Kids Suspender Size Chart

Shopping for a ring bearer, picture day or a recital? Pick the child’s age, add their height if you know it, and the chart shows the suspender length to look for. You can print it to take shopping.

Tips for sizing kids

  • Height beats age. A tall six-year-old may need the next size up. If the child is close to 5 ft, use the adult size calculator.
  • Measure if you can. Run a soft tape from the back of the waistband, over the opposite shoulder, to the front waistband, then round up.
  • Clip-ons are easiest. Most kids’ pants have no suspender buttons, and clips work on shorts, jeans and dress pants alike. Look for smooth clips on thin fabric.
  • Buy early for events. Have the child try them on a week or two before a wedding so you can set the adjusters and swap sizes if needed.
