Michelle T Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 My DS is 13, around 5'8", weighs around 105 lb. The only pants I currently can find that fit him are made by Arizona, he is in a size 18 slim. But of course, he will soon shoot out of these, and I need to find some other brands that will be slim enough, but tall enough! So, those of you with slim, tall boys.... where do you find pants? To make it more complicated, my guy will ONLY wear black jeans, and not faded ones, either. I had no idea a teenage boy could be so picky about clothes!

DarlaS Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 Try Lands' End. They go up to 20 slim which fits my 5'10" 110 lbs teen. They fit a tad loosely (but not scandalously so! :D) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandy in TN Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 Levi's Vintage Straight 539 These run quite slim through the hips and thighs, but they aren't tight like the girly, skinny jeans at Hot Topic. Middle 15yo ds has several pairs of these in W28 L30. He must wear a belt or his older brother can pants him no problem. Other than the waist, which I have given up trying to fit, they look really nice. DS is running 110 fully clothed. If he wore his jeans as tight through the thighs as his older brother, he would look like a very thin girl wearing leggings! LOL HTH- Mandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barb_ Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 Here: Aeropostale has sizes starting with 27/30 and have a variety of fits. You can get some really good prices with them, particularly if you shop the clearance racks in the back or head to their outlet stores. I've gotten some screaming deals along the lines of $2 shirts and $6 jeans there. Barb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarlett Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 My 9.75 year old weighs 79 pounds and is taller than any boy his age. As tall as many 11 and 12 year olds. I buy his jeans at Old Navy...Levis are never long enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michelle T Also, if you go to Amazon.com...head over to Men's Apparel. You can search for Jeans, then on the left side, choose black for color, then the size. You can start as low as a 26 waist. There are tons including Levi's, Lands End, and brands you don't even know exist. Now that your son is so tall, you are going to have to begin the transition out of the boys department. You don't say whether he's your oldest, but I'm guessing he may be? It's always a shocker when that happens for the first time :) Barb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss Marple Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 I was finally able to find a pair of Levi jeans 29 x 34 for my tall, skinny guy. Who would have believed that the Army Surplus store keeps these in stock!?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
