Youth baseball pants are usually sized from XS to XL. As a general guide, youth S fits around ages 6 to 8, M around 8 to 10, L around 10 to 12 and XL around 12 to 14, but height and waist matter more than age. Check each brand’s size chart before ordering from our boys’ baseball pants.

With open-bottom pants, you can tuck the extra length into his socks or wear them knicker-style. Avoid pants that drag under his cleats, which can cause trips on the base paths.

Boys’ sliding shorts protect his hips and thighs when sliding, and most include a pocket for a protective cup, which many youth leagues require.
