The Kids Ghillie Suits

There is no other ghillie suit out there that brings as much pleasure, excitement, plain fun, or which fulfills dreams as much as the kid's ghillie suit. That probably has more to do with the recipient than it does with the suit.

Young boys have always played at war or games of conflict of one sort or another. They also always had their camouflage to go along with that play. The kid's ghillie suit came available and brought to those boys a "real" ghillie suit. Though home made camouflage is every bit as effective and sometimes better, in a boys mind it isn't the "real" thing.

The first kid's ghillie suit was your basic ghillie built on a mesh base and included the pull-over top, pants, a hood, and a rifle wrap. It was available in woodland and desert patterns and one size with drawstrings so that it would fit most any young hunter out there.

There are others now and as you would expect, improvements such as a zippered jacket, and a more expensive version with a liner. Actually, most of the ghillie suits available would work nicely for kids if you got the smaller size, but most are probably cost-prohibitive for a kid's suit.

In 2008 everyone ran out of kid's ghillie suits, but this year there are 2 sources instead of one. The original from BushRag is still available. We also have one from the nebulous "Stealthsuit".

Get your "kid" a kids ghillie suit from http://www.ghilliesandstuff.com/ while he is still a kid. Next year may be too late.
