I have been eye balling these for my son, as i have seen these on a few kids.

Local, try a hunting shop they might have or might be able to get something to ya... Also check out building 19.

Arkansas duck hunter is the only place I found with waders to fit my 5 yr old, he is 7 now and still wearing them. They are one heck of a well made pair of waders.

John,

Yeah take the chance of mailorder....many hunting waders are made heavy duty...more so then fishing waders in general.

Good health and family

I didn't get the boys waders till they were 10. I let them wear rainpants with boots when we went surf casting. It kept them warm and it doubled as good boat gear as well. I really don't want them wading in the surf. Once they got a little older and could swim a little better we got them some neo's. They mainly still fish well up on the beach and only really go deep when they walk around looking for scallops. I found most shops don't carry much "youth" size gear, it has to be ordered so I would do it direct.

John, you need to have a couple more kids so you can pass down this gear and get the full value of it
