PRODUCT GUIDE

WHIPPERSNAPPER FIT AND SIZE CHART

Children come in all different sizes and different countries have different ideas of what a size measures.

We use only high-quality, medium to heavy-weight fabrics and our garments are an easy comfortable fit so the most important indicator of a child's size is their true height (i.e. without wearing shoes). 

We recommend you use the chart below to determine the correct size for the child that you are buying for.   All measurements are in centimetres.  If your height measurement is midway between two sizes, go for the smaller size for a closer fit or the larger size for a looser fit.  If in doubt (or you don't have a height measurement) we recommend you play it safe and go for the larger size.

Please note that our cotton/spandex Tanks, Raglan Tees and Layered Tees are slim fitting.  If you are in any doubt about the sizing for these garments then we recommend that you go up one age size - better to be a bit big for a little while than too short!

Elasticized waistbands, adjustable waists and belt loops have been added, where necessary, to achieve maximum functionality and allow for a full range of movement.

If you're still unsure about sizing, please get in touch with us. We'll be glad to help you find the right size.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

Our cotton/spandex tanks and tees are sized to allow for shrinkage. Expect these to shrink by approximately 2cm in the first wash. Provided you follow the instructions on the care labels, our merino garments will not shrink and can be worn and washed to your hearts content. These are machine washable in cold or warm water and can be tumble dried on a low heat.

For all of our other garments, care instructions are set out on the care labels.
