Bundle Up, Buttercup: Kids Gorpcore 101
Après ski, but make it adorable.

Gen Z moms Hailey Bieber and Kylie Jenner made “Good Ol’ Raisins and Peanuts,” aka Gorpcore fashion, a thing back in 2023, but the outdoors-meets-high-fashion aesthetic is still very much in its cozy era. And honestly? It makes sense.

Gorpcore isn’t just cute — it’s functional. Think puffers, cargos and all the layers so your little explorers are ready for whatever the mountain throws their way. Your kids get the high-performance gear they need to tackle the trails (or at least the bunny slope), and you get peace of mind knowing they’re bundled up in quality, sustainable brands like Cotopaxi and Patagonia. Plus, you won’t hear a single complaint après ski because they’ll be toasty in their oversized fleece while roasting marshmallows by the bonfire.

To make packing easy, we rounded up some Gorpcore essentials because staying warm and looking cool? That’s just good parenting.
