my 8 yr old son is 4'10", 53 lbs. tall/skinny. what size would he wear? Do you wear these over other sox?

Well I am 5'10" and medium fits me just right so small should work. To answer your second question no you do not; you place the shin pads then pull the provided sleeve over it which secures it nicely in place. The fabric for the sleeve is very thin so it might rip on contact if not covered by a sock. Hope I helped.

An xsmall for sure and those will probably be a bit big. It's hard to find the integrated football pants small enough for the little guys. You may need to go with an xxs football pant only and buy the pad set separate. This will assure a better fit. The other option is to get an xs in the integrated and have him wear a padded girdle (compression shorts with integrated pads) underneath to give more "filling".

My son wore the small and his waist is 30 and they fit him good but little long, be safe if you have bigger but and legs and are taller than 5' 4" go with med

My two boys are 4 feet or taller and wear a medium. I'd suggest a small but a medium had its advantages as well. Since the pants are calf length they'd likely start as pants and he'd grow into the calf length. So the medium would last longer. :-)

Hi TW, I think the ML size would still fit him. The sizes are made to be a bit loose to allow for extra layers underneath so I think it would fit fine. The XL/XXL size would be too long for him.

Yes, I have a boy of normal size who started wearing them right after he turned 4. They fit him fine.

my 8-year-old wears a7/8 and I got him the size small pants which are slightly large but if you pull the shoulders tight they work perfectly. My 9 year old where is an 8/10 and I got him the medium which works for him.

A medium would fit, our 8 year old fits size medium and his a little over 4 feet tall.

The ProTec Jr fits my strong built 8 year old son (size8) perfectly. My super tall, super thin 9 year old son (size 12slim) wears adult small, but pads are a bit too big so they slip. He often puts on jr size as small as they look because they do not slip. He will be wearing adult small for a few years.

The XL was a little big for my 10 yr. old but he wants it to last also. I would go with the XL.

My son is 130 lbs and 5'9" and his "small" fit him perfectly. My husband is about your size and for him I would definitely buy the large. By the way, this is a GREAT product! You won't be sorry. Helps so much!

I would say an XS. My son is almost 8 (very skinny but average height) and he wore a small this past season. He wears a 7-8 in normal clothes.

I think he is borderline, he might be able to squeeze in for a little bit before outgrowing soon, esp. if he is tall. I bought XL pairs for my two kids. My daughter is almost 13 but about 82 pounds and short at about 5 feet. She can wear these pretty perfectly. The younger kid is even shorter but weighs more, like almost 90 pounds, and I don't think he's tried them yet but I think it will be a squeeze and he can only wear them this year. For your son, I agree, adult Men's sizes are way too big, the only other option he might have is a women's size XS if you do not risk the Kids XL.

My son is about 4'6" with skinny legs. We bought him a small and they fit snug but just right. Can't imagine an adult would wear anything less than a large.

I think the regular should be okay. When I got this; my son was 9 but he's slim and they were a little loose but he said they were comfy. Now that he's 10 this year and a little taller and heavier, he says they are just right.

I would go to the Triple 8 website, once there look under product and you will find a chart with directions on how to get the best fit for your child. I measured both of my childrens head circumference and bought the size recommended and both fit perfectly. If your child's head circumference is between 20.10-20.50 inches then XS size would work.
