Lightweight Jacket for Boys

It’s too hot outside for your winter jacket, but also a bit too chilly to wear your summer jacket. Time for a lightweight between-seasons jacket. Among our lightweight jackets for boys, you are guaranteed to find a jacket that will offer you the exact amount of comfort and warmth you need. So which lightweight jackets do we offer and when do you wear them?

Has the Time Come for a Lightweight Jacket?

The exact time during which it is recommended to wear a lightweight between-seasons jacket will vary from boy to boy. Some boys like to wear shorts and a T-shirt year-round, while others won’t put away their winter jacket until warm summer weather has arrived. Generally, lightweight jackets are worn during the autumn and the spring, when it is too cold for a summer jacket, but not cold enough to start wearing your winter jacket yet.

Between-seasons jackets can also be the perfect choice for specific weather conditions. For example: when it isn’t cold, but it is rainy, a summer jacket or hoodie might not offer sufficient protection from the elements. When it’s very windy, a windproof lightweight jacket might also be exactly what you need. No matter the circumstances, it’s always good to have a lightweight boys’ jacket at hand.

Lightweight Padded Boys' Jackets for Between Seasons

Padded Summer Jackets for Boys

You can find our lightweight boys’ jackets among our summer jackets and winter jackets for boys . Summer jackets made out of relatively thick fabrics in particular are popular to wear as between-seasons jackets. Since winter jackets are most often made for cold weather, they tend to be too warm to wear as lightweight jackets for between seasons. A short winter jacket could work as a between-seasons jacket, however, if you are someone who gets cold relatively quickly.

Our most popular lightweight between-seasons jackets are our Padded Jackets. These are boys’ summer jackets , but they are made out of fabrics that aren’t quite as thin as the other jackets from our summer collection for boys . Instead, they are lined. The presence of a lining makes these jackets warmer than our other summer jackets, but this design also creates a cool silhouette. We offer hooded padded boys’ summer jackets, but also padded jackets without a hood.

Protection Against All Weather Conditions

All Airforce jackets are windproof and water-repellent. This means that even a thin, lightweight summer jacket will offer the protection you need when the weather suddenly changes. Do you have to deal with cold wind or has it been drizzling all day? In that case, a slightly thicker jacket might be the better option.

A lightweight boys’ jacket for between seasons is made out of slightly thicker fabrics and therefore offers just a little bit more protection against cold wind or a prolonged drizzle than a regular summer jacket. Are you expecting that you have to walk or cycle through a rain shower?
