I bought this short-sleeved pilot costume in a size 2T-4T for my 2-year-old grandson at his 2nd birthday. It seems durable and seems to fit well. It has a tie sewed to the shirt to prevent choking. It has shoulderboard rank insignia. Rather than an American pilot's two or three stripes (Commander or Captain), it has two (Corporal) chevrons under a star. I've seen this shoulderboard on a Chinese steward.

The shirt from this costume goes nicely with another costume. I bought the other airline pilot costume with a long jacket and 4 stripes on the cuffs. That costume comes with a shirt dickie (collar and two buttons) and elastic tie. This costume's short shirt and sewed tie look nice under the Captain jacket of the other costume.

I bought my 3-year old grandson this costume in a 4T, because he is a little large for 3.
