These layers are key to camp comfort. Molehill's top and bottom are made with a stretchy, wicking polyester/Spandex blend; hollow-core yarns trap body heat; and sturdy YKK zippers and high-quality stitching deliver hand-me-down durability. The brushed interior boosts the cozy factor, and the smooth outer surface makes for easy layering.
Parents praised the three-season versatility, and after two rough-terrain trips, our kid team failed to put a snag in them. Available in 2T to 14. Top: $35-$45, 9 oz.; Pants: $25, 6 oz.; molehillmtn.com.

Duofold's stretchy poly Varitherm 4 comes in a simple crewneck and bottoms–each only $16–for kids ages 4 and up. duofold.com.
