Default Fishing Vest for an Infant

My friends recently gave birth (well, actually, she did) to a little
boy. I am looking for an infant's size fishing vest as a gift. Any
ideas? I have tried LLBean, Orvis, Cabellas and Bass Pro Shop (hey, no
flames there, please, smallies on a 4wt is FUN!)along with multiple
websites. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Why would anyone manufacture a fishing vest for an infant ? If the
newborn were a girl would you be shopping for an infant sized tutu ?
Makes about as much sense.

I think you'd be better off just making one. The kid'll outgrow it in a
matter of weeks, anyway.

Nice idea, though. g

I have no idea where you'd find such a thing, but it would make one heck of a
good gift idea. They make miniature baseball and football jerseys, so why not
fishing vests? My guess is you'll have to get this made by a seamstress.

The hard part is going to be tying the #40 Royal Wulffs. ;-)

I don't know about a vest but Cabela's has camo wear for babies.

"I put that baby down right over there and now I can find him!" Kinda seems
like an unfair advantage for hide-and-seek games.

They also have camo vests for your hunting dogs. The hunter's orange ones
make more sense to me.

Huh ? Infants actually wear rompers, those snaps up and down the legs
are a dead giveaway as to the utility of that piece of clothing, the
logo is just a bonus. What on earth is a fishing vest good for, other
than a silly photo op reminiscent of putting reindeer antlers on the
dog at Christmastime ?

Personally, I get a kick out of the running shoes for infants.

But this site has fishing vests for toddlers (2-3 yo)
http://www.mysistersstore.com/vests_jackets.htm
And THIS site has miniature fly fishing gear for dolls. It might not fit the
kid, but its pretty cool tiny stuff! http://www.dolldesigns.com/dolls.html

But on the practical side, what about this?
http://www.toyworld2.com/detail.php?PID=1222
or this?
