Boys Duke Hardshell

$165.00 $275.00

  • WEATHERPROOF PERFORMANCE

    This feature packed, performance kids hardshell is designed to provide the maximum versatility to keep kids comfortable outdoors no matter the weather. The Duke hardshell is fully waterproof, fully seam-taped, and has rubberized wrist gaskets that prevent any snow or water from getting up their sleeves in wet conditions. For cold days on the mountain, kids can adjust their layers underneath the hardshell, or even zip-in the Malamute Insulator, connecting it to the hardshell and providing additional warmth. Leave the insulator at home and simply wear the highly breathable hardshell over a baselayer with the underarm vents open to dump heat on a warm spring day. The Duke hardshell provides higher performance levels to keep kids dry and comfortable, unmatched versatility, and more useful features than anything that has ever been available on the market.

WHY WE MADE IT

For parents and kids that want to stay out all day no matter the weather, the Duke is the most versatile high-performance boys ski & snowboard jacket on the market. Un-insulated, fully waterproof, and super breathable, it is perfect for spring days when other jackets are just too warm. And with our insulator zipped in (sold separately), it is the ultimate weatherproof boys ski jacket.

 

VERSATILITY THAT SAVES YOU MONEY

Insulated kids ski and snowboard jackets from other brands are often too warm for spring conditions. And with other brands you also have to buy a separate puffy or fleece jacket for everyday use. With our layering system, you get more versatility in just two layers. Use them separately or zip them together.

waterproof & breathable

50% higher performance than the industry average, a high waterproof / breathability rating is essential to keep kids dry.

FULLY SEAM TAPED

Every single seam is taped. No short cuts here. Many brands only "critically seam tape" to save money.

INSULATION COMPATIBLE

The Duke Hardshell is un-insulated to provide maximum layering versatility. The Malamute Insulator (sold separately) can be layered underneath or zipped in to the hardshell for additional warmth.

2-WAY SLEEVE LENGTH ADJUSTMENT

Rather than sleeves that only extend by ripping a seam and sacrifice waterproofness, our Adjust-A-Fit System allows sleeves to be shortened for a custom fit today, lengthened as kids grow, and then re-shortened for a hand-me-down later.

ZIPPERED UNDERARM VENTS

Shredding is hard work. Zippered underarm vents allow kids to easily dump heat and stay comfortable on the mountain.

A quick look at performance, premium features, and standard features across the industry. Eliminating the "middle man" retail markup allows us to create higher performing products, with more features, at a lower cost to you.

related items in the Layering System

The Duke Hardshell is designed for ultimate versatility in layering. In cold conditions, our Malamute Insulator zips into the shell. In warmer spring skiing conditions, simply pair it with a baselayer.

Best Jacket

Love this Jacket! It has so many features you don’t usually find in a child’s jacket including vents, snow skirt. Velcro wrists and all the pockets. We are a competitive winter sport family and have been through a lot of jackets. Finding a good quality without breaking the bank is always a challenge!

TOP Dog for my Little Shredder

This hard shell coat is so rad for my boys! It has all the components and options of high quality adult jackets... but made for kids! I have geared up my 10 year-old and 6 year-old in this hard shell, as well as Shred Dog bibs, puffy mid layer, base layer and neck gator... ALL of it is super sweet. We took the Shred Dog gear out recently on a spring powder day and all the moisture beaded up on by boy's coats, while they stayed warm due to the layers underneath. My 10 year-old put his gear through all the regular punishment a kid that age does, but I also told him to try and get wet through the gear... he rolled around in the snow even took a few harder falls along the way (unplanned), and he was still dry at the end of the day. I am stoked we got this gear and I know it will last as it all gets passed down to our younger boys! Thanks Shred Dog!

Size Guides

SHRED DOG size guides are based on body size not garment measurements.

Please note that all SHRED DOG products are designed to layer, therefore each product is cut and sized to accommodate the appropriate layers underneath it. 

Fit

If you want a "true to size" fit today with minimal room to grow, order the size that your kid falls into on the charts below.

If you want a "looser" fit with more room to grow, we recommend ordering 1 size up and using the Adjust-A-Fit System to shorten the sleeves or pant legs. As kids grow, the sleeves and pant legs can extend with them (only on Hardshells, Insulators, and Pants).

How To Measure

To get the best fitting products please take a few minutes to measure your kid following these simple steps.

For all measuring use a flexible tape. If you do not have a flexible measuring tape, you can you a piece of string etc. to take the initial measurement and then hold it up to a construction style measuring tape.

1) Chest - Measure horizontally around the fullest area of the chest (underneath the arms) with the arms down
2) Waist or Hip – use whichever measurement is bigger to select your final size
a) Waist - Measure horizontally around the narrowest part of the waist, (which is about 2 inches above the belly button)
b) Hip - With feet together measure around the fullest point of the hip,  keeping the tape measure horizontal
3) Sleeve Length - With arms in their natural position down by the side, start at point where the spine meets the base of your neck, measure out to the shoulder, then down to the wrist bone
4) Inseam Length - From crotch, along inside of the leg, to the floor.

 

*NOTE - All outerwear pieces (Hardshells, Insulators, and Pants) can have the sleeves and pant legs reduced up to 2" with our Adjust-A-Fit system. As kids grow, the sleeves and pant legs can grow with them.
