Quick Answer
The Getting Figgy With It Infant T-Shirt runs true to size for most babies, with a relaxed fit that allows room for movement. Use your child's current weight and height rather than age for the best fit.
Why Size by Weight and Height Matters More Than Age
Babies grow at different rates, so relying on age alone can lead to a shirt that's too tight or too loose. The Getting Figgy With It Infant T-Shirt is designed with a standard infant silhouette, but checking your child's measurements ensures a comfortable fit that lasts longer.
Fabric and Fit Trade-Offs
The shirt is made from 100% combed ring-spun cotton (heather colors include polyester), which gives it a soft, lightweight feel. While it's pre-shrunk to minimize shrinkage, some natural fiber shrinkage may still occur after washing. If you prefer a looser fit or plan to use the shirt for several months, consider sizing up.
Frequently Asked Questions
What sizes are available for the Getting Figgy With It Infant T-Shirt?
The shirt comes in standard infant sizes, typically from 0-3 months up to 24 months. Each size corresponds to a weight and height range printed on the tag. Check the size chart on the product page for exact measurements.
How do I measure my baby for the right size?
Measure your baby's chest around the fullest part and their length from the top of the shoulder to the bottom of the diaper area. Compare these numbers to the size chart. If your baby is between sizes, choose the larger size for a more comfortable fit. Always use a soft measuring tape and measure over a onesie or diaper for accuracy.
Will the shirt shrink after washing?
The shirt is pre-shrunk, so shrinkage is minimal. To preserve the fit, wash in cold water with similar colors and tumble dry on low or air dry. Avoid hot water and high heat, which can cause more shrinkage.
Is the shirt suitable for babies with sensitive skin?
Yes, the 100% combed ring-spun cotton is soft and breathable, making it gentle on sensitive skin. For heather colors, the polyester blend adds durability but is still comfortable. Always wash before first use to remove any manufacturing residues.
How does the fit compare to other infant tees?
This tee has a classic, relaxed fit that allows for easy movement and layering. It's not as snug as a bodysuit, so it works well for active babies. If you prefer a more fitted look, you can size down, but most parents find the true size offers the best balance of comfort and room to grow. For a longer wear period, especially during growth spurts, sizing up is a practical choice.
