Inseam: with shoes on, measure from the top of the inside of the leg (crotch) to the floor, then subtract 1/4". Or, you may take a pair of pants that fit well and measure from the crotch seam to the bottom of the pants, that measure will be the inseam.

Oxford Shirts and Blouses

Neck: measure around your child's neck, add 1".

Chest: measure around the fullest part of the chest and around the shoulder blades. The tape measure should go under the arms. Note that the chest size on the chart is the actual measure of the material so you should add about 7" to the measurement of your child's chest so that the shirt will blouse around their body (you may add more than 7" if you want them to wear it more loosely around their chest).

Sleeve Length for Long Sleeves: with the elbow bent, measure from the center of the back of the neck, over bent elbow, to wrist, add 1"

Sleeve Length for Short Sleeves: not an important measurement as long as neck and chest sizes are accurate. Refer to the appropriate sizing chart for boys and girls shirts to determine the correct size, please note that the charts are different for boys, girls and style shirts.
