Buying children’s clothes and shoes seems straightforward, until a T-shirt fits differently after a few washes, a hoodie turns out to be too tight or sandals don’t leave enough room. Parents often focus on colour and brand, when it’s sizing, material and care that determine whether a purchase is practical.
In this guide from the Joybuy Product Recommendation Officer, you’ll find out what to look for in clothes for babies and children, from baby T-shirts and boys’ clothes to girls’ pyjamas, children’s sweatshirts and boys’ sandals.
Age labels are a useful starting point, but they don’t guarantee the right fit. For example, size 62 may fit differently from one manufacturer to another. So check the body length in centimetres and, where available, chest, waist and hip measurements.
For example, Chicco’s size chart for children’s long-sleeved T-shirts ranges from 44 cm for newborns to larger sizes for children. The product information says size 62 corresponds to around six months, but always check the current product page.
‘Cotton’ doesn’t tell you everything about the fabric composition or care requirements. One garment may be made from 100% cotton, while another contains 95% cotton and 5% elastane. That small difference can affect stretch and fit.
For clothing made from organic cotton, it’s also worth checking which certification or supporting information is mentioned in the product details. According to Tommy Hilfiger’s product description, some garments are made from independently certified organic cotton. This is a product claim made by the brand; don’t assume it automatically applies to all Tommy Hilfiger children’s clothing.
The colour and style of children’s sandals are easy to see, but fit matters more. Check the size, recommended age and the space around the toes. A sandal that looks good but is too tight isn’t a practical choice for everyday wear.
Also check the difference between textile and synthetic materials. The Chicco Conner Sandals are listed in the product information as made from 80% polyurethane-coated material and 20% polyester. Other Chicco sandals in the selection are described as made from 100% polyurethane-coated material. So compare the product specifications rather than relying on the model name alone.
Follow these steps when choosing:
Babies grow out of sizes relatively quickly. According to the product information, size 56 is intended for newborns up to three months, while a similar Chicco set is also available in size 62 for around six months. Check your chosen size carefully before ordering.
The material composition helps you compare products fairly:
The material alone doesn’t tell you how long a product will last. The washing temperature, drying method and ironing advice can all affect its fit and appearance. So always follow the care label.
Think about when the garment will be worn:
Why it suits this profile: This two-piece set is a straightforward choice for parents looking for an everyday outfit for a young baby. The product information lists size 056, a recommended age of 0 to 3 months, and a composition of 95% cotton and 5% elastane.
The size, recommended age and material composition are clearly stated. That means you don’t have to rely on the colour or model name alone.

Why it suits this profile: A classic long-sleeved T-shirt for parents looking for a simple garment that can be worn on its own or as a layer. According to the product description, the fabric is made from 100% organic cotton.
The description states both the fibre composition and that it can be worn as a layer or on its own. This makes it easier to compare than a vague sustainability claim.

Why it suits this profile: These dark blue sandals are aimed at parents looking for a specific size. The product information lists size 260, a recommended age of up to three years, and a material combination of polyurethane-coated material and polyester.

We’ve put together a complete, up-to-date list of products that meet these strict selection criteria and the applicable European safety requirements.
Measure your baby’s body length and compare it with the size chart on the product page. Use age only as an additional guide. For clothes for babies and children, also check chest, waist and hip measurements where available.
Cotton is a popular choice for T-shirts, pyjamas and sets. Elastane can add extra stretch. For clothing made from organic cotton, check the specific product information and any certification mentioned. Always wash the garment according to the care label.
Check your child’s foot length and choose the corresponding size for that style. Once the sandals arrive, they should fit securely without pinching. Make sure there’s enough room around the toes and check that the fastenings can be adjusted properly. Age recommendations are only a guide; foot size is what matters most.
