Wellies for chunky toddlers

[LordOfTheOnionRings]

Hey!

14 month old son, has been walking for about five months now but he is quite a heavy boy (two stone). He has always been heavy, but is well fed healthy and nutritious food so please no comments about his weight please.

Do you know of any brands that cater for larger legs? He loves puddles but I haven't found any wellies that fit on his legs and i'm constantly washing his trainers.

Thanks.

I bought normal wellies from Tesco and cut them down the sides a couple of inches in a v shape so that his chunky little legs would fit in them. Not perfect, but was the only way I could get the wellies on! Good luck op!

Try crocs. They're wider on the leg part than those you might find in the supermarket or H&M etc. I always buy crocs for my daughter (normal leg size tho). The quality is great.

But ankle wellies and fishing waders trousers. Keeps him dry and clean.

Waders would go down over ankle wellies. Should have made that clear.

I agree with crocs wellies. I work in a reception class and the dc are in and out of their wellies all day and the ones with crocs wellies seem to find it easier than most.

I could not get crocs on my chunky calved and short legged toddler and no luck with supermarket wellies either. We randomly bought a pair of Grace and Air ones on a day out that turned muddy and they have really wide tops. They’re not the cheapest but the quality is good.
