ASDA launches budget £4 t-shirts, but the sizing has angered shoppers

Supermarket giant ASDA has found itself in hot water thanks to one of its latest clothing announcements. The supermarket giant has been hit with complaints about the range, which features dinosaur designs from the new Jurassic World film.

ASDA is stocking a range of jumpers, t-shirts, two-pieces, accessories and bedding with Jurassic World designs on them. The range starts at £4 for a t-shirt, and goes up to £15 for a backpack or duvet set.

ASDA shared the collection with shoppers. The supermarket said: "Hands up if you know a dino lover who’d love the latest Jurassic World collection Heading to watch it this week? Shop their movie ready favourites."

Some shoppers loved the clothing and accessories, and couldn't wait to snap it up. But others were left perplexed that the sizes only go up to age 7 - despite the film being a 12A.

Parents were annoyed they couldn't buy clothes for their little ones, and others just want adult sizes stocked in supermarkets.

Marie Skinner said: "Shame they don't go past a 7 year old when the film is a 12A. So frustrating trying to find stuff for daughter who loves Dinosaurs now she's out of kids sizes!!" Sulee Hall responded: "I know exactly how you feel ! My 8 year old is just coming out of 7-8 but there's naff all over age 8 for girls!"

Jon Davis asked: "Why can't you do more in Adult Sizes????" Emma Benson slammed: "Why is it all for kids?!"

Laura L Gregg said: "Excuse me why are these only in children's sizes?" On a different note, Kayleigh Manson quizzed: "Why no girl stuff?!"

Manchester Evening News has approached ASDA for comment.
