Floatation Suits for Children

[Arnaldo de Sousa]

Looking to take the little guy out this winter for some ice fishing. Anyone know what manufactures make floatation suits for children. My little guy is 6 years old.

 

 

Thanks in advance.

Not sure they make them that small. What I did was, had the boys in thier snow suits and put a PFD on them.

You must realize that you will be buying float suits every other year. I know Helly Hansen made suits for all ages. I saw them displayed at a trade show. I don't know if they are available in those sizes in Canada.

I know mustang does not.

I just purchased a child's floater jacket from Ebay. It is made by mustang. Not sure if they make the whole suit, but I figured He could where his snow pants with them. This way he feels like one of the guys in his bright orange jacket, like everyone else. It's a Christmas present so shhhh.

My youngest wears a floater ( mans small) that was tailored to suit another youth ( he is small for his age) ,bought it used 3 years ago.

it might be tough trying to tailor down a full size suit to age 6 size though.
