Kids’ measuring guide

Use the tips & visuals in this guide to make taking your child's body measurements easy-peasy.

Dont have a fabric tape measure? Use a shoelace or pant leg to measure. Then, lay it flat & use a ruler or tape measure to get a numerical measurement.

How to measure

  • Chest

    Have your child make airplane arms. Wrap tape measure around the fullest part of the chest, keeping it level & snug.

  • Waist

    With your child bending to one side, measure the point where the waist flexes naturally. Keep the tape level & comfortably loose.

    My boys love these shorts! We have them in a couple of the other colors. I wish they would add more colors. They are great to play in, but also they can be dressed with a polo shirt for church or other events they might need a dressier look.

    Bought these on vacation for my 8 yr old grandson so he’d have something other than basketball shorts to wear to dinner. He’s quite hard on clothes and it’s a battle to keep any outfit nice looking beyond 1 wear. These feel like $75 golf shorts, they just seem to stay dry. The best thing about them is that he has worn them everyday since he first put them on. They fit a muscular build very well without needing to get the husky.

    Bought for my little cousin for his birthday and they felt super cozy and light weight. He wore them on vacation and he said they were his favorite shorts. So far the color hasn’t faded and they have not shrunk in the wash.

    Perfect Summer Shorts

    Jennifer - 10 months ago, Verified purchaser
    My son finds these shorts extermely light-weight, stylish and comfortable. They are perfect for a nice dinner, school or play. I love the functionality for this reason. Also a big plus is that he has highly sensitive skin and the stitching is soft - especially around the waiste band. The Cat & Jack brand quick-dry does not have such soft stitching and the comparable shorts to that brand needed to be returned since they were not comfortable.

    What happened? Last years adventure shorts were great, had zippered pockets soft quick dry fabric and better design. So sad they are not available anymore, these adventure shorts are not good substitutes.

    These are a nice pair of shorts in a good weight fabric for activity, as referenced by the name. They are a really pale green, so I worry about them getting dirty. They have side seam pockets but also a cargo type pocket. I just wish the cargo type pocket had some sort of closure, but it doesn't.

    Jenns7 - 1 year ago
    These shorts are very lightweight and made with a cool fabric. They dry fast when they get wet. They have 4 nice pockets. The top pockets have a mesh lining, and the 2 lower side pockets are stitched down on one side of the covering flap to help hold it shut. The draw string is a thicker rope like string so a bow doesn't stay tied for me but if i double knot it, it does. They boys M (8) fit my 8 year old son well. He likes how they feel and enjoys wearing.

    Decent shorts. My son just doesn’t like them. He says they feel like a swimming suit because they make a swishing sound when he moves. They also seem to wrinkle really easy. I thought they would be nice light shorts for our vacation but he prefers athletics shorts.
