Stoney Creek Kids Microplus Top
Stoney Creek Kids Microplus Top
- Material: Microplus fleece
Getting kids outdoors and keeping them comfortable while you're at it starts with the right base and mid layers. The Stoney Creek Kids Microplus Top is built from Microplus fleece, a premium microfibre fabric engineered to deliver serious warmth without the bulk that makes traditional fleece so frustrating to layer under a jacket. Stoney Creek is a well-regarded New Zealand brand with a strong following among Australian hunters and outdoors families, and this top reflects exactly why. Whether your youngster is tagging along on a cool-morning hunt, helping with farm work, or just spending time outside, this is a piece that earns its place in the pack.
Stoney Creek Kids Microplus Top Key Features
- Microplus Fleece Construction: Made from a high-grade microfibre fleece that delivers a high warmth-to-weight ratio without the bulk of conventional fleece. This makes it easier to layer under an outer shell or jacket without restricting movement.
- Moisture Wicking: The Microplus fabric actively draws moisture away from the skin, keeping kids dry during active use. Fast-drying properties mean the top recovers quickly if conditions turn wet.
- Retains Less Than 1% of Its Weight in Water: The microfibre construction holds virtually no water, which means warmth is maintained even when damp, an important quality for unpredictable Australian outdoor conditions.
- Anti-Pill Finish: The fabric is treated with an anti-pill finish that keeps the top looking presentable after repeated washing and heavy use, rather than matting and bobbling like cheaper fleece options.
- Lightweight and Packable: Designed to be compact and light, making it easy to stash in a pack when not needed and pull out quickly when temperatures drop.
- Hardwearing Durability: Constructed for active kids, the fabric holds up to the kind of movement, scrubbing, and washing that comes with outdoor adventures and everyday wear.
- Versatile Layering Piece: Works well as a standalone mid-layer in mild conditions or as an insulation layer beneath a waterproof or windproof outer shell in colder weather.
For families who spend time outdoors, having a reliable mid-layer that a kid will actually want to wear makes a genuine difference. The Stoney Creek Kids Microplus Top keeps things simple, warm, and practical, covering the bases whether you're heading bush or just dealing with a cold school morning.
What fabric is the Stoney Creek Kids Microplus Top made from?
The top is made from Microplus fleece, a microfibre material that holds less than 1% of its weight in water. This gives it a high warmth-to-weight ratio without the bulk of traditional fleece, making it practical for active kids in cooler conditions. The fabric also features an anti-pill finish, so it keeps looking good after repeated washing.
Is this top suitable as a layering piece under a jacket?
Yes, the Stoney Creek Kids Microplus Top is designed to work as an insulation mid-layer under jackets. Its lightweight, compact construction means it won't add bulk under outerwear, while still keeping kids warm. Because it stays warm even when damp, it's a reliable layering option for outdoor adventures in variable weather.
How well does this top handle moisture and wet conditions?
The Microplus fleece is engineered to wick moisture away quickly and dry fast, helping kids stay dry and comfortable during active use. Importantly, the microfibre construction retains less than 1% of its weight in water, so it maintains its warmth even when damp — a practical advantage in unpredictable outdoor conditions.
How durable is this top for regular outdoor and everyday use?
The Stoney Creek Kids Microplus Top is built with hardwearing fabric designed to handle active outdoor adventures and everyday play. The anti-pill finish helps maintain its appearance through repeated washing cycles, making it a practical long-term option for kids who are consistently hard on their clothing.

Stoney Creek Kids Microtough Trousers
$69.99

Constructed from a polyester micro yarn with a flat-woven interior using Stoney Creek's special weaving technique, these trousers deliver a refined fit and all-day comfort without sacrificing toughness. The outer surface is treated with a Teflon™ DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating that actively sheds water, dirt, and stains, and unlike standard DWR treatments, the Teflon™ formula is designed to maintain its performance wash after wash. Whether it's a morning in the paddock, a pest control run with the family, or a multi-day camp, these trousers are built to handle it all.
Stoney Creek Kids Microtough Trousers Key Features
- Polyester Micro Yarn Construction: The fabric is woven using a fine polyester micro yarn with a flat-woven interior finish, giving the trousers a lightweight feel while delivering genuine durability in rough terrain.
- Teflon™ DWR Coating: The Teflon™ Durable Water Repellent treatment repels water, mud, and stains at the surface level and is engineered to remain effective through repeated washing, maintaining protection over the life of the garment.
- Hook Grass and Burr Resistance: The micro yarn outer surface sheds hook grass and burrs rather than collecting them, a practical advantage when moving through scrub, pasture, or dense undergrowth.
- In-Seam Gusset: A gusset built into the crotch seam allows unrestricted movement, keeping up with active kids whether they're climbing, crouching, or covering ground.
- Long Leg Vents: Ventilation zips run along the leg to allow airflow and temperature regulation during warmer conditions or periods of high activity.
- Elastic Waist with Drawcord: An elasticated waistband combined with a drawcord allows a secure and adjustable fit across varying body shapes and sizes.
- Pull-Forward Adjustment: A pull-forward fit system gives a more precise, dialled-in waist adjustment beyond what elastic alone provides, ensuring the trousers stay in place during active use.
- Large Secure Hand Pockets and Side Pockets: Multiple pockets provide practical storage for small essentials while remaining secure during movement through the field.
- Quick-Drying Fabric: The polyester micro yarn construction dries rapidly after rain or stream crossings, helping kids stay comfortable without carrying unnecessary weight in wet fabric.
- Elasticated Hem (Sizes 2-4): Younger sizes feature an elasticated hem to keep the trouser leg in place and prevent debris from entering the boot line.
- Button Closure: A traditional button closure at the waist complements the elastic waistband for a tidy and secure finish.
The Stoney Creek Kids Microtough Trousers are a practical, well-thought-out piece of field kit for kids who spend real time outdoors.
