The 5% elastane is a game-changer—our toddler can actually climb and squat without the shirt riding up. The cotton fabric feels substantial but not stiff, and washing it three times hasn't caused any pilling or shrinkage. The 12/L fit runs true to size, which is rare for kids' tees.

The sleeves have a nice taper that doesn’t ride up, and the 5% elastane keeps the collar from sagging after a few washes. Our 18-month-old wears the 12/L with room to grow, and it’s held its shape through countless playground sessions.

The cotton blend has just enough stretch that my kid can actually lift their arms without a fight, and the fabric held up perfectly after the first wash. We’ve already got a second one on the way because the fit is so spot-on for our 3-year-old.
