These tartan plaid fleece leggings print a classic red, navy and cream check onto a soft brushed fleece lining, giving a smarter, more traditional look than most of our other winter legging prints. It reads as considered rather than playful, which makes it an easy choice for school as well as for Christmas.
Tartan tends to work particularly well under a school pinafore, since the check picks up the same colours schools typically already use. If you are dressing for the festive season more broadly, our roundup of Christmas plaid outfits for kids has more ways to work the pattern into an outfit beyond just leggings.
What Makes These Leggings Special
The check itself is a fairly traditional combination, red as the dominant colour with navy and cream running through it, printed cleanly enough that it reads as a proper tartan rather than a rough approximation. It works well as a stand-alone print rather than needing to match anything else exactly.
Underneath, the leggings are lined with a thick brushed fleece that holds warmth without adding bulk, which matters for something that needs to sit comfortably under a school skirt or pinafore. You can read more about how this kind of lining compares to other winter fabrics in our guide to fleece in kids’ winter leggings.

Fabric and Quality
The outer layer is a stretchy blend of velvet, spandex and polyester, giving enough give for a child who spends the day running, climbing and sitting cross-legged on a classroom floor. Fleece-lined leggings and plain thermal leggings often get lumped together, but they are not quite the same thing, our fleece versus thermal leggings guide explains the difference if you are comparing options.
The elastic waistband sits flat rather than digging in, and the ankle cuffs are overlocked so they hold up to repeated washing rather than fraying after a few wears. Our guide to materials used in winter leggings covers more on how different fabrics and linings wear over a full winter.
Choosing the Right Fit and Style
These leggings run true to size, so it is worth measuring your daughter’s waist and comparing it to the table below rather than going by age alone, since children of the same age can vary quite a bit in size. Our size guide has more detail on how our sizing generally runs.
If you want a few ideas for building an outfit around a legging like this, our guide on choosing comfortable leggings for kids covers what to look for beyond the print itself, waistband height, seam placement and how much stretch to expect.
Size Guide
These leggings are available in six sizes, from 2 years up to 10 years. Compare your child’s current waist measurement against the table below before ordering, and allow a small tolerance since every measurement is taken by hand.
| Size | Waist (cm) | Pant Length (cm) |
|---|---|---|
| 2 years | 40 | 55 |
| 4 years | 42 | 60 |
| 5 years | 44 | 65 |
| 6 years | 46 | 70 |
| 8 years | 48 | 75 |
| 10 years | 50 | 80 |
Sizing tip: Allow a ±3 cm tolerance for manual measurement. If your child is between two sizes, sizing up gives a little more room to move and grow into.
Perfect for These Occasions
Tartan is one of the more school-friendly prints we carry, since the colours tend to sit comfortably alongside a uniform rather than clashing with it. Our guide on winter leggings for schoolwear and our roundup of popular school outfit combinations with leggings both have more ideas for building a winter wardrobe around a pair like this.
It also has an obvious second life over the Christmas period, red and navy tartan is a classic festive combination, so these can move from the school run in November into Christmas party season without looking out of place.
Comfort and Fit
A legging a child will not tolerate for long is not much use, however nice the print looks on the hanger. The elastic waistband means there is nothing to fasten and nothing to dig in when she sits down, which matters over a full day at nursery or school.
The stretch in the fabric moves with your child rather than restricting them, so bending, climbing and sitting cross-legged all stay comfortable. Our guide on the benefits of winter leggings for kids covers more on why this kind of fit tends to hold up better for active children than a stiffer thermal trouser.
