RE: Speaking of Jeans.....

[Guest guest]

Does anyone know where they have extra slims? I know funny question but is growing out of his 10's but even they are to big around the waist and he has to wear a belt. Any place make skinny jeans for boys or 10 longs? We have the hardest time finding jeams for him. We try not to do the Walmart jeans if possible. So far our favorites are South Pole but they are so baggy. We also like OTB but they have the button hole that is so hard for him to get he has alot of accidents. We love the adjustable waist band too but hates them! He says the excess waistband (because we have to make them so small to fit his tiny waist) hurts him.

It's so hard to find jeans for him, we buy alot that are to big and then have someone take them in but they have to cut out the material because he has such sensory issues everything that is bulky "hurts" him and then we cant hand them down to anyone after that. Anyway if anyone knows of any great stores that have long skinny good jeans for boys please share.

I found 16 slims, w/ the adjustable elastic and button inside the waistband, at Walmart for $8.50. They did not have 18s, but I got all the other sizes I needed for my stairsteps; 12, 14 and 16.

GapKids online carries slim pants and jeans up to size 18. I don't know

if they are " extra slim " but the original fit jeans in slim are

definitely skinny!

If doesn’t mind jeans that are more traditional

looking, Wranglers have a slim. If those don’t work, try

Rustlers. They are even slimmer than Wranglers and cheap too!
