Teen Boys' Shorts and T-Shirt Sets
Teen boys' shorts and T-shirt sets give him a matching summer outfit in one buy, ready for holidays, days at the beach and long school-holiday afternoons. MINOTI makes them for boys aged 8 to 15, in the older sizes. The two pieces are made to be worn together, but they work apart too, so one set covers several outfits over a summer.
An older boys' shorts and T-shirt set can be split up: the T-shirt goes under an overshirt or a zip-up top, and the shorts go with a plain tee. Wash both pieces together so they fade at the same rate, and turn the T-shirt inside out to protect any print. Buy shorts for his height now rather than a size up, because shorts that are too big hang past the knee and look baggy.
Your questions answered
MINOTI makes the teenage boy shorts set as a matching T-shirt and shorts for boys aged 8 to 15, for summer holidays and hot days, in centimetre sizes based on height.
What size boys' shorts set fits age 9?
Most 9-year-olds take 140 cm. If he is tall for his age or near the top of that height, go up to 146 cm so the T-shirt is long enough in the body.
How many shorts sets should a 12-year-old pack for a week away?
Three sets cover a week if you can rinse one out midweek, or pack four if there is no washing machine. One set can double as his travel outfit, and a 12-year-old usually takes 158 cm.
