School uniform sizing can often differ from standard kids clothing sizes as uniform is usually categorised by body measurements instead of age. Finding the right size can be tricky as kids measurements change throughout the year. As our products are true to size, we do not recommend sizing down for school uniform. However, a great tip for getting a bit of extra wear out of kids\u2019 school uniform is sizing up by one or two sizes. This gives kids\u2019 nice room to grow but ensures they won\u2019t be wearing anything too oversized.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle”][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
We recommend using body measurements instead of a child\u2019s age to find the correct kids clothing size, we\u2019ve found this is the most accurate way to find school uniform sizes. Using body measures also allows you to order with confidence instead of having multiple sizes to try.<\/p>\n
Parents often ask, how do I measure my child at home?And it\u2019s rather simple because we use seven key measurements for our uniform sizing. Below is each measurement and how to measure this on your child.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Top Tip:<\/strong> Height:<\/strong> Measure from a level floor to the top of the head. The school blazer is a core piece of secondary school uniform, it\u2019s the item our children probably wear to school most often so getting the right blazer size is key. A school blazer should fit well with room for movement, ensuring a shirt and school jumper can be worn comfortably underneath. We factored this in when designing our school blazers, so they fit true to size and accommodate clothing underneath.<\/p>\n Top Tip:<\/strong> Measure around the fullest part of the chest, making sure that the tape is level under the arms and across the shoulder blades. Make sure you are relaxed when measuring to get a true measurement. If you measure as 30\u201d (or 76cm) then your blazer size will be a size 30\u201d as our blazers are true to size. When measuring the sleeve length, start from the shoulder point to where the sleeve would normally fit, this is usually where the cuff would sit on the wrist. To find the correct blazer length, measure from the top of the shoulder at the highest point to where you feel the blazer would sit when worn at the top of the thigh.<\/p>\n For a full breakdown of each measurement, check out the school blazer size guide below.[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=”Boys Blazer Size Guide” google_fonts=”font_family:Open%20Sans%3A300%2C300italic%2Cregular%2Citalic%2C600%2C600italic%2C700%2C700italic%2C800%2C800italic|font_style:800%20bold%20regular%3A800%3Anormal”][vc_single_image image=”14314″ img_size=”full”][vc_custom_heading text=”Girls School Eco-Blazer Size Guide (DL1991) :” google_fonts=”font_family:Open%20Sans%3A300%2C300italic%2Cregular%2Citalic%2C600%2C600italic%2C700%2C700italic%2C800%2C800italic|font_style:800%20bold%20regular%3A800%3Anormal”][vc_single_image image=”14317″ img_size=”full”][vc_custom_heading text=”Girls Slimmer Fit Eco-Blazer Size Guide (DL1995) :” google_fonts=”font_family:Open%20Sans%3A300%2C300italic%2Cregular%2Citalic%2C600%2C600italic%2C700%2C700italic%2C800%2C800italic|font_style:800%20bold%20regular%3A800%3Anormal”][vc_single_image image=”14319″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n When measuring your child for a school shirt remember that boys\u2019 sizes are given in collar size.

To measure the waist, measure around the waist at the natural waistline which is usually the smallest part. In younger children this tends to be midway between the bottom rib and the hip bone.<\/p>\n Kids school trousers use two measurements to determine clothing size, these are waist and inside leg. To measure the waist, measure around the waist at the natural waistline which is usually the smallest part. In younger children this tends to be midway between the bottom rib and the hip bone. When shopping our range of school trousers, you\u2019ll notice we offer different leg lengths to ensure there are options for all kids. Our trouser lengths are small (S), regular (R ), long (L), extra long (XL), and extra extra long (XXL). To find the ideal length of trousers use the inside leg measurement. When measuring the inside leg make sure your child is stood up straight, with shoes on. Measure from the top of the leg, inside near to the crotch area down to where you would like the trouser to fit. School trousers usually sit an inch or so from the floor if this seems too long it can of course be adjusted to a comfortable length.<\/p>\n Top Tip:<\/strong> [vc_section][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Getting the right size We know that getting the right kids clothing sizes is important, especially for school uniform as our children wear them so often.
