What size for an eight year old?

I would think this is too large for an 8 year old. The ball is the same size as an NBA ball.

It depends on how big your 8 yr old's head is. There's a sizing guide available - you'll need a cloth tape measure to measure around the head/face of the person you're sizing.

I bought the youth medium for my grandson, and he is only 8 I would say AT LEAST and adult small

My daughter wears a size 7 so the 5-8 size is good for her. Since your daughter is a size 4 now--she could still fit into the Kids 1-4, but then when her foot grows another inch she will fit into the size 5-8. She is so close to the 5-8 size. You might want to wait until she is a size 5 to be on the safe side.

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.

While they are adjustable I am not sure if they would be small enough but it depends on the size of the 8 year old.

I bought it for an average size 7-8 year old. Would depend on your boys size

Got a medium for my 8 year old. They still fit a year later, and they fit the 6 year old fine.

Size 8, he is about the size my daughter was when I bought hers and I got her an 8. They work better and stay warmer when they are more snug than loose.

My child is 48 lbs, 48" and I got him the 6. He still has a bit of room to grow but he is lean and wiry. The 8 will probably be best, and there will be plenty of room to grow into it. P.S. the zippers are pretty flimsy on these newer models.

I think Small would be best. My daughter is a size 8 and we purchased a Medium.

I have purchased both sizes, the 5 year old got the smaller one for his birthday, the 8 year old just got the larger one. Both fit them well and the boys were quite happy with also having pants. they are pretty average sized for their age. I also picked each of them up a pair of shoulder pads, found them for under $8 and Prime eligible. The ones that comes with are not really shoulder pads. Remember, this whole outfit is for play, not real competition football.

I think it comes in this size and one larger size. But my 30yr old husband, 7 year old daughter and 5 year old son all use this size with no problem. I'd say it's the perfect size for an eight year old.

I think a medium for size 8 and large size 10. I measured my grandson and went up a size.

I can't answer this directly as my oldest is 5, but I have the 60x30x15 for my kiddos because it fits our space. It is big enough for them to do forward and backward rolls. I do wish I had been able to get bigger b/c they will outgrow it soon, so I would definitely go up at least one size for an 8 year old.

my daughter also measures 8" and the size ones are perfect with a little room to grow. Hope that helps

A medium fits my average sized 6 year old son. Should fit him for several years (maybe til about age 9).
