It is cut true to age and intended to fit closely to the body rather than loosely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fabric is tagless for comfort against the skin and colored with azo-free, non-toxic dyes. The shirt is ethically made in India. Because cotton shrinks after the first wash and dry, the garment is cut slightly long in length to account for shrinkage in the dryer; line drying instead of machine drying will help retain the original length if preferred.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCare is simple: machine wash warm and tumble dry low. Since the shirt runs true-to-age and already accounts for shrinkage, sizing up is not recommended unless a child is notably tall or large for their age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGOTS-certified organic cotton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTagless construction for comfort against skin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAzo-free, non-toxic dyes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEthically made in India\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMachine washable and dryable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCut slightly long to allow for dryer shrinkage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTrustScore\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTrustScore is Birch's proprietary rating, from 0 to 100, built from 50+ signals that reflect what actually matters to parents — safety, materials, recalls, certifications and quality.

Since cotton shrinks after the first machine wash\/dry, L'ovedbaby accounts for this shrinkage by cutting its clothing slightly longer than intended, so that they shrink down to the correct size. This applies to L'ovedbaby's kids and adult clothing as well. As such, L'ovedbaby does not recommend sizing up unless the wearer is extremely tall\/large for his or her size. If you find that you like the length of the garment prior to washing it, L'ovedbaby recommends line drying to retain that length. Otherwise, feel free to pop it in the dryer to shrink it down slightly to its intended fit.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eToddler\/Kids' Sizes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eL'ovedbaby's toddler and kids' sizes fit very true-to-age and are cut generously long.
