I love Splendid - both for my children and for me. If you've never bought their stuff, this is a SUPER soft jersey with a great fit. If it was cheaper I would buy a bigger one, but this sweatshirt was $26 when I got it. I ordered a size 7 for my 8 year old. It suits him well and his build - he is tall and lean. Many of his shirts are short, but not only are they long, they fit better than some children's clothes. What I love about Splendid is how durable their clothes are. You wouldn't believe this, with their 'cracking' feeling, but we had things for our eldest son that we kept for our youngest, and then for our neighbors' children. We definitely justified our money by buying Splendid clothing.
