My child is 13 and I'm not sure if he should be in the 'youth' sizes or a small men's. He is 5'1" and weighs 98 lbs. Any info would be appreciated.

My guess would be youth. I personally have a Large that fits well, and I'm 5'11 and 230lbs. Best of luck.

I think you would be able to get away with ordering a youth x large. They are usually cheaper in youth sizes and I think it would fit fine.

Not sure...sounds like you're on the bubble between Peewee and Youth. If it helps, our 7-yr-old daughter got the Youth size when she was 51" tall and wore them comfortably.

I would recommend a youth large. My son is 8...they r a little bit big/long in finger tips but he has growing room and can use them next year.

You need to consider your childs weight as well. My daughter wore the size (M) 8-10 and it was a great fit. She was about 50 inches also but has a very slim frame.

Its really all about weight. This is probably pretty close to allow for some growth. We bought the medium for our sons 11th birthday and he's about 80 lbs. the zap web site has some guidelines on sizing as well.

Last year I bought my 11 year old stepson a medium. It was too small for him but fit my 5 year old. This says it's a youth jacket but it's more child sized. My advice is to either get the biggest size they have, or go with a different vest altogether

If you go to the McDavid site. They will have details on the sizing. My 13 year old wears a men's small as an example. Just measure the circumference of the joint and then choose the proper size.

I always "assume" youth to be anything from 5th grade to 8th grade kids before high school. I bought a few of these for our 5th& 6th grade football team this past fall for our QB to use. I think this would be good for a 5'4" 125lb kid - boy or girl should be fine. It worked perfectly for our QB, who probably was maybe a bit smaller and still worked fine.

I would buy the small size, my grandson is 13 and mine, which is a medium, is big for him.

My 3 year old son 27 lbs and 36 inches wears a size 1. He is a skinny kid with no body fat. It is a little short in the arms/legs (could be a inch or two longer) but zips easily over the torso. If you look at the other questions and answers, I posted a link to the size chart.

This ran true to size if not slightly on the small side. I bought a small child's and it fit my nephew who weighs 31lbs and is just now in a 4T. He is 4 1/2 but on the smaller size for his age so I expected it to be way too large. He can likely use it until he is 5 as there is room to grow.

I think a small would be okay. My son was about 5'8 and 130 lbs when I bought it and he's now 6'1 and 150 and the shirt still fits. He is slim.

I think it might be a little small. My son (who just turned 6 and is wearing size 5/6) fits perfectly in this now. In a year it will probably be too small.

I think they have weight recommendations on different models. My son is 14 and they are perfect for him.

The small would probably short on his arms and legs. I would probably go with the large. For the price you pay he'd probably grow out of it too fast.

My son was 23 lbs. at 2 1/2y when he started wearing this. (yes, he is very skinny.) I personally think this underwear is true to size. I'm sure it shrunk a bit after wash, because they fitted better on him. I do not recommend size S to your 34lbs. child. It would be really, really small.
