This vest is fits our grand children ages ranging from 2 to 6. The children are average sized for their respective ages and the same medium sized vest can be worn by all of them. So it will likely fit your child too. This particular one is very easy to put on and take off. We have other types of vests too and the others are more difficult to put on and take off. It floats all the children nicely enough - even the 6 year old. I agree with Lynn Yannick... a slightly big vest works best. There is very little chance of it falling off once zipped up and the crotch strap is cinched up tight. This vest is fits our grand children ages ranging from 2 to 6.

You should check the speedo website for the correct size...the vest is lightweight so you may want it bigger so they don't outgrow it.

Hi Carol, I would get the 6-8. My son is 8 now and an average size. I bought this when he was six and I purchased the 6-8 and he has worn it a couple of years, Halloween, career day (he wants to be an astronaut), etc. It is the cutest and he gets so many compliments on it. He won't be able to wear it this year, he's finally out growing it.

I would get a 3T. It fits super tight And when they sit down the padding rides up. My son is 36 inches as well and 34.5 pounds. He is 21 months. The 2T was way to tight.

I bought the small for a largish six year old and it is large enough to go over a light jacket. I might consider the next size up for a seven year old, especially if you want it to fit for awhile.

My son is 9 and his chest is 27 in. and he is 70lbs. We ordered the youth small, it is a snug fit I wouldn't say tight, but you want that. You wouldn't want it shifting while he is playing the game. He is the same way with tight fitting clothes but has never complained about it being to tight.

I purchased this for my grandson. I got him a youth large. He is 119 pounds and about 5'5. I would get the same for that size.

000 should just fit, 00 might be a little big but he'll have room to grow. My 3 are all around 45 pounds, so they are a little smaller than your grandson and they are in 000, and it fits a little loose with plenty of room to grow.

It depends on the size of his hands. If he is smaller for his age group then a medium should be suffice. If he's a bigger kid I'd recommend at least a large

I think he may be a little young. I bought if for my girls who are 6 and 7 they seem to be a good size for it. There are drum sets that are a bit smaller( Jr sets) they may fit him a little better.

Our son is a straight 5T pants and shirt. We bought the boys small (4-6) and it fits him perfectly. Even 6 months after halloween it fits just right. If your son is a 6, go larger.

My son is 9 years old and 5 ft tall. It fits him well and he has some room for growth. The leg protectors and helmet will fit him fine but the chest protector could be to small depending on is waist and chest size. Easton has a size chart on their website.

No. You would definitely want at least 32". It depends how tall he is. If he's pushing 6 foot, you might opt for a 34" and he can choke up on the bat a bit. Or at least 33".

Get the 6-9. My guy is 14.5lbs and just starting to grow out of his 3-6 suit.

My child is 48 lbs, 48" and I got him the 6. He still has a bit of room to grow but he is lean and wiry. The 8 will probably be best, and there will be plenty of room to grow into it. P.S. the zippers are pretty flimsy on these newer models.

Hi Stephanie! Hmm . . .my son Zach just turned 5 last month and I was JUST starting to consider buying the next size up for him here pretty soon. Although this set is a decent size, in my opinion I think you might be happier with something a little bigger?

I would get a large which will be a little big for him or her but they will grow into it less quickly than they will grow out of a medium. You can always have your child wear a t-shirt under the vest if it is a little big as well.
