Puddlegear by Abeko Butterfly Rain Set

Puddlegear by Abeko Butterfly Rain Set
Do you secretly love rainy days? Do you enjoy splashing through puddles and watching your little one do the same? Puddlegear by Abeko is a whole line of raingear that allows kids to really get out an enjoy the wet weather. Their products are all 100% waterproof and machine washable, just in case some of the puddles your child finds are mud puddles. Abeko’s products are made in Europe, free of PVC and Phthalate, and oko-tex certified.

The company’s Butterfly Rain Set offers great coverage for even the rainiest days. It features bibbed rain pants and a matching jacket (think ski-wear, but for rain rather than snow). Both are pink with a butterfly design. Little girls are sure to love both the look and feel of this outfit. They will also be delighted at the chance to play in the rain.

This set is definitely a bit of an investment. At $125, it is considerably more than many of us are used to paying for raingear. At the same time, the high quality, chemical free construction make it worth the price. You can purchase this set and view the company’s many offerings for both boys and girls at puddlegear.com.

Good Things to know about Puddlegear

All the Abeko rain gear mentioned in this catalogue is made of Atek. (as described below) most pieces of the gear are also ÖKO-tex a European standard in ecology coming to North America. (also described below) Puddlegear is PVC free - many Environmental groups concerned about chemicals in our world refer to PVC as poisonous plastic…many kids rain suits are made of this dangerous plastic. It poisons our world from the manufacturing practice until well... who knows because it's not biodegradable... Scientist believe that it never stops off gassing. Without organs to filter these toxins out of your child's blood these poisons go straight through your child's skin to collect in the body. This is referred to as "toxic load". Lets not talk about what Puddlegear is not... lets talk about what Puddlegear is! Environmentally friendly and kid safe rain gear for tough customers!

Our PVC Free Fabric - and its certification

ATEC

Is a Polyurethane-coated stretch fabric. It's a very light, soft, tear-resistant material that allows a full range of motion. Wind and watertight. Tolerates normal temperature changes and is easy to wash. Kids can move normally and not feel stiff in Atek.

What is öko-tex?

Öko-Tex (sounds like echo-tex) is a process that tests for over 100 harmful substances! To give you the more official description, Öko-Tex Standard 100 is an ecological certification process. The testing is scrupulous and applies to every element on the gear. Simply said öko-tex guarantees fewer chemicals around your children. For more info please Click Here.
