Boy Suits

Try Vonmaur, they usually have suits for boys.

The only place I have had any luck finding suits that size is JCPenney. I'm not sure if they have tan ones but with Easter coming up, I'm sure they have a decent selection. We bought my son one a couple years ago and he was a size 2T. I don't remember the price.

You could also try Kohl's if you could get away with a shirt/pants. I haven't seen suit jackets there before (well, that small anyway.) Another thought would be a suit rental place--maybe they have one you could rent, but then again the price would probably be about the same as buying one.

Good Luck,
M.

you might look al walmart becuase that is where my daddy got his at i think

Try Burlington Coat Factory! We've had great luck there for boys' suits (and you should find something under $60!)

Good Morning,
I had the same problem finding a tan suit for my son last summer, except he's 12. Macy's had smaller tan suits, the brand was Claiborne. Ebay was a good referral source to check other brands/sizes so I'd know where to go locally!

hi D...
i am new to mamasource. did you try ebay? i have alot of luck finding hard to find items on there. hope that helps.

Try the Growing Years, Children's Orchard or any of the Once Upon A Child stores. They are all resale shops but they are very picky about what they will take so you will find nice things.

Hi D., Would your sister be okay with a pair of khaki shorts? It would be a lot cheaper on you then a suit. If you still need a suit try one of the bridal shops down in Reading on Benson street. I know there are several that sell childresn's clothes and there are a few that specialize in children's wedding attire. Also, Trader's World has a couple of places that sell children's dress clothes. I know it may sound tacky but hey, as long as the clothes look good who cares where you buy them? Right?

Good Luck, D.

Try Ebay
Search for "4T suit"

Hi D., I went through the same thing several years ago and ended up making my sons suit. It was really a very simple pattern. No lapels to worry about and because he was so young 3 yrs. old it was absolutely darling on him. It was a summer wedding and I made shorts to go with the jacket then put him in knee socks. Oh my gosh what a cutie. Have fun.

Try Burlington Coat Factory's "Baby Depot" I havent been in there in a while but I bought my son a cute suit there for Thanksgiving and it was like $20.00. I dont know what area u are in but the one in Mentor has a big selection for kids,I would try there because they will probably get some in for Easter this year.
Good Luck.

D.,
Since Easter is so early this year I would try the resale shops in your area. I have always found some really great deals there. You might also want to watch the sales at all the stores with an early Easter that type of clothing will hit the shelves earlier. Hope this helps.

I don't know if they have any tan suits, but I got my son's white baptismal suit at Dillard's for about $40. It was a 9-month size and it was all one piece, but you may want to try there. Good luck!

Ebay has the best prices. I've got some from there.

I was just at the Burlington Coat factory in Boardman, OH - they had a good selection and nice looking suits for toddlers. They are priced way under $60. There is also a NEW Burlington store in Niles, OH - just opened in the fall of last year.

first try asking any of your friends to see if they might have one to either borrow or they might want to sell-next try places like second hand stores-even goodwill youd be surprised the stuff you can find in there. good luck C.

What size are you looking for? I actually have one that I am willing to part with. I believe it was only worn once. Let me know.

I got the two ring bearers tuxes for my wedding from here.

Hope it helps!!

Try Ducks and Darlings on EBay. I think my son's suit was $40. Measure him though - I think they tend to run big. It was great quality and came with a shirt and tie.

I recently found tan suits for my boys (2T and 6) at TJ Maxx (Marshall's tends to carry the same or similar). I paid $24.99 for one and $19.99 for the other. Both suits came with a shirt and tie. One has a linen look and the other is a seersucker. This the perfect time to buy with Easter coming up soon ! Good luck.

Have you asked family members to see if anyone has one you can borrow? Or fellow church members or any group either of you belong to?

There are also thrift stores and consignment shops.

Best wishes,

Phyl

Think E-Bay! I got a suit for my son (3 yrs at the time)to wear in his brother's wedding. Got the entire thing, with shirt for $30. It was great! He wore it to a business dinner and Christmas service that year, so I think we got our moneys worth. Good luck. Oh - they do tend to run snug - go up a size ;)

Try www.dapperlads.com
That's where we found Eton suits for a recent wedding.

I second ebay- keep checking at least once a week- you will find what you need!! I got a tux for my son to wear in 2 weddings- the rental for 1 was $60 and I bought it on ebay- jacket, pants, shirt, bow tie ...everything for $20!! since you have a couple of months just keep your eye out!

i would also say ebay. (or craigslist).
if you're not into ebay try a local consignment shop or even a children's second hand store.
also, if you belong to a church, moms group, book club, etc. ask around. a lot of moms keep all of their kids clothes & may have something you could borrow or buy.

