Terrible waist, not wearable
I bought size 2, and the waist is wrong/huge. You can see it in the picture, the waist is shaped wrong - the waistband is as wide or wider than the legs and there isn’t elastic to gather the waist in. These don’t fit and never will. She won’t “grow into them” since they’re proportionally wrong. This is the first primary product that we’ve had issues with (we’ve been customers for years with older children).

Granddaughter Loves Dresses
Got a size up for next year, she loves them under her dresses. Very comfy and modest for the playground.

inconsistent length
the only reason I would have ever noticed this is because I bought two sets at once. The orange/pink/white and the yellow/green/blue. The YGB is a whole inch shorter than the OPW set. So I guess people don’t realize this if they only bought one set at a time. But the longer set I LOVE. It’s not weird and long like a lot of shorts can be but also not with a tiny inseam making them look borderline inappropriate.

A good decision
Even though they run a bit small . Good quality for a five year old.
