Mango kids size chart

1. Measure your child's height without shoes, standing against a wall.
2. Find that height in the Height column, or enter it in the size finder on this page. The size on that row is the one the brand's chart gives for that height.
3. If the height is at the edge of a range, or between two sizes, look at the other measurements the chart lists, such as chest, waist and hip, and compare them with your child's. In the Outgrow app you can enter your child's measurements and get a full size check.
4. Age labels are only a guide. Each size on the chart is listed with a height range.

Mango's age labels against the typical brand's

In Mango's table of age labels, the typical range for a label is the median lowest height and the median highest height of that label across the charts compared, and the difference is the middle of Mango's range minus the median of the middles of those charts' ranges. Charts compared is the number of brands' charts in our data that publish the same label and count towards these figures. About the same means a difference of 1 cm or less, slightly lower or slightly higher means more than 1 cm and less than 2 cm, and lower or higher means 2 cm or more.

Mango's chest, waist and hip against the average at the same height

Mango's figures are the average difference, over simulated children, between Mango's chart and the average of the charts in our data that give the same measurement at the same height. About the same means less than 0.5 standard deviations of all brands' differences away from their average, slightly wider or slightly narrower means 0.5 to less than 1 standard deviation, which is within the usual spread, and a clear difference means 1 standard deviation or more, the level the study uses. Brands compared is the number of brands whose figures for that measurement enter the comparison. The figures compare chart measurements and say nothing about how clothes fit.

A size covers a range of heights, not one height. The wider the range, the further apart two children in the same size can be.

On Mango's chart, 13-14Y covers 12 cm (152-164). Two children in this size can be 12 cm apart, so check the measurements as well as the label.

The step is the height difference between one size and the next.

Mango's sizes follow the common 6 cm steps (5-6Y covers 110-116 cm), so a size covers about the same heights as at many other brands.

Height is the main measurement on most charts. Some brands also publish chest, waist, hip or inseam, which allow a child's own measurements to be compared with the chart.

Mango publishes chest, waist and hip, so you can compare more than height.

Shoe sizes as published by Mango. They are not part of our comparison of 72 brands' size charts, and the brand can change them, so check the brand's own chart before buying.
