Kids Original vs Boxer: Which Fit for Your Child?

Quick answer

Choose the Kids Original for younger children who need waist-high coverage and modesty under dresses, or the Kids Boxer for school-age kids who want a more grown-up fit with a fun color pop.

Trade-offs to consider

• Coverage height: Original is waist-high on small kids, offering full bum coverage. Boxer sits lower, more like adult boxers. Choose Original for modesty under short dresses or active play.
• Age range: Original starts at smaller sizes suitable for toddlers. Boxer starts at medium (5-7 years). Boxer is not available for very young children.
• Style preference: Original has a classic brief-like cut. Boxer offers a modern, colorful look (e.g., Blueberry). Let your child's preference guide the choice.
