Has anyone purchased baby boys shorts or pants from tea collection? How is the fit? LO is 8 months and always wears a size up because he's a big guy & we cloth diaper. Currently he's in 12 month Carter's shorts & I'm wondering what size to order fr tea collection. Also - would you say that their pants and shorts are nice and stretchy/comfy? I've noticed some things from gap/old navy just don't have any give in the waste and are almost impossible to easily wear with cloth dipes.
Thanks.

We always have to go a size up in tea pants (LO is 70th percentile for height and weight). They're pretty slim, so I would make sure you can return them if they don't work over your cloth diapers.
As for stretch/give, I think it depends on the pants.
I hope they work - we always get compliments on his tea clothes!

I haven't purchased baby boy clothes for my DS, only as gifts. But I find the toddler pants sizes to be huge, but he is really skinny.

I don't have a boy, but I find Tea Collection runs true to size, maybe a tad big. In girls, anyway.

Always always always size up for boys' bottoms. A size 3T in Carter's is practically falling off of Wagon Jr. (age 4.5 but wears 3T generally) and 3T bottoms in Tea is super skintight, way too small.

@mrs. wagon: Wow, that's crazy. That wasn't my experience at all! I think it may depend on the actual item itself. Tea itself is pretty inconsistent from line to line.
