Zara kids clothes sizing anomaly -no age 5-6

[Carycy]

Attempting to buy clothes for my 5 year old ( as well as 9 and 3year old).
The younger range has 2-3,3-4,4-5. So 4-5 is not presumably meant for 4 and 5 year olds if you go by the way they are ordered. Just age 4 up to 5. No one would by a 5 and a half year old age 4-5 surely?
The older range starts at 6 and is generally ordered 6,7,8 etc.
Did they just not fancy doing clothes for 5 year olds?
Taking on a chance on the age 6 stuff. But sure will be on the big side. Anyway I just thought I would register my annoyance and see if anyone else found it infuriating.

Age 6 is 5-6, 7 is 6-7 and so on.

I’m with you OP!

I didn’t know this @ScottishMummy12 I bet a lot people don’t either. Thanks though

Is it? Oh no just prefer my older one the wrong size then. Why is is so confusing!

I’ve always wondered this about the Zara site! Maybe it’s a Spanish thing.

Oh no I just looked back and the dress I got her is 6-7 years. Definatlry doesn’t start at 5.
I got my older one clothed that just say age 9 so they are prob 8-9. It’s so bloody confusing!

Excuse the typos!!!

Yep same here. Wanted to buy some stuff for my 5 year old. 4-5 will be far too small for her and likewise 6 too big

Age 6 is 5-6. I live in Spain and pretty much only buy from Zara and dd is 5.

Matalan do the same although have an age 5. I get so confused whether that's age 4-5 or 5-6

@ScottishMummy12

Age 6 is 5-6, 7 is 6-7 and so on.

This is nonsense! The age 7 is 7-8, the age 8 is 8-9! TBH I find it better to go by height now as that is consistent across everything, including foreign sizes.
