Girls' Sports Jackets
A girls' sports jacket is the layer for PE lessons, football practice, the walk to school and cold touchline mornings. MINOTI makes them for every age from newborn to 15, and younger girls wear the same kind of jacket for nursery runs and the playground. Pull one over a T-shirt or school polo, then take it off once she warms up.
Sports jacket, zip-up jacket and zip-through top are names for much the same layer, so check the product page for the exact style. For a girls' zip-up jacket that fits over a jumper, go up one: a 10-year-old usually takes 146 cm, so try 152 cm. Fabric and care differ by style, so read the care label before washing. For a narrower age range, see the baby, kids and teen Sport Jackets pages.
Your questions answered
MINOTI sells girls' sports jackets for PE, football, school runs and the park for girls aged 0 to 15, in centimetre sizes based on height, where a 10-year-old usually takes 146 cm.
How can I tell if a girls' sports jacket is waterproof?
Look at the product page: a jacket is only waterproof if it says so there. If you want a girls' sports rain jacket for wet matches, go up one so it fits over a jumper, for example 134 cm for a 7-year-old.
What size sports jacket should I buy for a 12-year-old girl?
A 12-year-old usually takes 158 cm. If she wears a hoodie or a girls' zip-up fleece jacket underneath, go up one to 164 cm so there is room across the shoulders and arms.
