Youth Hunting Clothes

[RunsWithDeers]

Just curious where everyone gets their kids hunting clothes at? I have a 10 year old and the cost of camo is getting ridiculous, at academy it's $120 for a set of bibs and a jacket she will only get 2 years out of (hopefully).

Open to recommendations or used kids camo if it's in good condition!

I would just get mine a pair of pants to big and a shirt to big and a sweat suit and thermals underneath

It's not necessary for most hunting. I have mine use old dark colored stuff mostly. I have called gobblers in tight on kids wearing purple boots or a short sleeve grey t-shirt. Sit in the shade and don't move. Invisible.

If you really want camo consider a leafy suit. Those will pull over a wide range of sizes. Just layer underneath.

Buy the camo out of the kids stuff at walmart,sweat pants shirts and such.

My kids have been wearing dark colored solids for the past couple years. Often times, they hunt in blue jeans with a camo jacket. When it gets real cold they wear a pair of insulated coveralls over their layers.
The leafy suit suggested above is a great idea. It’ll slip over literally anything.

Walmart is a good option and watch for Bass Pro/Cabelas sales. If you are sure on size eBay is a good option for used clothes as well. I feel your pain I have 4 and they all want to wear what daddy wears at their age so just doing dark clothes isn’t quite the same for them.

I add a surplus army blanket to my pack when I hunt with them and they use regular pants and M65 field jacket. Seem to stay pretty warm and it’s cheap

I forgot to tell you also that clothing consignment stores almost always have TONS of womens and young mens/boys clothes that are good for hunting, “Wear Me Again” in Carrollton and Bremen just about always have some good stuff. $30 will get ya an armload.

I vote for an ODT hand-me-down thread. I gave away all of my son's old hunting duds once he outgrew them so unfortunately don't have any to offer up but I bet a lot of folks on here do.

Shop Walmart and Academy about a week or two before the season ends. They put the camo on clearance. You can buy cheap and a size up to use for next season.
