Kids' Bisht Size
There is no fixed kids' bisht size chart by age, because children of the same age vary widely in build. A child's bisht size is worked out from their thobe measurements in inches: front and back thobe length, shoulder width and sleeve length.
Why age doesn't work for bisht sizing
Two seven-year-olds can differ noticeably in height and shoulder width, and a bisht depends on shoulder, sleeve and length. Your child's current thobe is the most accurate reference, because it already fits them.
How to work out your child's bisht size
Pick a thobe that fits your child well.
Take four measurements in inches: front thobe length, back thobe length, shoulder width and sleeve length. See how to measure.
If the measurements are in centimeters, convert them with the cm to inch converter.
Enter them in the Precise Calculator, then send the result to SMW on WhatsApp in one tap.
A worked example from the tool
A child with a 35-inch thobe length, 12-inch shoulders and a 14-inch sleeve: bisht size 17 inches, khabn 36 inches, thobe circumference 40 inches, and the size needs custom tailoring.
Is a kids' bisht ready-made or tailored?
In Mqasy, any shoulder width under 16 inches is treated as custom tailoring, which covers most kids' sizes. That's why the calculator gives you every measurement the tailor needs, including back width.
A tip before ordering
Measure your child close to the occasion, since kids' sizes change quickly.
