Gymboree sizes

(Boys) true to size or buy a size up or down?

L is just above average height/weight for his age.  He is in gymboree shirts size 2T, otherwise they look too short.  Pants he fits the length for 18-24 months, but they are too tight in the waist for his cloth diapers, so I have to go up a size and roll them up.  For their body suits, again his cloth diaper skews the size and he would have to wear a 3T.  I think they have a size chart with inches for height/waist/hips/head.  So you could try that.

DS has lots of gymboree and I think it runs larger compared to other brands.  I buy his shirts one size larger than pants.

I agree.

I know girls runs a bit big (wide and long) for the stated height/weight range. Boys looks like it does the same.

I think Gymboree runs big.  My DD will be 4 in May.  This spring, she will be wearing 2 pairs of capris that still fit in the waist (elastic) and finally fit properly in the length, that are a 2T.  TWO!!!  She is about 36 inches tall and 31 lbs.

My DS turned 2 a couple weeks ago and is still in 18-24 month tops.  He is just moving into 18-24 month pants and can still wear a few 12-18 size.  I will probably begin moving him into 2T tops soon because of length.  

In my personal experience, the pants are extremely long and the tops run short and wide.  

It's all a crapshoot LOL.
