My 13 yr old son is 5' 9" and growing! He has a slim build. Anyone have a suggestion on a size? I was thinking Adult Med based on other users.

I'm a heavy-set 6'1" and I got the XL. They fit my waist fine, but are long on me. I think the L would probably have been better for me, so I think your son will do fine with the Med.

I think from birth is fine. Our little guy is now 13 pounds, 22 inches, and fits really well. When he was born he was early at 5 pounds and change; he didn't fit well at that time, but sometime in between everything worked out, probably all depends on length. Even when he was was tiny we put him in once for a short walk and just reclined the back so that there wasn't as much effect of gravity. The next time we tried it after that he was around 8-9 pounds and was fine. Hope that helps some.

My son is 8 years old & wears a size 7-8, it fit fine. My son is tall, the pants were a little short. No problem, I just made sure he wore black socks.

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.

I've been wondering myself. Can't seem to find anywhere in all the reviews, which size to pick up for an 8 year old. Should I do the 14" or the 12". Let me know if you went ahead w/ a purchase. Thanks!!

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

Medium is meant for 5"4 to 5"7 so medium is probably the best fit for him. I'm 16 and 5"11 yet I use medium because they're little and light and being the forward I want to be I think it's best but that's my opinion and one day it'll probably screw me over but yeah medium for a safe nice fit

Looks like I ordered sz Sm for my 8 yr old (now 9 yrs-3rd Gr) and sz Md for 9 yr old (now 10 yrs-5th Gr) last season. They are still wearing those sizes. I remember Lg was too large for skinny 10 yr old. I have another pair of white with blue strip Sz 7 for younger.

My son is 8 years old and in a size 6 that fits. He is super skinny though (normal height). If you get a 10 he can grow into it but it might be a bit big. An 8 would probably fit but he might be out of it quickly. I think my son weighs around 50 pounds?

Dear sir/madam,If your son also a tall boy, My advice is x-l. If he is normal height, can choose L

You might want to try one on at a local place? Or measure the head and look at the sizing chart. The Full90 is adjustable with Velcro to give a more custom fit. Didn't want one too big because you need it to stay on the head. We got the sm/med for my 11 year old.

my 13 year old is slim and weighs around 90 lbs. The youth was way too small for him. The adult is a little large but he manages without complaint.

The child size may be better for him. I am 5'10" 180 athletic and it fits me big. a bit baggy. If you were to go for it. you could tie up the pants and sleeves by taking a row or 3 and folding it up a couple rows, and sew it there.. repeat if needed. I highly recommend this companies suit. Best i have had so far. some were up to 400$ nice quality. But this is best i have seen. Own 6^ paintball, air-soft, general sneakiness. BTW... suit has some sort of don't pay attention to me appeal(more than normal).. like less reflective? idk but works perfect. Enjoy.

My 12 year old son uses the X2 youth medium and it fits great. He has been using it for almost a year now. Xenith has a guide on how to properly measure for your child so you can het the best fit

My daughter was 50" and 56lbs when i bought them and got her a medium. They fit perfect. I would say a medium would work fine for your son.
