Junior Fleece Gilet

Sporting Saint Junior Gilet

The Sporting Saint Junior Gilet is a lightweight, practical outer layer designed specifically for young handlers, trainers and outdoor enthusiasts who are active in gundog training, countryside walks or field sessions. Scaled to junior proportions, this gilet offers core warmth and comfort without restricting movement, making it ideal for children participating in training, casual outdoor activities and family days in the field.

Perfect as a standalone layer or over a hoodie or long-sleeve top, the Junior Gilet gives youngsters the freedom to stay warm while moving, training or handling dogs. Its sleeveless design and classic cut mean it’s versatile enough for everyday wear as well as training days outdoors.

Sizing & Fit

The Junior Gilet is available in sizes designed to fit younger age ranges, with typical sizes including:

• Small: approximately 6–7 years
• Medium: approximately 8–9 years
• Large: approximately 10–11 years
• X-Large: approximately 12–13 years

The cut is designed to allow room for layering underneath while still providing warmth and comfort during activity.

Why Use a Junior Gilet

A gilet at this age range gives children a core insulated layer that keeps them warm on early morning training, cool evenings or breezy outdoor days without the weight or restriction of a full jacket. It’s ideal where freedom of movement matters — whether they’re walking, training, tossing dummies or just enjoying time outdoors with family and dogs.

Junior gilets also help instil confidence and ownership in youngsters by giving them dedicated gear that’s scaled to their size and needs, rather than borrowing adult layers.
