Buying kids clothes online

22 replies

Looked at my 12 yr old today and his clothes are all looking too small. He's just grown when I wasn't looking.

Where is the best place to order joggers and shorts and t-shirts right now? I usually go to Next but don't have the patience to keep trying to get a slot. They were full by 9.45 this morning. We're not going into supermarkets or I would probably just have bought from Tesco.
Any suggestions? We don't need anything fancy, just enough to keep us going.

I used Asda recently and it was fine, although one item didn't turn up, for which they refunded me

I use H&M online for my kids clothes.

IamChipmunk · 19/04/2020 21:42

Nutmeg by Morrisons have a website.
I ordered shorts for my ds when Next was closed.
Its good quality and washes well.
You could also try Tu from Sainsburys and Matalan. Although i dont think Matalan is quite as good for fabric quality.

H&M are still delivering but it's 10-14 days delivery. Don't know what the boys range for that age is like though as mine are younger.

ComeOnEileen11 · 19/04/2020 21:44

H and m, or Tu

NeverTrustASmilingCat · 19/04/2020 21:45

M&S?

Noworrieshere · 19/04/2020 22:03

I looked at H&M but saw they had a longer delivery time. I suppose everyone has.

Does Nutmeg go up to teenage sizes? There is a Morrisons near us but I'm not sure it has a massive range of clothes. I could brave it I guess, I've been avoiding supermarkets.

I ordered a few things from H&M to plug the gaps in the children's wardrobes the other day. It arrived far more quickly than I expected. If it's track suit bottoms and t-shirts you are after they have a good selection but size up a bit as it does often shrink a bit when washed. Proper ties on the waistbands of tracksuit bottoms though, which is great for skinny kids.

M&S

I have ordered for my 11 year old from all of the above recently.

I buy boys' clothes from Landsend. They are having a clearance sale right now.

Anthilda · 19/04/2020 23:19

Debenhams have a sale.

INeedNewShoes · 19/04/2020 23:19

Gap delivered really quickly and had a good range to choose from a few days ago.

They constantly have 'sales' which bring the clothes to reasonable prices.

NuzzleandScratch · 19/04/2020 23:21

I ordered some children's clothes from M&S recently and was amazed at the speed of delivery. It was something like £3.50 for standard, but £3.99 for next day, really impressed.

I had same problem with DD - had to order few things in for her as nothing fitted. Felt guilty about delivery drivers. Things took about a week.

I ordered some stuff from Ann's Cottage as they do nice surf summer stuff.

FrenchBoule · 19/04/2020 23:36

Land’s End? Good quality but a bit pricey

InkogKneeToe · 19/04/2020 23:49

I had the same problem with my DS. Ordered from Tu/Sainsbury's and paid a bit extra for next day delivery

InkogKneeToe · 19/04/2020 23:50

Their clothes are good quality and the kids sizes (mine is only 18m mind!) are on the generous side

Noworrieshere · 20/04/2020 12:26

I've ordered from Tu, I hadn't really considered them. And paid an extra £1 for next day delivery so hopefully they will arrive in the next few days, not expecting tomorrow but you never know

I’ve been using H&M.

VoyageInTheDark · 20/04/2020 12:47

I bought a few things from h&m for DD last week. It's not urgent so don't mind waiting the 14 days for delivery

drspouse · 20/04/2020 12:49

I'm just ordering from eBay, I tend to buy used anyway.

InkogKneeToe · 20/04/2020 17:39

@Noworrieshere mine came next day (well, I ordered it Thursday and it came Saturday but Friday was Good Friday)
