Anyone seen any?? Oliver and I went looking at Tuggeranong the other day, thinking it would be easy, but do you think we could find any gumboots smaller than a size 7?? A 6 would probably be OK for him, but 7 was too big! We tried every shop there that sells shoes, but no go.
So to the people who frequent other shopping centres around the place, have you seen any??
Thanks
Mel

Hi Mel, I know Bunnings Tuggeranong have some but unsure of the sizes. (they are Bunnings ones so he would be waling around advertising Bunnings store) I noticed them in the Gardening Glove aisle (which I think is aisle 18)

Big W normally have a lot of kids gumboots all year round.

Aldi Tuggger's have 'snow boots' these are water proof and thickly padded.

DS is a 6 but the size we brought was 5/6 or 6/7 they where only $19.95.

But the best part is even through his 2 years 3 months he can put these shoes on himself.

We got some of the Bunnings boots a few weeks ago - a bargain at $8 a pair. From memory they only had bigger sizes though - mostly 10s, 11s and 12s.

Good luck in your hunt!

I think Pumpkin Patch (in Woden) might have some. I was recently looking for size 9 gumboots, and while hunting through the shelves at PP I realised that the majority were too small. Perhaps it would be worthwhile giving them a call? I eventually found a blue dinosaur pair - on special at $19.99.

Pretty Sure the Patch does have 'em. Well at least they did in girls on the weekend.

I spent ages going through every single pair at Bunnings Fyshwick last week. The smallest was 8 1/2.

Thanks everyone, will try those spots out on the weekend. I'd love to let Ollie have some simple pleasures like puddle jumping!
