FAQs about Hanna Andersson Clothing

Question: How Do I know What Size To Buy?
Answer: When trying to determine your childs size, here are some very helpful sizing guidelines
Hanna Andersson still uses the European way of sizing by height in centimeters because it's easy and makes good sense. Since every child grows at their own pace all you need to do is measure their height for a good fit.There's no need to buy big. This can't be stressed enough! Hanna's clothes have plenty of growth room, so go ahead and order the correct size on the chart. Whether you choose an item that's prewashed or a new one that has shrinkage built in, every hanna garment is designed for a good fit with room for growth. How To Use The Hanna size chart:Just measure your child from the top of the head to the floor in inches, then use the chart to convert to centimeters. Height is the one and only measurement you need to order hannas - this is the KEY: measure the height for a good fit. (Weight may be helpful if a child is above or below average weight.) Age isn't nearly as accurate as using the height (since kids all grow at different rates!).

Answer: This is obviously a personal preference, your decision will most likely be based on cost, but if youre wanting to dress your children in Hannas and youre on a budget, here are some great things to know about Hanna clothing that makes buying used on okay a lot more appealing.
Hanna claims quality high enough to hand down from sibling to sibling, and even to cousins and friends, making okay a great place to pick up gently used Hannas that you will likely be able to re-sell yourself when they are outgrown. They've discovered that even after several washings and lots of play time, the colors are still as bright, the fabric is still as soft and the knees and elbows haven't given out. The simple styling and ease of care make these ideal for hurried moms of today. They are gefortable enough for lounging around in but they are stylish enough for school and weekend wear as well. I often find that many of the patterns of the long johns can be worn not only by my daughter but then handed down to my sons as well-because they tend to be bright colors which I feel are gender neutral.

Question: What is this oko-tex stuff I keep hearing about?
Answer: Oko-Tex (sounds like echo-tex) is a process that tests for over 100 harmful substances! To give you the more official description, ko-Tex Standard 100 is an ecological certification process. Many clothing manufacturers in Europe have used this safety testing for a very long time, Hanna Andersson has pioneered the use of it in America. They feel strongly that is should be used because it's an exciting ecological process with a pretty large ripple effect. The "testing" is absolutely scrupulous every fabric, button and thread of the garment must undergo exhaustive tests of over 100 harmful substances to achieve certification, and be retested regularly to stay certified. This labor of love brings together a diverse group of vendors for every garment that Hanna offers this ecologically concious attitude has had a ripple effect in the garment industry across America. This oko-tex testing is important to many families and especially those with children whose skin gees into direct contact with every garment they put on these precious little bodies.
