I am looking at this for my 41 lb., very skinny, almost 4 ft. 5 year old. Anyone have experience with this jacket on that size of child??

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.

My daughter is a juniors size large and pants size 9 and i bought this outfit in a X large and it fit perfect so if I had gotten a large it would have been to small. I would suggest going up a size from the jacket size. If your daughter is in a Juniors x-small go up to a small or medium. This cosplay outfit is really good quality and I got it for my daughter 2 years ago and she is still wearing it. I will get my daughters measurements and ask her how the jacket fit in proportion to her size now for you today. email me back at dauzzone@gmail.com or through amazon questions

Given that I have only bought one size, and I am a fully grown adult, it's difficult for me to recommend which one you should pick for your son. But, I did scan through the reviews to see which ones mention buying smaller sizes for their children. I came across a few that would at least come close to your son's statistics. The first one I found was bought for a 9 year old who was "Very tall" for her age, and they got her a medium. The reviewer said that if you buy a size perhaps slightly bigger than you were hoping for, the outfit comes with several straps that wrap around the waist and legs that can tighten it. (which I can confirm is true.) The only part that I've ever found to be loose is the upper chest region. I can't even seem to get that region to stay tucked in when I move around too much in the outfit. Also, another reviewer bought this for her 13 year old son who was 5'7 and 120 pounds and chose large. She said it was "a tad loose, but not too long." This is probably the example you were looking for, so listen carefully: Given the fact that you son is the same age as hers, and is both shorter and weighs less than her son, Medium might be a wiser choice - but remember I can't confirm that, I've never bought or tried any other side except for XL. At any rate, I think whether you pick medium or large everything will be fine. The medium might fit perfectly, and the large, if you decided to get that one, would at least be really comfortable, nonrestrictive to motor functions, and more importantly; he'd be able to continue using it as he ages and grows. So either decision you make I think you'll find good things about either of them. Hope I was of help.

My daughter was a very small when we put her in this vest. I believe she was around six months old when we first put her in it. At that age it definitely was around her chin and neck because she was just so small. This is a very adjustable life jacket and we were very pleased with our purchase. It works until she is 30 pounds so she can still wear it even now. You can't find a life jacket at Walmart or a supercenter anywhere that is going to fit a one-year-old. This is your best bet.

I purchased a medium.I am 5`3 and about 145pcs.Jacket fits well,the only thing it is a tight fit around the bottom.To zipper it I to pull it up and then pull it back down.I do like the fit,it's very comfortable.I would watch the waistline,if that's an issue.

i cannot recommend a size, but can tell it does run "true to size" and is a beautiful jacket. Very well made. I ordered an extra small for grand daughter and there appears to be room for a sweater., etc., but she is 5'1" and about 80 lbs., so cannot help you with the correct size, sorry!

I bought it for my niece when she was 5 and she was too big for it. She is also tall and skinny. Hope that helps!

You're right on the border line. You would technically be fine, but might not feel 100% comfortable. It's really great for kids and preteens. I am 5'3" and 130 lbs and am more comfortable the next size up, since we have both.

My daughter is 3 and fits fine, but I am not sure how comfortable a 4 year old would be. My daughter is on the short side. I would almost recommend going to a store and sitting your son in one to see.

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.

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.

Hi Elizabeth :)I thought that mine, i ordered a large, was just a bit snug. Im 6' and 200lbs. I think i would have been better off with an extra large. However the Jacket its self is Great.

The jacket fits my three-year-old pretty well -- and he wears a size 4. So I think this would probably be too small for your son.

Dear buyer: I bought this suit, and it barely fitted my then 10 years old, kinda skinny little boy. But then, I stretched it a bit, surprise, it fitted, so I guess it worked out for us. Hope this helps.

I think so, my daughter is 5, also tall and skinny and it works great for her!

It will probably be a bit large- my grandson just turned 5 and he is 40 something pounds and it fits him quite well. He sure loves it though, and it is a nice looking costume. So if you don't mind it being a bit big, it should be all right.

I am not good with kids sizes but it fits me well and I'm 5'10" and 145 pounds. This pack holds more than it looks like it will and can get heavy very quickly. 40-50 pounds. I think it would be too big. They have some smaller packs that may be a better fit.
