Where to buy boys long sleeve tops?

Can’t see much choice really as it seems that everybody thinks it’s still summer- well, not in Scotland anymore.

Can’t afford GAP,Joules,Boden and such, tops on ebay go for stupid prices (£5 for Primark top).

Can’t go to the shops, have to order online but where?

Any suggestions welcome

How old? I find h&m tend to have nice long sleeve tops for boys and they seem to have them online across the seasons.

Just looked in the boys 1.5-10yrs section and there quite a few long sleeve tshirts. Starting at about £2.99

RedTulip86 · 23/08/2018 11:24

6 yo. How is h&m sizing though? I found them a bit on the small side for adults but not sure how is their sizing for kids.

Umm my 3 year old is 9th centile and things come up a bit big.

My 1 year old is 50th centile and generally stuff is just slightly big but not enough to be a problem and leaves a bit of room to grow. They don't shrink enormously but definitely fit better after first wash and tumble dry.

H&M kids' sizing is small.

Jenala · 23/08/2018 11:28

Sorry I'm innundating your thread lol. I think their kids range is more generous than their adults. Returns are free i think.

I've bought a few nice ones from Lands End

Primary do long sleeve tops for £1.80, tshirts for £1.30. Sainsbury's is also good for long sleeve tops

PerditaMacleod · 23/08/2018 11:33

Sainbury's already have long sleeved things in, a 3 pack is £10 or less:

I like h&m but do find them small. The kids clothes cover 2years as well. My (tall) 6 year old is now in 8-10 which are a little large but 6-8 were too small.

umberellaonesie · 23/08/2018 11:41

Landsend.

We like h&m too for cheap and cheerful tops.

As for fit, ds is nearly 8 and has a long torso. Size 8-10 fits him well if slightly baggy. In a year they may look a bit short I think.

On the other hand ds2 age 5.5 is very skinny and looks lanky though isn't very tall really. The age 4-6 tops drown him, too wide.

It surely depends on body shape as to whether they come up large or small?

George at Asda have long sleeved also

KindergartenKop · 23/08/2018 11:52

Vertbaudet 3 packs are good.

jjemimapuddleduck · 23/08/2018 11:55

I like plain l/s tops for my wee boy in lots of fun colours. We get ours in Next, H&M & M&S.

dingdongdigeridoo · 23/08/2018 11:57

I’ve bought a few from George at Asda online. Quality is good.
