Will this vest fit a 2.5 year old boy, approx. 31lbs? Also, can the tool bel be detached at all?

It will be large but it will fit him.... My two year old wore it with no problem. To my recollection the toolbelt detaches but I'm not 100% sure...

The vest is big on my son, so it does move around on him. he says if he were bigger it would not move around so much.

I believe so. My husband and I go back and forth with this carrier and we've had no issues. When he's carrying our 2.5 year old there's still a lot of strap left over on all the adjustments. It really is a great carrier.

Probably not... It no longer fits my son and he's 22 months old. It's made for infants and toddlers.

Same here, my son has had his two years age 2 now 3. you can tighten it and loosen a bit go with the chest measurement for choices between small and medium You will get more time out of it. Works great

I bought this for my 2 year old son. He is very petite and when I have this as tight as it goes, it ALMOST stays up on his waist. He is very tiny though. I would say it would be perfect for most 3+ year olds. I am not sure how big the waist gets though.

It's a little difficult to pull back initially, but does loosen up after awhile. I think it would be all right for your grandson, at least he would be able to work with it for a few years to see if he likes it.

The vest would not last long being scraped through the ground, the weights would not fall out. Shifting maybe limited with the adjustable straps. I hike with mine.

It will fit him, however I found it made my daughter too top heavy and she tipped over more! The inflatable part needs to be under their arms/on their chest and it's really on their waist. I wouldn't use this for him.

It's not so much a matter of age as it is of child size. My four year old grandson stuffs all his plastic toy tools in all the pockets. He's taller then most his age but is slim. I've adjusted the belt as tight as I can make it and it's still a little large. Also the plastic buckle, similar to those on adult backpacks, seems to me to present a risk of pinched little fingers for a younger child. It hasn't occurred with our little guy.

The vest is not intended for airplane travel but I did use the vest for my 2 year 9 month old daughter last summer, it fit ok but I would have been less comfortable if she were any smaller than she was. She isn't the tallest so if your son is on the taller end of the chart he should be ok.

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 used it for my son when he did not walk. As he did not stand up, the vest went up to his neck and it was kind of "long" for his body.Then, when he started to walk, it became more confortable.He weights 24.25lb and he is 29.13 high.

It will likely fit around him, but will be very short. It fits my 32 lb 3.5 year old perfectly. I would suggest moving up a size, but looking for one with the strap between the legs so it doesn't ride up much. Those will be more expensive, though. It also depends what you are using it for and how likely it is that he will need it.

We gave a 2-1/2 year old and it fits her. Nice adjustments. Think you'll be quite happy and satisfied with it!

Yes! I would feel comfortable saying it is true to size. I bought it for a boy turning 5. It fit him well. It had plenty of room to spare and he was a normal size boy. It is well made and could easily fit for age 2 if the child was a little bigger.
