Parent FAQs

What size should I order?

The pants have an elasticated waist that stretches comfortably, and the striped top has a relaxed fit through the body. If your child is between sizes or on the taller side, size up — the cuff panels at the ankles will still sit neatly, and they'll get more wear out of it. Returns are easy if the fit's not quite right.

Can they wear this over regular clothes?

The top and pants are designed to be worn as the outfit (not over other clothes), but the pants go on easily over underwear or a singlet. The suspenders clip on last, so no wrestling with straps while dressing. The gloves and beret slip on in seconds — this one's genuinely quick to put together on a busy morning.

Care: Hand wash striped top separately in cold water to prevent colour bleed. Air dry all pieces. Spot clean beret and gloves as needed.
