Product Description
Slushy sidewalks, wet snow, and muddy winter paths are all part of getting outside when the seasons start to overlap. The Reima Nefar Kids' Winter Boots combine a completely waterproof rubber galosh with a warm, water-repellent upper for everyday winter adventures when the ground is wet and kids still have plenty of exploring to do.
The lower galosh is made from durable thermoplastic rubber and is completely waterproof, helping protect little feet from slush and wet ground. Above the galosh, the warm wadded shaft is water-repellent rather than waterproof. An adjustable snowlock at the collar helps keep snow from finding its way inside.
A warm textile fur lining adds comfort for frosty days, and Reima has tested the footwear for insulation against cold down to -10°C / 14°F. The thermoplastic rubber outsole provides grip for winter walking, while the easy pull-on construction supports kids who are learning to get their outdoor gear on independently. Reflective detailing behind the heel adds a practical finishing touch for shorter winter days.
Why Parents Love It
Ready for slushy winter days: A completely waterproof thermoplastic-rubber galosh helps protect feet from wet snow, slush, and damp ground.
Warm for milder winter weather: A warm textile fur lining and wadded shaft provide cold-weather comfort, with insulation tested down to -10°C / 14°F.
Helps keep snow out: An adjustable snowlock at the collar adds practical coverage when kids are walking and playing in snow.
Supports independent dressing: The easy pull-on style makes the Nefar straightforward for little ones to slide on before heading outside.
Made for everyday winter routines: A grippy thermoplastic-rubber outsole and reflective heel detail add practical features for outdoor adventures.
Built for Real Outdoor Use
The Nefar is especially useful for those wonderfully messy winter days when snow, slush, and wet ground all show up at once. The waterproof lower galosh provides protection where boots meet puddles and slushy paths, while the warm upper and textile fur lining add comfort for chilly outdoor routines.
These are not fully waterproof boots from top to bottom. The upper portion is water-repellent, while the lower galosh is completely waterproof. That makes the Nefar a practical choice for slushy walks, wet playgrounds, outdoor school, and everyday winter exploring when families want warmth and lower-foot waterproofing in an easy pull-on design.
Things to Know
Waterproof galosh: The lower thermoplastic-rubber section is completely waterproof, while Reima gives the overall footwear a 1/4 waterproof rating.
Water-repellent upper: The warm upper portion is water-repellent rather than fully waterproof.
Mild-winter warmth: Reima rates insulation 1/4 and has tested the footwear for insulation against cold down to -10°C / 14°F according to ISO 20877:2011.
Adjustable snowlock: The collar includes a snowlock designed to help keep snow from entering the boot.
Easy pull-on design: The simple construction makes the boots easy for little ones to slide on themselves.
No PFAS used: Reima explicitly states that no PFAS are used.
PVC free: Reima explicitly identifies the Nefar as PVC free.

Frequently Asked Questions
re the Reima Nefar Winter Boots completely waterproof?
The part of the boot that encounters the most water is. The rubber galosh surrounding the foot is completely waterproof, helping keep feet protected through slush, melting snow, shallow puddles, and wet playgrounds. The warm fabric shaft above the galosh is water-repellent rather than fully waterproof. We really like this combination for messy winter weather because kids get waterproof protection around their feet without giving up the warmth and comfort of a winter boot.
How warm are the Reima Nefar Winter Boots?
Reima has tested the Nefar for insulation against cold down to 14°F (-10°C). A warm textile-fur lining and wadded shaft add warmth without turning this into a heavy deep-winter boot. We especially like the Nefar for milder winter days and temperatures around freezing, when melting snow and slush can make keeping feet dry just as important as keeping them warm.
Why would I choose the Nefar instead of a regular snow boot or rain boot?
This is where the Nefar really earns its place in the winter gear rotation. A rain boot gives you waterproof protection but may not provide enough warmth for winter, while a traditional snow boot isn't always designed around the amount of slush and standing water kids encounter during freeze-thaw weather. The Nefar combines a completely waterproof lower galosh with a warm winter upper and lining. If your winters include as much slush as snow, this is exactly the kind of boot we like having by the door.
Are the Nefar boots good for slush, puddles, and melting snow?
Yes—slushy conditions are one of the reasons we'd choose the Nefar. The waterproof rubber galosh protects the foot when kids are walking through wet snow, shallow puddles, muddy paths, and melting playgrounds. For serious puddle jumping where water reaches high up the boot, we'd switch to a fully waterproof rain boot. But for the everyday mix of snow, slush, mud, and water that winter brings, the Nefar is a really practical solution.
re the Reima Nefar boots easy for kids to put on themselves?
Yes, and this can be a bigger benefit than it sounds. The easy pull-on construction eliminates laces and complicated closures, while the adjustable snowlock at the top helps keep snow from getting inside once they're on. For Outdoor School, preschool, and busy mornings at home, we love winter gear that kids can learn to manage independently—and the Nefar is designed with that everyday reality in mind.
Our Story
FOUNDED BY WOMEN. BUILT FOR ADVENTURE.
ODSS was started by mothers who saw firsthand how time outside builds resilient, confident kids. What began as helping outdoor schools equip students for all-weather learning grew into a bigger mission: Help families raise resilient, confident kids by making it easier for children to stay outside longer.
For us, the right gear from ODSS supports what we believe most about childhood. When children are able to be outside every day, in all seasons, they become tenacious, confident, and develop an authentic relationship with the land.

Working with Outdoor School Shop has transformed our outdoor school community. Parents love knowing their children are consistently and reliably equipped—and that nothing is forgotten or comes home covered in mud.

Our students get outside in all temperatures and having the right gear makes a world of difference. @outdoorschoolshop has gear appropriate for all seasons, has a directory to search for nature schools, and layering guides to help families know how to dress children for the weather

Ordering bulk with Outdoor School Shop was just as easy and seamless as I had hoped! As we open up a new program, preparing our first group of kiddos for any weather was at the top of our priority list, and ODSS came through with insight, expertise, and the coolest, most dependable gear around! Thank you ODSS!
