HISEA Kids Chest Waders with Boots, Youth Waterproof Fishing Wader, PVC Waders for Toddler Children with Reflect Safety Band

We have ordered multiple pairs of the HiSea kids waders since at least 2022 for use during classroom field trips in conjunction with Trout Unlimited’s Trout in the Classroom (TIC) program. Students raise trout from eggs or hatchlings in the classroom and in spring they release them in approved streams. The waders allow students to have a more direct connection to the release and also do other activities while staying safe. Our groups can range from kindergarten to high schoolers and/or special ed. These are quick drying which is highly important when we need to use them back to back days. Even if a kid accidentally (or intentionally) falls in and gets water inside the waders we can hang them up overnight and they will be ready the next day. They are holding up well and are a big improvement over the canvas covered rubber waders that we started with. Kids love the soft lightweight texture compared to heavier choices and younger ages have an easier time getting them on and off without adult help. We like the blue color as it gives more visibility to where students are for chaperones and staff to keep track of in a group setting. Another plus is it’s attractive in photos for the parents and kids. I only have a couple photos to share but you can see how the blue pops against natural settings compared to the green. Color is a personal preference and if you’re buying just for one kid to fish you may prefer the traditional green. The new updated version is even better. The buckles are wider. The upper strap has a stop sewn into it to prevent the loss of the snap buckle. They use European sizes which avoids confusion between men’s, women’s, girls, boys, and toddlers. Our first experience trying to buy kid waders was getting a brand that would fit an adult female in height but had child sized feet! These are actually kid sized - from feet to chest! We keep buying this brand as we replace old inventory. It’s a definite recommendation if you’re looking for child sized waders.

I bought these for my daughter to go razor clamming for the first time and they worked great! We did all the measurements for the sizing and everything fit exactly as it should. She stayed dry and comfy and warm on those night digs and was by far the most stylish on the beach. So far they haven't leaked at all and they have taken the abuse, we will see what happens come first of the year as we have a couple more digs to do. Great purchase for kids though, they grow out of stuff so fast that you don't want to spend a fortune and these are the solution. They do have lifetime warranty though so we will see if it will make it through both my kids haha

Worth the price for quickly growing kids! Durability and Quality: excellent! The material, seams, shoulder straps, draw string and waist belt kept this guy dry in the swamp. Withstands walking through tall grass, played in the water and wears on rainy days. Not bulky or heavy! More than enough room for warmer layers.

Son loves them. Fit is great

Nice quality, keeps kids dry when wading in rivers. Unfortunately the shoe and leg sizing seems a little off. To get a toddler sized foot into the waders the legs of the suit are super long and bunched up even with the shoulder straps as tight/shortened as they get. If your kid is ok with that then these are perfectly fine

Bought them for the price, surprised by the quality. My son won’t use them in frigid conditions and rough surf, but enjoys getting into the water to fish. Main reason for purchase was to add a little extra to fishing trips to the back bays. They did everything asked and he came out dry.

I wasn't expecting much since these were about half the price as the ones at my local sporting goods store. However, they're nice quality. Heavy material, no smell and definitely waterproof. The sizing was a bit off for us. They fit my son's feet perfectly (he wears a 6-6.5 shoe), but they were quite long for him even after we tightened the straps to the smallest they would go. We ended up crossing the straps in front of his chest and buckling them and then they stayed on and up perfectly. Even though they were too long for my son, we made them work and I honestly I'm very pleased with no real complaints.

Works great!! My son has used it almost every day, even in icy cold water it works great! Great value for the money!
