Shorts made for playtime

Looking for a pair of shorts that are comfy and not restrictive? Something designed with play in mind - that's running, jumping, rolling, climbing, dancing... as well as sitting (!), and snuggling in for cuddles and storytime. Shorts that work across your little one's wardrobe? Classic but contemporary? Stylish? Unisex?

Our new black play shorts are the answer!

These play shorts are made from our signature super soft cotton, with just a touch (5%) of spandex, so that they wash and wear as new, with their intended stretch snapping back into place after every laundry cycle.

Modelled off our longer drop crotch shorts, with an elasticated waist, slim cut, drop crotch, and the cutest roll cuffs, but designed instead to sit at a mid-length, just above/on the knee. Plus, these play shorts feature internal side pockets for all sizes, from 3-6M (just think of those cute baby photos with hands casually in pockets!) all the way up to 8Y.

Our black play shorts are made for play, and made to last.

We make all of our kidswear with sustainability in mind, so you'll be able to hand these shorts down to a younger sibling (or family member, friend, or your fave local op shop!) once your little one outgrows them.

Designed in Australia, and ethically made in China.

SIZING GUIDE

HOW DOES IT FIT, YOU ASK?

Well, thats a very good question!

Every brand is different and its often hard to figure out what size is best for your little one. Especially if you are new to the brand! 

If you haven't shopped with us before, then welcome!

We want to take the mystery out of it for you! So, instead of just offering up a page full of measurements, we have also included a brief run-down of how each garment has been designed to fit, to allow you to make the most informed sizing decision for your little one!
