Description

An outdoor classic for wet days. Redesigned based on member feedback, the updated Newt Suit returns to the durable, tried-and-true fabric of previous years. Taped seams and waterproof fabric stand up to wet playgrounds and rainy hikes, so kids stay dry and comfortable no matter where their explorations take them. Long zippers make for easier outfit changes when it's finally time to head inside.

Made from the robust nylon of the previous versions, with a waterproof polyurethane coating.
DWR finish for maximum water and mud shedding.
Seams are fully taped throughout, so water can't work in through the seams.
Provides full coverage without gaps and places to become untucked.
2 water-resistant Uretek-coated front zips open to the waist, making it relatively easy to get on and off.
Hood has a brim and elasticized sides to keep water drops away from the child's head and face.
All cuffs are elasticized for a snug, comfortable fit.
Reflective trim for heightened visibility.

Relaxed fit

Fit guide

Technical garments, designed for specific activities have features that aren’t always adaptable to general use. For example, cycling clothing is longer in the back and arms. Activity aside, the fit of MEC clothing falls into these categories:

Tight, with no room to spare.

Very close fit, with a bit of room.

Generous, but not oversized.

Oversized with lots of room for layers.

All MEC men’s and boy’s pants are regular rise.

Type	Waterproof
Technology	PU Coating
Construction	Unlined
Face fabric	200-denier nylon
Fabric waterproof rating The standard test for waterproof fabrics uses a standing column filled with water. The figures given are the water column height. A rating of 3,500mm or higher can be considered waterproof. The higher the rating, the more durable the waterproof fabric will be over time.	10,000mm
Waterproofness Waterproof garments use waterproof-breathable technologies and are fully seam-taped. Water-resistant garments use waterproof-breathable technologies but their seams are not taped. Water-resistant garments repel water and protect against wind but are not made of waterproof fabric.	Waterproof with fully taped seams
Fabric active breathability The rate at which a waterproof breathable fabric expels moisture when the inner surface is moist from perspiration. Values under 8,000g/m2/24h provide low performance, 20,000g/m2/24h provide moderate performance and values over 30,000g/m2/24h provide high performance.	5000g/m2/24h
Pockets	None
Windproofness A windproof garment does not allow any air to permeate the fabric. A garment with windproof panels has panels of fabric that are totally windproof, but the rest of the garment may not be windproof. A wind-resistant garment resists some wind, but not as much as a garment that is windproof.	Windproof
Durable water repellency Usually referred to as DWR. A treatment made to fabrics that causes water to bead and run off instead of soaking through.	Yes
Hood	Fitted
Additional feature(s)	Reflective details
Product sustainability	Bluesign^® Approved Material
