Kids outgrow hunting clothes way too quick there needs to be a second hand store

Academy at the end of the season has hunting clothes for 1/2 price. Basically the same thing.

I bought used years ago for mine. Goodwill, Jacobs well, etc

Problem with Academy is they do not wait until the very end of season. As soon as season gets near to an end, the dump everything very quick. I have gone in there many times wondering where their hunting clothes were

and u can take em back to Academy after the next season.

I am talking about a resell place for hunting stuff. Kids clothes really stick out as having a market. It would probably need to be added into an existing store to have make it year round but it sounds like a good business model.

no clothes when squirrel season is still open?

Let hunting season end first before you put out swim waer

Start a Facebook group. There should be a big demand for that. My parents had three boys and always complained about that

I don't want to do it, but someone else might.

Any upland hunters with little kids? I have a Cabelas shooting shirt size 4, long sleeve that I will ship someone if it will be put to use...

Clothing swap, either "formally" or just here and there.

Unless, of course, you're saving the oldest one's clothes for hand-me-downs.

Wick,
You're right on about kid's outgrowing hunting clothes too quickly. I especially always hated how quickly mine outgrew boots. Heck, one year I bought boots for my son and he'd outgrown them in only 3 months. :bang head: As far as boots, the best thing I found was a product called "Boot Blanket." It's a heavily insulated overboot designed to put on once you get to the stand. I bought a pair that "fit" multiple children for many years. Now my wife uses them at outdoor sporting events.

You only get one year, if lucky before the kids outgrow clothes and boots.

Agreed. If you have buds or coworkers with younger ones this is an option. I have seen some of my daughters stuff passed down to my son then to a coworker who has several younger children and each time I see a pic it feels good to see some true ware on those items. just about everything my son outgrew has been passed on. I am sure if you posted some items that have been outgrown here folks would gladly take them off your hands.

At that point you know you raised them right, but at your own expense...
