George at Asda is one of the UK's most shopped children's clothing brands — not because it's the most fashionable, but because it's everywhere, it's affordable, and for basics, school uniforms, and everyday playwear it genuinely delivers. If you have kids in the UK, George is almost certainly part of the wardrobe rotation whether you planned it that way or not. George is one of 38 brands in our complete kids' clothing size chart.
Sizing at George is mostly straightforward, but there are a few quirks worth knowing — particularly around the waist (which runs generous) and leg length (which runs short). This guide covers the complete official George size charts for babies, toddlers, and kids, the key fit quirks parents consistently report, and how George compares to Next, Primark, M&S, and H&M.
Does George at Asda Run Small, Large, or True to Size?
George generally runs true to size in height, but generous in the waist and short in the leg — this is the consistent pattern UK parents report, particularly for older kids' trousers and school uniforms.

George School Uniforms
George at Asda is one of the most widely used school uniform brands in the UK alongside M&S and Next — the combination of price and wide availability makes it the default for many families.
How George Compares to Other UK Kids' Brands
| Brand | vs. George |
|---|---|
| Next | Next runs slightly smaller and more fitted. George is more generous in the waist. If your child wears Next, go up half a size at George for bottoms. |
| Primark | Very similar sizing. Both run true to size in height with a generous waist. Primark's leg length is slightly more consistent than George's. |
| M&S | M&S runs noticeably larger — particularly in baby and toddler sizes. Mumsnet parents consistently describe M&S as "massive" compared to George. |
| H&M | H&M uses European sizing (cm-based) and runs generous overall. H&M and George are similar in generosity — a George 5–6Y is roughly H&M 116 (5–6Y). |
| Sainsbury's TU | Very similar to George overall — both true to size in height, both generous in the waist. TU's leg length is slightly better proportioned than George's. |
| John Lewis | John Lewis runs generous, similar to M&S. Noticeably larger than George in practice. |
How Long Will George Clothes Last?
George's generous waist actually helps longevity in trousers — children grow into the waist rather than out of it, which means bottoms in particular tend to last well. The short leg length is the more common limiting factor.
| George Size | Average Wear Time |
|---|---|
| 0–3 Months | 6–10 weeks |
| 3–6 Months | 2–3 months |
| 6–9 / 9–12 Months | 3–4 months |
| 12–18 / 18–24 Months | 4–6 months |
| 2–3 / 3–4 Years | 6–9 months |
| 4–5 / 5–6 Years | 7–10 months |
| 6–8 Years | 9–12 months |
| 9–11 Years | 10–14 months |
| 12–14 Years | 12–16 months |
Frequently Asked Questions
Does George at Asda run true to size?
Generally yes for height — the age labels are a reliable guide for most children at average height. The main quirk is that the waist runs generous and the leg runs short, particularly in trousers and school uniform bottoms. For tops and basics, George is reliably true to size.
Does George run big or small compared to Next?
George runs slightly larger than Next — Next is more fitted, particularly in the body and waist. If your child wears Next, they may need to go down half a size at George for bottoms. For tops the difference is smaller.
Why are George school trousers too big in the waist?
This is George's most consistent sizing feedback — the waist runs generous across their range, particularly in school uniform trousers. The adjustable waistband on most George uniform trousers helps significantly. If your child is lean and the adjustable waist is still too big, Next or M&S school trousers may be a better fit.
Are George baby clothes true to size?
Mostly, with one notable exception — the 12–18 month range runs generous. Several parents report their average-sized child staying in George 9–12 months beyond the usual age. For babies at or below the 50th percentile, size down one in the 12–18 month range.
Does George do Slim fit kids clothing?
George does not currently offer a dedicated Slim fit range for children the way The Children's Place or Gap does. Given George's generous waist, this is one area where leaner children may find the fit less satisfactory. Next or H&M are better options for slimmer builds.
How does George sizing compare to H&M?
Both brands run similarly generous in the waist and are roughly true to size in height. George uses UK age-based sizing while H&M uses European cm-based sizing, but the actual fit is comparable. A child in George 5–6 Years is typically in H&M 116cm (5–6Y).
