Children's light summer pants with an insect-repelling technology.
The Punkiton trousers use an insect-repellent treatment based on geraniol, a substance extracted from plants. It helps protect the wearer from insect bites and tick stings.
In terms of appearance, Punkiton trousers fit just as well into everyday wear as they do on family outings or scout group trips. They’re a great choice from spring through autumn!
- Lightweight, breathable fabric offers some wind protection

Punkiton is Finnish for “tick-free”.
6 cm growth allowance: All Reima products are designed to grow with your child. Choose the size based on your child’s height, and the product will likely fit throughout the entire season.
The insect-repellent agent is derived from lemongrass. It can withstand over 50 washes. The extract has a very mild, pleasantly lemony scent that many insects, such as ticks and mosquitoes, find intolerable. Remember to protect any exposed skin with insect repellent—BugProof clothing only protects the skin covered by the garment.
Ticks always crawl upward, so you can make it harder for them to reach your skin by wearing the cuffs of insect-repellent socks over your trouser legs and tucking your shirt into your trousers. Still, always remember to check your child’s skin at the end of the day.
