Get the right fit and keep the shirt looking great with these sizing and care tips for the Kids Lifestyle ID T-Shirt from K9 Tactical Gear Inc.

Quick answer

Measure your child's chest and high point shoulder (HPS) to find the right size, then wash the shirt inside out in cold water and tumble dry low to preserve the print.

Why sizing matters for this shirt

The Kids Lifestyle ID T-Shirt is designed for everyday wear and reflects the look of K9 Tactical Gear's custom ID panels. Getting the size right ensures the graphic sits well and the shirt is comfortable for active kids. The brand uses HPS (High Point Shoulder) and bust/width measurements, which differ from standard age-based sizing.

How to size and care for the Kids Lifestyle ID T-Shirt

  1. 1. Measure the high point shoulder (HPS): Place the tape measure at the highest point of your child's shoulder (near the neck) and run it straight down to where you want the hem to fall. This gives the shirt length. A shirt that is too short will ride up; too long can look sloppy.
  2. 2. Measure chest width: Wrap the tape measure around the fullest part of the chest, just under the armpits. Keep the tape snug but not tight. Add 1-2 inches for a relaxed fit if your child is between sizes.
  3. 3. Compare measurements to the size chart: Use the HPS and chest measurements from the product page to choose the correct size. The X Small shown in the photo fits a smaller child. Don't guess based on age—growth patterns vary widely.
  4. 4. Wash inside out in cold water: Turn the shirt inside out before washing to protect the printed design. Use cold water and a gentle cycle. Hot water can shrink the shirt and fade the graphic.
  5. 5. Tumble dry low or air dry: Dry on low heat or hang to dry. High heat can cause shrinkage and crack the print over time. Remove from the dryer while slightly damp to minimize wrinkles.

Product details

  • Kids Lifestyle ID T-Shirt: Black: Sizing uses HPS (High Point Shoulder) measured from the highest point of the shoulder to the bottom hem, and bust/width measured across the bust 1 inch below the armhole. You need to take these two measurements rather than relying on age or height alone to get a good fit.
