My son is 3 years old and weighs 38 pounds. Should I get size 6?

I would guess a size 3 would work well but buying a 3 and/or 4 and trying it is the best way to find out, and return the one you don't take of keep them both if the 3 fits and you have the 4 for when he grows into it. Otherwise return both, but the other answers are correct to look at the O'Neill site and make sure the height is right. If it is too loose it will let cold water in and circulate, if it is too tight it will be very painful and useless. It is a great wetsuit for the toddlers, best I ever saw. BD

My daughter is 4 and weights 35 pounds and is 38 inches tall and size 3 fits great!

Hi Jennifer, rather than basing it on my child's weight, I looked at the O'neill site and actually measured my child based on their sizing of chest, waist, etc. I found that she was in between two sizes based on these measurements so I got the larger so she could grow into it. And it happened to not correlate with her weight. The suit is thick and has a decent stretch to it, but the only thing to make sure when measuring is also the height (more so than weight), so that the suit does not tug in the crotch area or end up hurting once it's fully zipped. I hope this helps!

My grandson is 2 years and two months and weighs in that range and a one is a bit big on him. Some people say to buy two or three and then return those that do not fit, but I would think a size one or two would do. I am not an expert, you could also try calling O'Neill's surf shop to ask them, but I bought a two first and it was too big, so then I bought a one and it is still a bit large.

My granddaughter just turned three in January. She is 29 lbs and fits in the size four. The six may be long for him but you can always roll up the sleeves and legs. And he can wear it for two years I would guess.

I purchased the costume for my grandson who is 6 and he is over 40 lbs. It was a little big on him so I would say to be safe you may want to get a smaller size for your son. Check on their return policy before you purchase to make sure you will not be stuck with an item that you can't use.

The size 4-6 should fit him fine! My son wears 5ts and it is a perfect fit! He probably will not be able to wear it after a few months but for now it is a great fit!

The sizes run a little larger in my opinion. So if your a size 38 I would go for a 36 it will be more than enough.

I would recommend a small. My son is 9 and 90lbs and the small fit him snug. We recently move up to a medium which provide more room.

my husband is 5'6 and 160 pounds and got the small/medium. It's perfect for him. Note that my 4'6 son is 92 pounds. It fits him except for the small harness which hooks to tree is loose. I would suggest you go to the larger size

My 6 yr old son is 47 inches and 56 LBS and he is using Size 8 now. and there still is a little more room for now.

My son is 8 years old and in a size 6 that fits. He is super skinny though (normal height). If you get a 10 he can grow into it but it might be a bit big. An 8 would probably fit but he might be out of it quickly. I think my son weighs around 50 pounds?

Probably size 3. I'm 6'1", 190 lbx. & I got a size 5. Fits, but barely, nothing left over. So size 4 would definitely be too big for him.

My son is 3 and he fits just fine. He was 31lbs and 37 1/2 inches at his checkup a couple months ago. I think if you think he will like it, it should be fine. Kids will squeeze into whatever makes them happy!

Size 4-6. My son wears a Size 13.5 and I bought him this size. He's 45" tall and weighs 50 pounds. They fit him well.

I bought this vest in a size small as a Christmas present for my 5 year old son who weighs about 40 lbs. If you want him to get a lot if wear out if it, I would suggest going up one size.

I think he is borderline, he might be able to squeeze in for a little bit before outgrowing soon, esp. if he is tall. I bought XL pairs for my two kids. My daughter is almost 13 but about 82 pounds and short at about 5 feet. She can wear these pretty perfectly. The younger kid is even shorter but weighs more, like almost 90 pounds, and I don't think he's tried them yet but I think it will be a squeeze and he can only wear them this year. For your son, I agree, adult Men's sizes are way too big, the only other option he might have is a women's size XS if you do not risk the Kids XL.
