Hi
I want to buy a t shirt for my 9 year old grandson. The one I want (on Amazon) only sells in the xs, s, m sizes etc. Can somebody tell me what size a "small" would be please ! The size chart provided is no good at all. Many thanks.

Is it clear from the Amazon page whether 'XS, 'S', 'M' etc refer to child's sizes or adult ones? (i.e. does 'M' mean a medium child's size or a medium adult's one?). It will obviously make quite a difference!

There's a size chart link on the page. Of course you need to know what your 9 year old measures. Problem is it gives ages not size notations which is daft, and not overly helpful. Age is approximate, size should be defined.

Can you not ask the question to the supplier on the Amazon site ?

I note that the T-shirts are advertised as for 5 to 13 year olds. As 9 years is bang in the middle of that range a 'Medium' size might well be suitable.

By coincidence I've also been looking at buying a child's shirt online. It's a Sheffield Wednesday replica shirt (at the ridiculous price of £53) but the SWFC website is a little more informative when it comes to sizes, providing this chart:

Given that the age range is the same (except that SWFC don't offer an 'XS' shirt for 5-6yo kids), it once again looks as if 'Medium' is what you should be looking for.

Thanks for all the answers folks. Luckily I phoned Stand up to cancer today and they told me that the t shirts were not discontinued as previously advised, just out of stock ! I then ordered one in age 9 - 10.
Thanks agin for all the effort.
