Kids clothing size ?

[hass2001]

So a size 4T is not the same as a girls size 4 is it? I thought these jeans looked a little big. I bought a gift for my cousins 3 year old daughter and she is size 4T.

I feel foolish

4T is a lot smaller than size 4. My 11 year old cousin wears size 4 jeans. Don't feel bad! I'm so confused by kids' shoe sizes. Why is a 12 smaller than a 1? Makes no sense!!

Yeah, sizes confuse me. Shoes are really bad for me.

Then also, is 2T the same as 24 months?

YES! They're so horrible!

2T and 24 months is not the same. My 2 yo needs size 4 for height. I also just bought him a 5/6 coat and it isn't that big in length on him, his hands aren't covered by the sleeves. Now I could fit 3 of him in it, but nearly perfect for height.

Shoe sizes: he's currently in an 8 or 9. The go to 12 then start at 1 like a clock. Newborn shoes start at 0 and increase until 12 then like a clock at noon, after 12, comes 1 then increase to our adult sizes. I imagine back in the day whoever came up with this didn't see size 13+

You so smart, kkfeb! But isn't there a kids size 13 too?

[kkfeb04]

Well hot damn, that blew my theory out of the water. Forgot about kids size 13. I think I skipped that size.

[kkfeb04]

New theory, the guy couldn't count past 13.

H is somewhere between 4T/5T. Yet the 24 month T-shirt I put on her this morning fit just fine. You can't win with this shit.

Some 24 month and 2T clothes are the same. I think 24 month is a little wider to accomodate a diaper.
That's my 2 cents.

Agree that they are close, 2T is slightly larger? We skipped 24 months and went to 2T for adjustable waist option with DS1.

Not sure about 4T vs 4, I refuse to look at the big boy section... If I stay with 4T we can stay in the toddler/baby section and I can refuse to acknowledge how big he is getting!
