This guide is to help you chose the right size jacket for your little one.

This is Livy, she nearly 5 years old.

108cm in height.

In Wet Wednesdays Jackets she is still fitting in her size 4-5 years jacket, however she can get away with the next size up with some scrunching of the sleeves.

She is the average height for her age but has more of a slim build.

When looking at our size guide for your little one, we recommend getting their cuff to cuff measurement to get the perfect size jacket. This is also known as the Scarecrow Measurement.

The Scarecrow Measurement - Cuff to Cuff.

Cuff to Cuff Measurement1-2 years2-3 years3-4 years4-5 years5-7 years7-8 years9-11 years12-14 years

This measurement applies to our Outdoors Rain Jackets, Outdoor Fleece Lined Jackets, & the Fleece Lined & Unlined Scandi Jackets.

When buying a Jacket for Livy we want it to JUST cover her fingertips, when she does a scarecrow pose.

This will enable us to scrunch up the sleeve thus giving her plenty of room to grow.

So before you purchase a Jacket, check your cuff to cuff measurement by measuring from FINGERTIP to FINGERTIP.

You can see here Livy is wearing the size 5-7 years jacket. Here finger tips are just on the inside of the sleeve on her right arm.

Then on her left arm, we have scrunched the sleeve to show you it fits when the velcro cuff has been done up.

You can see here where she is wearing the jacket as the cuff to cuff measurement. So we can just see the fingertips in the jacket. Then we have scrunched the sleeves and tightened the velcro straps; which shows she still has plenty of growing room.

Size & Height Measurement

We always recommend trying on the waterproofs before assuming that they are too large. All of our outerwear is designed with room to play, bend and climb in mind.
