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.

I bought these shirts for my son to lounge in and he loves them. They have survived outdoors play and are still holding up perfectly fine. 10/10 recommend especially for the price.

Way too short

Way shorter than pics show. Also cut shorter than they used to be a few years ago (at least for smaller sizes as my kids were younger then). Stop skimping on the length Target!

These are soft and material isn’t scratchy. Very stylish and almost like a racing flag. My son is a car lover and he liked these very much.

love these shorts

we love these shorts. they are easy for a child to pull on and off. the price is right. they do wear holes in them fairly quickly if your child is active, but still a great value.

I bought them in four colors!

These shorts are great quality and value! They wash well, and my boys love how comfy they are. I also appreciate the longer length. My oldest son is slim so we buy small sizes to fit his waist, which are usually too short for his long legs. These are a gear fit on him.

Great shorts

I have purchased so many pairs of these. My girls’ school requires black shorts with a certain inseam for gym. This works. I tried the girls department but they were all too short. The boys shorts are actually a little softer and they wash well. My girls like these so much they wear them out as well. Even better when they’re on sale.

Please, please, please restock the Brown color option (it looks like a Khaki & its what my child with special needs can pass as a uniform at his school!)

Absolutely love

My son is all muscle and at 4 is in 6/7 clothes these fit him great and dont give the tightness in the groin region that jean shorts or pants do. He can still play and keep up with his siblings and cousins

The Only Shorts My Boys Will Wear!

These French Terry shorts are a total win in our house! They're soft, breathable, and comfortable — good for kids with sensory sensitivities. The elastic waistband with a drawstring makes them easy to pull on and adjust, and the pockets are a great bonus. They come in tons of colors, and we have almost every one. My boys prefer these over denim any day. They’re also durable — despite lots of rough play and frequent washes, they’ve held up really well. Best of all, they’re affordable, which makes stocking up on multiple pairs a no-brainer. If you’re looking for everyday shorts that are comfy, easy to care for, durable, and kid-approved — these are it!

Short

Comfortable but short. 5T are longer than these. Tried sizing up for length, but they were too big in the waist.
