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.

    These are my kids' go-to shorts. They are thick enough to handle rambunctious play, well cut, well constructed and easy on/off. Plus they're super affordable and come in a variety of colors. Five stars.

    Not Really Red

    I already had two pair of these shorts - they're quite comfortable. The picture of the red shorts made me question that color choice. The shorts look more salmon than red in the picture. Well, this time the picture is true. My shorts are salmon colored. I got what I expected. As a woman who can wear kids' clothing, I'm fine with the color. If you're expecting red, be warned. (They are comfy.)

    Cloud9 - 4 months ago, Verified purchaser
    Xs is so wide! It feels like they have resized the sizing across all the shorts I’ve purchased recently. Target was a dependable place to buy shorts for the slender beans, but now even XS is so wide that when I pull the drawstring tight enough, it’s so bunched up along the waistline it looks ridiculous even on my 9 year old, let alone my 6 year old.
