Are Boden toddlers clothes big/small normal sizes?

ds is just over 2 - but sometimes I have to buy 3-4 yo clothes. I like things to be baggy on him - not tight.
Boden is 2-3 or 3-4 - are they big made since they are kind of surferish type?

I find they come up big - but then I do have a very small 3 year old, who last summer was fitting perfectly in a pair of 12-18 month shorts from there & I think they will probably fit this summer too!

I would go for 2-3!

their trousers come up big whilst their tops are small.
dd is 3 now but she's been in their 3-4 tops since she was 2½. Only just out of their 2-3 trousers.

I shall try and get a tape measure round wriggly ds and see how he comes on their sizing chart.

the website now does garment measurements which should give you a very good idea.

I was going to say the opposite, lol, in that for ds (2.3) the 2-3 tops are huge and trousers are just a bit big. He's about average I think. So you'd better check those measurements. HTH !

You need to get 2-3 for your 2 year old; their clothes are big.

Often for dd (3 yrs)I buy age 4-5 in Next, Pumpkin Patch etc, but when I bought 4-5 in Boden she was swamped.

I might order both - as its free P&P and free returns.

they do seem to take a while with processing returns though. I'd look at the garment measurements and compare with clothes he already has.
