tuc tuc baby T-shirts and shirts are soft jersey pieces for girls and boys, mostly long-sleeved, with prints of dinosaurs, butterflies, cars or animals, plus a few blouses and shirts. They're designed for the 6 months to 2–3 years stage. Pair them with baby trousers or take a look at our baby sets.
What to look for in a baby T-shirt
- Soft jersey: moves with them when crawling and sleeping.
- Comfy neckline: it should slip easily over the head so you can dress them without tugging.
- Long sleeves in spring, autumn and winter: worn on their own or as a base layer.
Size by height
6 months: 63–68 cm · 9 months: 69–71 cm · 12 months: 72–74 cm · 18 months: 75–83 cm · 2 years: 84–92 cm. Babies grow fast at this age: if they're between two sizes, choose the larger one. Check the size guide.
How many to have
Between dribble, purées and crawling, a baby can easily get through two T-shirts a day. With seven or eight on rotation, you'll keep on top of the washing. One shirt or blouse is enough for photos and celebrations.
Washing baby clothes
Wash inside out, on a cold wash and without tumble drying, with a gentle detergent. That way the jersey stays soft and the print lasts longer.
Should I buy the exact size?
One size up is better. Roll the sleeves up a little for the first few days and the T-shirt will fit for several more months, which is what counts most at this age.
Frequently asked questions
What size T-shirt does a 1-year-old baby need?
For a 1-year-old, the usual choice is size 12 months (72–74 cm). If they're already taller than 74 cm, move up to size 18 months (75–83 cm). Enter their height on the product page and you'll see the recommended size.
Which baby T-shirt is most comfortable for crawling?
For crawling, the comfiest option is a soft jersey T-shirt with a flat print and no bulky appliqués on the chest. Long sleeves protect their arms as they shuffle across the floor and don't ride up as much as short sleeves.
How do I wash baby jersey clothes?
Wash baby jersey clothes inside out, on a cold wash and without tumble drying, with a gentle detergent, and follow the instructions on the care label. That way the fabric keeps its soft feel and its shape, and the prints last longer.
Does a baby need a shirt as well as T-shirts?
It's not essential, but a shirt or blouse comes in handy for christenings, weddings or family photos. For every day, a jersey T-shirt is more practical. If you're looking for outfits for a celebration, take a look at our special occasion section.
What's a useful gift for a 6-month-old baby?
