When I posted a feature on Wheat Canada’s outerwear last winter, my kids had only spent a few weeks in their snowsuits. Truth be told, I normally like to test things for at least four to six weeks (and often much longer) before writing about them to put them in as many real situations as we’d normally face.
They were each washed at least six or eight times, and they should have required knee patches halfway through the season the way my kids played in them. But barring one missing “pull tab” on The K Man’s ski jacket, those snowsuits held up so well that they could easily be used again this year — if they fit my kids, that is. Alas, they grew like the proverbial weeds as children are wont to do and while they can still get into last year’s suits, they just fit. As in, 12 minutes from now, they probably won’t.
So up a size we went (Miss Q into a size 6 and The K Man into a size 10). I kept K in the same style and colour — why fix what ain’t broke and all that — and opted for a two-piece for Q this time around. She’s mastered zippers this year, and it’s nice to have the option to wear just the jacket if need be. However, for a kid who went to school at age three that one-piece option we had was a life-saver and probably saved the teacher’s sanity, too.
And just like every winter for the past three years, my kids are both going to brave the Great White North and all her snow and frigid temps wearing STONZ Winter Bootz — one of the very small handful of products that have earned a coveted 5/5 rating on this here website. They’re warmer, dryer and weigh far less than any other kids’ boots on the market that we’ve tried (which include Kamik, Sorel, BOGS, UGG and others).
That last part — their weight — is especially important for little legs, which tire easily; STONZ Bootz weigh a fraction of any other waterproof winter boot. They’re easily on par with UGG, and we all know how well UGGs hold up under wet snow! (As the proud and satisfied owner of four pairs of UGGs, I speak from years of experience; I’ve learned to throw on a pair of Sorels when I’m building snowmen or making snow-angels.)
Even on the coldest days of winter last year (and we had some pretty cold ones), we were able to spend lots of time playing outdoors thanks to the butt-kicking dream-team duo of Wheat Canada and STONZ. The Bootz can handle up to minus-50; the Mittz are incredible and come right up over your kids’ sleeves and have two elastic pullies to keep cold, wind and wet out; and the snowsuits, while they don’t note a “chill rating,” were comfortable on days last year reaching deep into the minus-20s. I suspect they could even perform well in a Manitoba winter where the kids aren’t even allowed to stay in for recess unless it’s like minus-35!
All this to say that if you aren’t yet organized for winter, now’s the time. It’s coming. And you don’t want to see “SOLD OUT” icons on the gear you want the most. I truly wouldn’t steer you wrong — Wheat and STONZ have got your kid covered as the cold rolls in. So get shopping.

A snowsuit that you can get more than one year out of has my attention. Each year there is either missing knees or zippers that are broken or a strap that needs replaced. Honestly, I am sick of replacing 4 snowsuits each year. Don’t get me started on gloves and wet feet inside boots. I need an affordable (I have lots of kids) options, that last!
Thanks to you, I may have found just what I was looking for. Seriously, how cute our your kids!

Shannon ballard says
As a ski family I have been looking for a new suit for my son that will hold up in all conditions -30, sleet and sometimes even rain… We aren’t weather wimps!! I haven’t heard of this brand and didn’t know Stonz made boots for older kids (both of my kids had them when they were young!)
Thanks for the review!! I agree with the sorely review – way to hard to get on the kids at the bottom of a ski hill….
Mommy Gearest says
I’ve met so many parents who have no clue that STONZ goes beyond the toddler booties. I can’t stress enough how much I love them. We’re becoming a ski family this year so it will be interesting to see if we need to add layers to the Wheat snowsuits or not. We didn’t have to just for normal play last year. Oh, and you have to check out the day-to-day clothes from Wheat…they’re OMG-worthy.
Shannon Ballard says
I am actually just on the STONZ site as the mitts look awesome. I like how high they come up. Can the kids still hold stuff? Addison struggled last year to find mitts/ gloves that were warm enough but that she could hold the ski poles.
Mommy Gearest says
Admittedly, we have never skied. BUT we have done plenty of tobogganing, shovelling (with kid shovels), snowball-fighting, etc. and no one has complained that they can’t hold onto stuff. And having them come up OVER the sleeve means you’re not fighting to get them UNDER the sleeve. LOL!

I’ve met so many parents who have no clue that STONZ goes beyond the toddler booties. I can’t stress enough how much I love them. We’re becoming a ski family this year so it will be interesting to see if we need to add layers to the Wheat snowsuits or not. We didn’t have to just for normal play last year. Oh, and you have to check out the day-to-day clothes from Wheat…they’re OMG-worthy.
Shannon Ballard says
I am actually just on the STONZ site as the mitts look awesome. I like how high they come up. Can the kids still hold stuff? Addison struggled last year to find mitts/ gloves that were warm enough but that she could hold the ski poles.
Mommy Gearest says
Admittedly, we have never skied. BUT we have done plenty of tobogganing, shovelling (with kid shovels), snowball-fighting, etc. and no one has complained that they can’t hold onto stuff. And having them come up OVER the sleeve means you’re not fighting to get them UNDER the sleeve. LOL!

Need those mitts! I’m guessing the odds of losing one are slim when the mitts go right up to the kid’s elbow!
Mommy Gearest says
Ha! Unless you’re my kid who can lose anything. But, yeah – they’re harder to miss.

Great review! My son wears Stonz boots and they are awesome. I have yet to try Wheat Canada clothing yet, but I’ve checked out their site and love the design/style of their clothes.

I have been on the hunt for good winter wear for my kids. Boots are especially a challenge- we’ve had several fails the last few years! Now that we have snow on the ground, this is really starting to get pressing! 😉
Mommy Gearest says
Seriously. Three years now and we have not had a single leak, break, rip, nothing. These boots last and last.

Thanks for the great review, as usual! I especially enjoyed the review of the Stonz boots as I feel my 3 year old’s little legs will not do well with the heavy Sorels that my 5 year old dragged around last year. Stonz boots sound perfect!
Mommy Gearest says
I love Sorels for me, but they’re just so darn heavy for kids. The STONZ are unbelievably light.
