Parent FAQs

What size should I order?

The tunic runs roomy through the body with raglan-style sleeves that extend into tentacles. If your child is between sizes, we'd suggest going with the smaller option — the loose fit is part of the design, and you don't want them tripping over excess fabric. The hood has elastic around the face opening for a secure, comfortable fit.

Can they wear this over regular clothes?

Absolutely. Slip it on over a t-shirt and black leggings or pants (not included). The tunic is lightweight enough that they won't overheat, and the center-back closure makes it easy to get on and off. Perfect for a full school day without fuss.

Care: Cold hand wash, hang to dry. The tentacles hold their shape best when air-dried flat.