Try Burlington Coat Factory and the clearance racks at the Department stores like Macy's, Penney's and Kohls. I got my son a really nice Sean John suit (light beige) at Macy's marked down from $110 to $20. Good luck!

Sears has great sales on kids dress clothes, especially around easter time.

I found my son's suit for his first communion last year at Value City in Ft. Wayne.
It was $40.00.
So you might try there.
Where are you located at?

I had to by my son a suit this past summer and I ended up at JC Penney. But now that it is close to Easter, I know Sears carries them as well. If they do not have them out already (which was my case) just ask an associate. They mentioned to me that they keep them in the stock room. Hope this helps.

Check out Burlington Coat Factory. Good selection and good prices. There's a store in Middleburg Hts. and also one in Macedonia.

The children's place has a stone colored linen blazer $24.50...(online) perhaps if it is a beach wedding...maybe he could wear dressy shorts with a blazer and a cute pair of leather sandals? Also, JCP and Dillard's are having great sales right not...if he is a bigger boy, you might could look in the 4-8 section and have something altered to fit. Dillard's St Matthews third floor is chock full of kid's clothes and a lot on sale...if you sign up for their email they will tell you when they have an additional 30% off clearance. Also I believe there is an upscale children's consignment shop on Shelbyville Rd...perhaps if it is a one time use for the suit, might not be a bad place to try. Good luck!

Ebay is your friend.

check it out - it's where we put all of our stuff and where we get alot of it....I got $550 worth of toys for $35 with a local pickup...

If not, try Von Maur or Dillards. They tend to have good sales on boy's suits.

Good luck!

Try a second hand store. We have them here in Mentor ohio. We have a few stores that only sell children clothes. Some of clothes are new.

There are suit and dress rental places online, and they are very reasonable. Renting is great, because you don't have to spend a bundle on something that he'll only wear once, and you don't have to pay for dry cleaning, either. Gagas.com has 2 different tan suits in a size 4 for about $17 for a 3 week rental. Check them out, and if you don't like them, do a google search for suit rental. Good luck! Have a great time at the wedding.

My sons were in my brothers wedding last year and I found both suit at JCPennys. I think I paid around $70 for both and they came with pants, shirt, vest and tie. I bet your best bet would be to check all the local stores now that Easter is coming up. They will probably have something in a light color.

Good Luck!

try burlington coat factory... u never know

Try GaGa.com you can rent for three weeks for about $19.95, I don't know if they have tan but my grandson needed a tux for a wedding last August (3T) and I wasn't paying $80 dollars. They sent everything thru the mail and I had free shipping so the return envelope was in the package. They told you when to mail it back so as to be timely. Hope it helps. You might JcPenney since Easter is coming and the spring line just keep checking. Target online or google toddler suits.

Ms B.

Burlington coat factory usually has a large selection of little boys suits. especially around easter. they are always reasonably priced.

I think there is a place out by schottenstiens on main street also try kohls and schottensateins , jc penny may also
good luck

There use to be a place for such items in downtown Cincinnati. Try in Hyde Park. There is a children's clothing store that may have something. How about a JC Penny's outlet. I think the one in Columbus closed but I bet you could call a store and find out if they have one still around. What about online somewhere?
Sounds like you may have time to have a suit made. I use to make my oldest son's things when he was little.

I would check a used kids clothes store like WORN & REBORN in Ashland 703 Union ST. ///419-###-###-####.
Or I usually find really good deals on clothes like that at the JC Penny outlet in the Rolling Acres mall in Akron. That is the only JC Penny outlet that I know of, but you could check on line and see if there is another one any closer.

Never tried it but seen advertised.

It is really hard to find affordable suits for boys. JCPenney and Sears has a good in-store selection especially around Easter and the winter holidays. I found a little suit w/o jacket at JCPenney's for my son who was in a wedding for less than $20! Check their on-line stores too!

D., My boys were in a wedding last July. I rented a shorts tuxedo outfit from gaga's. Very reasonably priced!! Really worked with me. visit them if interested at www.gagas.com

Try Value City. They have alot of dressy clothes for little ones. Also try Ebay.

Consider paying someone to make what you need. You could pre-purchase the fabric and the pattern - or work something out so there would be no mark-up.

I get most of the clothes for my daughter, especially holiday dresses at Once Upon a Child. They should have a good selection of good clothes for spring and I never pay more than $8 - $10 for things.

If you wait until after Easter, JCPenney often has toddler boy suits that they clearance.

Hi D.

About 3 years ago my son was my ring bearer. I got his suit on ebay for a good price. I hope you find what your looking for good luck.
