OSH KOSH sizings

Am watching an Osh Kosh jumper for Ds on ebay, they have age 2 and 3 and i'm not sure which to get.

Ds is nearly 3 but still in age 2 for trousers and most tops.

Is osh kosh sizing pretty similar to elsewhere or bigger/smaller ??

I find it comes up small, so would definitely go for the age 3!

Hi - I love oshkosh stuff for dd and find that it is a little on the small size - e.g dd has been wearing the 12 months dungarees since she was 10 months.

Yep, definitely small.

I believe OshKosh like most US sized children's clothes are meant for the age up to what it says on the label eg. age 2 (up to 2), age 3 (up to 3) and so on.

I used to keep DS' stuff from America until he got to that age and discovered half of them were tight on him.

I would differ with these comments in that I find their sizes usually larger than UK counterparts. It depends on your child too I suppose, DD is a very small just turned 4 & I would buy 2/3 here & similar in US sizes. She got some jammies & a top from relatives in US for her birthday & they're age 4 but she'll be about 6 by the time they fit her TBH.
