Boys' Polos, Ages 2 to 8
MINOTI polos for boys aged 2 to 8 sit between a T-shirt and a shirt. They have a knitted body with a collar and a short buttoned placket at the neck. They suit days that call for something a little tidier, like family lunches, parties or photos, and they work just as well at nursery or at the weekend. For plain T-shirts and long-sleeved styles, see T-shirts & Tops.
Choose by his height rather than his age. A 3-year-old usually takes 104 cm and a 7-year-old usually takes 128 cm. A polo should sit fairly straight, not cling, and the collar can be worn open or buttoned to the top. On cooler days, layer one under a jumper with the collar folded out. Wash it inside out to keep the colour, and check the care label on each piece. For older sizes, see Teens.

Your questions answered
MINOTI's boys' polos are collared knit tops with a buttoned neck for boys aged 2 to 8, sized by height in centimetres, and a 6-year-old usually takes 122 cm.
Which polo size fits a boy who has just started Reception?
Children start Reception at 4, and a 4-year-old usually takes 110 cm. If he is tall for his age, go up one to 116 cm so the polo still fits by the summer term.
Can he wear a polo under a jumper in winter?
Yes. A polo under a crew-neck jumper, with the collar folded out over the neckline, makes a smart layer for colder days. Buy both in the same size, for example 116 cm for a 5-year-old, so the jumper sits comfortably over the polo.
