tuc tuc baby trousers come in sweatshirt fleece, knit, corduroy and denim, designed for crawling, first steps and moving freely. Most have an elasticated waist that adapts to the nappy. They start at size 6 months and some styles carry on into kids' sizes. For the rest of the wardrobe, take a look at baby outfits and baby sweatshirts.
What to look for in baby trousers
- Elasticated or drawstring waist: quick on and off at every nappy change.
- Sweatshirt fleece or knit: they stretch with crawling and don't dig in.
- Elasticated cuffs: the hems don't ride up or drag when they start walking.
Size by height
A baby measuring 72–74 cm wears size 9-12 months, and from 75 to 83 cm size 12-18 months. If they're on the borderline, go up a size: the nappy takes up room and babies grow fast. Turning up the hems can give you a couple more months' wear.
Denim or fleece
Fleece is the comfiest option for naps or a full day at nursery. Baby jeans with an elasticated waist look smarter and go with any T-shirt or jumper.
If your baby is already walking and is over 92 cm, move up to size 2 or 3 years, where you'll find the same fleece and denim styles in a bigger version.
How many pairs of baby trousers do I need?
Allow four to six pairs per size: babies get messy often and clothes are washed almost daily. Mix fleece for everyday with one or two smarter pairs of jeans.
Frequently asked questions
What size trousers does a 1 year old baby wear?
It depends on their height more than their age: a baby measuring 72–74 cm wears size 9-12 months and one measuring 75–83 cm, size 12-18 months. With a nappy on, if you're unsure between two sizes, choose the larger one. See the full chart in the size guide.
Are jeans comfortable for a crawling baby?
Yes, if the jeans have an elasticated waist and a soft fabric. tuc tuc baby jeans are designed for moving, but for crawling all day, fleece or knit stretch more. A good idea is to save the jeans for outings and keep fleece for home and nursery.
Which baby trousers are best for nursery?
Fleece trousers with an elasticated waist are the most practical for nursery: they go down and up quickly at nappy changes and let babies crawl and climb freely. Better without buttons or zips, so the nursery staff can manage them easily and your baby stays comfy at nap time.
How to wash baby trousers so they stay soft?
Wash them inside out, cold and with a gentle detergent, and avoid the tumble dryer. That way fleece and knit keep their feel and prints don't fade. As a general rule, follow each garment's care label. Washing them before the first wear is also a good habit.
Are baby trousers a good gift idea?
Yes, especially if you choose a size up from their current one: that way the baby is sure to wear them. Printed fleece trousers paired with a matching sweatshirt or T-shirt make a practical and pretty gift. If you don't know their height, go for an elasticated waist, which is more forgiving.
What baby trousers does tuc tuc offer?
tuc tuc offers baby trousers in sweatshirt fleece with animal and dinosaur prints, jeans with hearts or embroidery, corduroy, knit and ribbed fabric, for girls and boys. They're the brand's own designs, made in line with the European REACH regulation, and most have an elasticated or adjustable waist.
