You only get one year, if lucky before the kids outgrow clothes and boots. There needs to be a place to pick up used stuff and places to sell used stuff.

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

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

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.

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.

There is a place in mandeville, and soon to be in Baton Rouge called Once Upon a Child, and its slightly used secondhand clothing from infants to children.

Once Upon a Child


There is another store on sherwood called Refinery that does the same thing

Refinery

Hope this helps

Edit: Reread your post... not guaranteed to have hunting all the time, but Ive seen camo many times
