Frequently asked questions

How do I choose a shirt for a celebration that is practical for my child?

First check movement around the shoulders and the fastening across the chest. Your child should be able to sit and raise his arms without gaps opening between the buttons. A well-positioned collar and sleeves of the right length help create a smart appearance. The occasion does not call for an excessively tight fit or awkward details.

Should I choose a long-sleeved or short-sleeved shirt?

Consider the season, the venue and whether another garment will be worn over it. Short and long sleeves suit different temperatures, but composition and thickness remain important. If you intend to turn up the sleeves, check whether the construction makes this practical, rather than basing the purchase solely on the way the shirt is styled in a photograph.

Which details show that the shirt is the right size?

Look at the shoulders, room around the neck and length at the wrist. With the buttons fastened, the front should lie smoothly without pronounced stretching. Also check the back when your child brings his arms forwards. Checking the fit with the shirt buttoned is more useful than trying it with the front open or sleeves pushed up.

Should the shirt be worn tucked in or untucked?

This depends on the length and shape of the hem and the look you want. If tucked in, it needs enough length to avoid coming out repeatedly as your child moves. For a more relaxed look, see how it falls over boys' trousers. Avoid too much excess fabric gathering at the waist when he sits.

How do I combine a shirt with a jumper?

Choose a shirt that does not form large folds under the knit and see how the collar sits at the neckline. With boys' jumpers, allow room for the shoulders and sleeves of the inner garment. Try both together so that bulk does not gather at the underarms and the top layer can be removed easily when needed.

What should I check when choosing a linen or other woven shirt?

Read the precise composition, as a reference to linen may mean a blend rather than a single material. Examine the washing and ironing instructions and consider how often it will be worn. Care that fits your daily routine is part of the choice. Payment in up to 12 interest-free instalments and locker delivery are available for your purchase.
