In short

Where the number just works. At 62, 68, 74, 80, 86, 92 and more, Reima lines up with every brand we track — the size carries straight over.

Bottom line: for most sizes, a Reima number is a safe bet elsewhere — measure once, then double-check only the handful of “stranger” brands above.

Fit & the transitions that trip parents up

Reima-specific things the size number alone won’t tell you — drawn from its own charts.

Mixed by product — rainwear roomy, softshells narrow

The rain and shell sets run generous with grow-room for layering, while the trimmer softshell jackets run narrow — so it depends on the piece.

Sized by height in centimeters

A Finnish brand labelled by height in centimeters; measure your child's height and match the number.

What shoppers say about the fit

Community consensus

Shopper opinion · not Little & Youth’s measurement

This is what parents report anecdotally — crowd sentiment, not a Little & Youth determination. Our sizing above is computed from Reima’s own published chart; the notes here come from public parent discussion.

Reima is mixed — the rain and outerwear sets run roomy with grow-room, while the slim softshells run narrow. Reima sizes by height in centimeters. Parents find the rainwear and shell sets generous, often “a bit big, which is great” for layering and a longer season. The trimmer softshell jackets are the flip side — several call them narrow or snug and wish they’d sized up, and note the sizing grows more in length than width. Match the piece to your child’s build using the cm chart.

Based on anecdotal discussion from multiple publicly available online sources; your experience may differ.

Should you buy Reima?

Consider it if…

  • You want serious kids’ outdoor gear — Reima is built for rain, snow and cold.
  • You want room to layer and grow — the sets are cut with that in mind.
  • You want technical quality — waterproofing and durability aimed at real weather.

Think twice if…

  • You want everyday clothes — it’s outerwear and technical wear, not a wardrobe brand.
  • You’re on a budget — it’s premium-priced.
  • You have a broad child in the slim softshells — those run narrow; size to the measurements.

Skip the cross-referencing — let Little & Youth do it.

Enter your child’s measurements once. We’ll show their Reima size and their size at 100+ other brands, each from that brand’s own chart.

A few things parents ask that the chart won’t tell you

Does Reima run big or small?

It depends on the piece: the rainwear and outerwear sets run roomy with room to grow, while the slim softshell jackets run narrow and snug. Size the sets true (or down if you don’t need grow-room) and size the softshells to your child’s chest.

How does Reima's centimeter sizing work?

Reima sizes by your child’s height in centimeters (62–164 cm). Our comparison converts it from real height, and you can switch this page between inches and centimeters with the toggle above the table.

What measurements do I need to size Reima accurately?

Reima publishes height, chest, waist, hip, inseam in its size chart. Height is the primary driver, and the chest/waist figures let you confirm body fit for a child between sizes.

Where do I buy Reima?

Reima is sold on its own site and on Amazon, so you can pick the marketplace you prefer.
