Farewell to Reima
Reima was founded in 1944 in Kankaanpää Finland. Reima is the Nordic region’s leading manufacturer of children’s clothes. They have been a personal favorite at Montkid.com for several years. Reima's development of it's Reimatec™ product family was a breakthrough for babies, toddler and children's outerwear that protects in all weather conditions.
All Reima garments are made of waterproof, windproof and breathable Reimatec™ material. Reimatec™ shoes – with the same qualities – protect feet against the wet and cold.
Some of our favorites and best sellers have been the Fivel one piece snowsuit for infants. The Liro one piece snowsuit for toddlers and the Reima Footwear such as the Frozen Flower and Panda. The single item that is always on our list of winter essentials, however, is the Reima Balaclava. Made from a super soft wool, the balaclavas protect those super soft, super kissable cheeks!
Sadly, Reima will no longer be distributing to the US market. Montkid.com bought up the remainder of inventory available for the season, but it won't last long. And once it's gone, it really, truly is gone.
So, we find ourselves on the hunt for a replacement brand. Something that is of equal quality and style. If anyone has any suggestions, let us know!
