If a product can withstand the wear and tear of two rambunctious, wild little boys, then the brand is a winner in our book. Their kids’ rain jackets are 100% nylon, super lightweight and water and wind repellent. The jackets have secured zipper pockets – perfect for rock collecting –adjustable cuffs and hood closure, and a back vent for added breathability. As a mama of two active boys, this is a major plus. (If you’ve raised active and stinky boys, you KNOW the struggle is real.) The jackets are also machine washable – perfect for a quick and easy cleaning after outdoor activities – especially if your kiddos are like ours! We also love that we can fold the jackets nice and tight into the pocket — which is KEY for tiny living in our van!
What’s also awesome is that Arctix is not only high quality gear, but easy on the wallet compared to other outdoor brands. You can find this jacket on Amazon for $39.99. (Seriously — how amazing is that?!) Click here to get yours — we’ve also included the Fleece Jacket and Women’s Rain Jacket that we were gifted as well! ?
For us, these rain jackets check allllll the boxes. You know you’ve found a good thing when the boys are begging to wear their cool new rain jackets. Thank you Arctix for giving us a chance to put your new Spring gear to the test!
