Spence - Sometimes you can go with women's waders - smaller petite sizes.

I think LL Bean was where I purchased a pair for my wife.

Might need to call customer service to find out boot sizing.

there R new rules in some states that do not allow felt sole waders or boots....was at kittery trading post the other day, they have stopped selling felt soled boots and waders...U can buy the felt kit and apply them to bottom of rubber soled boots...I believe NY has banned felts....U would think in this day and age that they could make a non skid rubber boot sole to take the place of felts...

Check out Cabela's, they have a few different breathables, and I believe some were on sale the other day. Bass Pro sells kids waders too.

Yes, I did think of that. He's not small either...might look at an adult small? And hence not wanting to spend much money...just don't want them to leak first trip.

I have a pair of stocking foot neoprene waders that were my sons but he wanted boot foot so these were never used much. He is on the big side too, these might work for the boy. I paid $75 for them...your for $50.

Spence,
When my son was that age he used my wifes waders and they were perfect. Women's waders are cut smaller.

Cabelas kids waders are about $50 and their brand name carries a lifetime warranty.
