Wendi Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 My 16-year-old only likes to wear super skinny jeans. He is outgrowing his 29x32s; I suppose a 30x34 would fit great, but this size seems impossible to find. 30s only seem to come in 30 or 32 length. Any suggestions where to look?

PuddleJumper1 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Ds17 is a 30X34 or 30X36 depending on the cut. We've had good success at a local western wear store. He's also found a pair or two of Levis in those sizes at the mall - I believe in JCPenny. Tall and thin is not easy to fit that's for sure. ETA - we've also found 29X34 and 29X36 at the Western store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kim in Appalachia Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Levi's, and the best place to find that size is online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest inoubliable Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Old Navy. We find 30x34 there for DH all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AK_Mom4 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 We find those sizes at American Eagle - even in super skinny. Old Navy too. When DS16 needed a pair of black dress pants, we ended up buying them from the Gap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HollyDay Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Old Navy JCPenney Gap You might try Landsend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErinE Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 For casual wear, try Land's End. They have a wide variety of waists and in-seams. Dh hasn't had much luck finding pants or jeans for skinny men at any store except the super-pricey ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wendi Posted December 2, 2012 Author Share Posted December 2, 2012 Thanks, y'all! Keep the suggestions coming. Old Navy online doesn't seem to have anything in his size, but we could try the store. We have AE in our mall, as well as JCP. So I'll check those out. I'm not sure if our western store has skinny jeans; I've only ever looked there for boots and clothes for me. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dory Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Wranglers at some western wear store. A wrangler comes in a lot of different cuts so it doesn't have to look western, but they come in a really wide range of sizes. All of my brothers and boys have worn them because they come skinny and long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostSurprise Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 I've never had a problem finding that size at JCPenney. Levis or Arizona carry that size normally. My brother is 28x34. Now that's hard to find. Not impossible, just hard. If your local store doesn't carry it, just ask them to order a pair (or two) in especially for him. The company usually has them, the store decides if its worthwhile to carry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy in NH Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 I've gotten 30x34s at Kohls. I actually just saw a couple of pairs at Walmart a few days ago, but ds didn't need any more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ELITEANDLOVINGIT Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Cool jeans? Aeropostale...great styles and prices typically. My nephew who has celiac is tall and VERY slim this is where my sister buys them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found several 30x34 jeans on Old Navy's website?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Rat Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Levi's for sure. I've seen a variety of sizes at Kohl's. Walmart carries Levi brand, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anabelneri Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Another vote for Lands End... you can order at Sears for free shipping anytime (or wait for a coupon by email, if you're on their list). But when you order pants, you choose the waist size and then tell them how long you want them to be. They do dress pants & jeans. Handy dandy! Oh, and we also found out (my husband is relatively thin & he's got long, skinny male relatives) that it helps to talk to the sales clerks about when they get shipments in. The more unusual sizes sell our quickly, particularly on the thin end because the teenagers snap them up so quickly. :) Anabel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anabelneri Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Thread steal here: a similar issue to the tall-skinny-guy-jeans, where do you find shoes for their long, skinny feet? Without spending $150 (especially since they grow out of them in a couple months). Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The company usually has them, the store decides if its worthwhile to carry. That's where my ds is headed. Sigh. He's wearing 28x32, with a belt to hold them up, but that length's time is borrowed. Every once in awhile I'll actually find a pair that fit him at Kohls, but I usually have to pass. They don't tend to mark them down, and he grows too fast to pay that much for them. I've pretty much given up shopping IRL for him. We don't have a western wear place around here, or I'd give it a try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lynn Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 I usually have to order jeans for my skinny ds. Kohls and Penney's have extended sizes on line that they do not carry in the stores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaz Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Levi's for sure. I've seen a variety of sizes at Kohl's. My tall, thin ds likes 505s. We just bought a pair of 30x34 yesterday at Kohls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wendi Posted December 2, 2012 Author Share Posted December 2, 2012 Thanks, y'all. I think I'll take him out to try some jeans on today. One of the problems is that he only likes skinny jeans, except for his one pair of boot cut jeans that he wears with his cowboy boots when he rides. And even on the Levi's website, many of the styles were not available in 30x34. So we'll try Old Navy, AE, and Aeropostale today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our local ON had a TON of stuff this weekend, sitting in piles on carts. They must be getting in new stock daily for the holiday shopping crowds.

Punks in Ontario Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Now, I'm in Canada, but I have two guys in 28-34 and some of them are too short. Here Old Navy doesn't even start to cut it. Bootlegger is where I've had the most luck with a few 30-34 Levi's at other places. Recently I was at a Big and Tall shop that had a few 30-36s available. That's going to be our next stop. I always just start with the sales people and ask for help. They know if we're wasting our time in their shop or not. And yes, I've tried to find pants in MI but haven't found a good place yet. I'll have to try American Eagle or Aeropostale. They both eat well, but I wish they'd put on a size or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
