How are Bibs Sized?

Published in Apparel Sizing 2 mins read

Bibs are sized differently depending on whether you're referring to bib overalls or baby bibs. Here's a breakdown:

1. Bib Overalls (Workwear/Adults):

Bib overalls are typically sized like trousers. This means the key measurements are:

  • Waist: Measure around your natural waistline.
  • Inseam: Measure from the crotch down to the top of where your pants will sit on your shoe.

2. Baby Bibs:

Baby bib sizing is generally based on age ranges. However, the fit can vary significantly between brands. When selecting a baby bib, consider:

  • Age Range: Most bibs will indicate a suggested age range (e.g., 0-6 months, 6-12 months).
  • Neck Size/Closure: The neck opening is crucial for comfort. Look for adjustable closures (snaps, Velcro) to accommodate different neck sizes. Consider the material around the neck to avoid irritation.
  • Coverage Area: Consider how much coverage you need based on your baby's messiness level! Some bibs are larger and offer more protection.

Key Considerations for All Bibs:

  • Brand Variation: Sizing can vary significantly between brands, so check size charts or read reviews when purchasing online.
  • Adjustability: Look for features like adjustable straps or closures to ensure a comfortable and secure fit.
  • Material: The material can affect the fit and comfort. Softer, more flexible fabrics may be preferable, especially for baby bibs.
