Work wear for boys

[British Red]

Does anyone know a source of hide work gloves and safety boots for an (11yo) boy please? Weird request but there you go.

Our local Wickes had some work boots the other day in smaller sizes, cant help on the gloves.

Away into the store like Wilkinson's and Poundland and have a look at their gardening gloves….I got leather ones like those in poundland last year…I have small hands, they were a little roomy, but they did the job. Goatskin I reckon they were. Plain, neat and tidy, should do a boy child fine The place I usually buy gloves from is Arco. They do a tremendous selection of working folks gloves.

Tooltray do them too…

Aye you are probably right. I have to schlep into town shortly, I'll take a gander.

If you don't have any joy, let me know, I'm pretty sure I've a pair left from last year in the box of work gloves. I mostly use the little nylon ones that have been dipped in rubber over the finger tips and palms.

Arco make the steel toecap boots in very small sizes. Apparantly that's where a lot of the lads who join the Army cadets acquire theirs.

[Toddy]

If they're of use, I have a pair of size 3 grub boots that aren't getting used. In very good nick.

Sorry, cross-posted with Chis.

I need to check on the boots, I'll text his Dad. "Hellish small". Is all I know. He's a skinny waif. Child medium in gloves. But he left his outdoor (rubbish) gloves here, so I have a template
