Baby boys' T-shirts: styles, sizes and outfit ideas
tuc tuc baby boys' T-shirts are jersey T-shirts and polo shirts with fun prints: sharks, pirates, palm trees, crabs or comic-style designs. There are vests, short-sleeved and long-sleeved styles, in sizes from 6 months to 16 years. Pair them with baby boys' shorts or baby trousers.
T-shirt, vest or polo shirt
- Vest: for the hottest days and the beach; some have shoulder fastenings, which makes dressing a baby easier.
- Short-sleeved jersey: the everyday staple, with front or all-over prints.
- Polo shirt: a touch smarter for family lunches or celebrations.
Size by height
Go by how tall he is, not just his age: 9 months is 69–71 cm, 12 months is 72–74 cm, 18 months is 75–83 cm and 2 years is 84–92 cm. Between two sizes, go for the larger one. You'll find all the measurements in the size guide.
How many to have
A baby who's feeding himself and crawling may need two changes a day. With six to eight T-shirts on rotation, you've got plenty of leeway between washes without running short.
Caring for jersey
Wash inside out on a cold wash so the print and neckline keep their shape, even after lots of washes.
Shoulder fastening?
If your baby doesn't cooperate with getting dressed yet, look for T-shirts with a shoulder fastening or a wide neckline: they go over the head without tugging and changes are much quicker.
Frequently asked questions
What size T-shirt should I buy for an 18-month-old baby boy?
Buy size 18 months if he's between 75 and 83 cm tall. If he's already over 83 cm, size 2 years (84–92 cm) will fit him better and last longer. On the product page you can enter his height to see the recommended size.
Are vests good for baby boys in summer?
Yes, jersey vests are cool and comfy for hot days, the pool or the beach. As they leave the shoulders bare, remember to protect him from the sun with sun cream and a sun hat, and keep a short-sleeved T-shirt handy for when the sun goes down.
When should a baby boy wear a polo shirt?
A polo shirt is the go-to when you want him to look a little smarter without sacrificing comfort: family lunches, christenings or photos. Pair it with shorts or woven trousers; for special events, also take a look at our boys' special occasion section.
How do I wash baby boys' T-shirts so the print lasts?
Wash them inside out, in cold water and without tumble drying, and follow the instructions on the care label. That way the front print suffers less and the jersey keeps its shape. Avoid ironing over the design: if you need to, iron it inside out.
What baby boy T-shirt prints does tuc tuc have?
At tuc tuc you'll find baby boys' T-shirts with sharks, pirates, pineapples, palm trees, fish, crabs, reptiles, surf designs, stripes and comic-style graphics. There are polo shirts and vests too. They're all made in compliance with the EU REACH regulation.
What can I buy a 1-year-old baby boy besides basic clothes?
A pack of two or three T-shirts with fun prints is a useful gift that always gets worn. Choose size 18 months for a 1-year-old so it fits him for longer. You can round it off with a pair of matching shorts.
