Product Fit & Sizing Guide
Because youths and teens come in a wide range of shapes and sizes, it can be tricky to find the right products.
How to Measure:
- Waist: Wrap a measuring tape around the natural waistline, about 1 inch above the belly button.
- Hip: Measure around the fullest part of the hips.
- Use the larger of the two measurements when selecting a size.
Sizing Tips:
- Check each product’s size chart. Some brands may run larger or smaller.
- If your child is between sizes, try sizing up for comfort, or look for adjustable tab-style briefs.
- For older teens approaching adult sizes, “Youth X-Large” or “Small Adult” products may offer a better fit.
Size Quick Reference (approximate guidance):
- Small Youth: 40–70 lbs
- Medium Youth: 65–85 lbs
- Large Youth (or "Youth XL"): 85–110+ lbs
- Adult Small: 100–125+ lbs (depending on brand)
Tip: For children with unique body types or sensory needs, refastenable briefs offer a more customizable fit than pull-ons.
