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

  • Height

    Have your child stand in front of the fridge.Mark the top of the head with a magnet. Measure a straight line from floor to magnet.

  • 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.

  • Hip

    Have your child stand like a tall tree with feet together. Measure a level line around the fullest part of the hips & seat.

  • Inseam

    Take a pair of pants that fit your child well. Measure along the seam from crotch to leg opening.

    Not quite long enough to reach the knee before washing and grandson is not tall. Otherwise, a decent thickness ( not too thick nor too thin). Great colors and great price.

    I buy these as a summer staple in most of the colors. They do fade with washing. I’ve never tried a color guard, but the fading doesn’t faze me or my boys. They don’t rip or tear and are good for hand me downs. The different colors is nice for options. Easy pull on without zippers or buttons. There’s a string to tighten if need be.

    These are literally the best shorts for boys! They are comfortable but dressy looking. They are the next best thing I can get my boys to wear next to basketball shorts. We have them in multiple colors and they are just great.

    Miss Ellie - 2 years ago, Verified purchaser
    Pictures do not do the product justice. Looks much cheaper quality than reality. Well made, closer to high rise so fear not with the midrise label and strings are long enough to double tie and tuck away. Color is not bright (afterwash fade look) but fit and comfort were my concerns. I have an underweight yet torso maturing 12yr old female that these fit easily for me to dress and comfortable for her to wear. We ordered size 8-10. It appears they should last the year with plenty of moveability, but I will keep the Brand for future purchases in mind.
