Boy

Comfortable, hard-wearing clothes for playing, school and going out: printed knit T-shirts, trousers, outfits, hoodies, coats and raincoats and, for special occasions, shirts and blazers. All designs are our own, with dinosaurs, tigers, graffiti and urban motifs.

A 6-year-old boy usually wears size 6 if he's between 111 and 116 cm tall. If he's already over 116 cm, size 7 (117–122 cm) will last him longer. The most reliable way is to measure his height: on each product page you can enter it to see the recommended size. If he's between two sizes, always choose the larger one.

For everyday school wear, knit and fleece pieces work best, as they wash well and let him move: sweatshirt and trouser sets, trousers with an elasticated waist and long-sleeved T-shirts. Add a jacket or raincoat for chilly or rainy days.

As a general rule, wash inside out, in cold water and don't tumble dry, and follow each garment's care label. Washing inside out protects prints and appliqués, and cold water helps the fleece keep its shape and soft feel wash after wash.

For a ceremony, a blazer with a shirt and woven fabric shorts or trousers is the smartest option; for something more relaxed, an embroidered polo shirt and shorts. You'll find all these pieces in our boys' occasionwear, in sizes from 12 months to 16 years.
