I love the City Threads shorts and leggings for girls and that they are made right here in the USA. The elastic band used to make the shorts and leggings is spot on, it's stretchy but stays put all day. I cannot tell you how many brands we've been through that use very firm elastic that pinches or makes my daughter's stomach hurt from the pressure. So a big THANK YOU to City Threads for getting that part right. Here is my opinion on sizing; when I first discovered City Threads my daughter was 4 years old but the size 4 was too tight fitting and the band was just a little too snug so I had to order the size 5. Now that my daughter is 5 years old we're ordering size 7 for two reasons. The first reason is that the size 7 waist fits well around the waist with a little room to grow without sagging at the end of the day. The second reason is that the size 7 gives her a loose fit around the thighs and buttocks instead of a traditional skin tight legging. Because my daughter has eczema we need a loose fit, because tight fitting clothing makes her sweat and that would cause more eczema. I don't feel the sizing needs to be adjusted, because I think any child without eczema would be just fine with the clothing the way it is, but I did want to share our experience to hopefully help someone else dealing with eczema.
