Sizing - a tricky thing!

Sizing on children's clothes has a tricky habit of varying almost as much as the personalities of your little ones. This does mean it can make life a little challenging when trying to decide which size to choose!

At Animal Tails we decided to opt for a more generous sizing than you might expect to get with other labels, particularly some continental brands.

Our boys T-shirts are designed to be a loose traditional cut, but our girls T-shirts are meant to fit more snugly. So as a rule of thumb if you child is more petite for their age it might be better to size down. Below is a sizing chart to help guide you.

Buying a gift

If you are buying an Animal Tails T-shirt as a gift, we do recommend asking from the parents what size to go for! If this isn't possible and you need some advice, please don't hesitate to contact us at info@animaltails.co.uk and we shall endeavour to assist. However, even if after this the gift still isn't a perfect fit don't worry we will be happy to exchange it for a different size.

Washing Guide

We recommend Ecover for washing your beautiful Animal Tails T-shirt in, and preferably at a low heat (environmentalist recommend 30 degrees centigrade).  However, after extremely messy fun has been had, then they can be washed in water up to 40 degree centigrade.

Tumble Drying

We don't recommend tumble drying your Animal Tails T-shirts.  Apart from the environmental point of view (tumble driers tend to be rather excessive on energy consumption), but also the heat can cause shrinkage and fading, and potentially damage the beautiful screen print, and in the longer-term may shorten the lifespan of the T-shirt. 

Ironing

Always iron your T-shirt inside out to protect the screen print.
