Boden Children's sizes for an adult?

6 replies

I really want one of the girls long, wool coats in grey, I'm 5.4, size 8 and can usually fit into teenager size stuff but have no idea what the sizes are like in the older kid's Boden sizes.

Can always send it back if it doesn't fit but do they come up big or small? I suppose the arms being too short would be the main problem and whether or not it goes in at the waist like adult long coats do.

The duffle coat?

Yep that's the one.

My children are younger than the size you are looking at, but I find that the tops come up small, eg for my (small) 6 year old I buy 7-8.
The trousers I find come up big.

Try about age 11/12 I would think.

ThePregnantPhantomPlopper · 08/08/2009 20:08

Yes will try 11/12, just read the reviews and they come up big.
