"tall and slim" toddler boy's clothing?
Anyone know of any brands of Toddler pants that tend to run slim/tall?
DS (2.25) has such a skinny waste and long legs that most 2Ts are about 2 inches short, and the 3Ts are a tiny bit long but fall off his waste. His shoulders are wide and his tummy seems a bit thick; he's now wearing 4T shirts. Funny kid! Maybe he will be a swimmer... Thanks for any input! -L. |

Levi Strauss and Old Navy are two brands I can think of that carry jeans for toddlers with an adjustable waistband. This is a problem for us as well, because Mick is such a skinny boy. I just put darts in his pants, though. good luck lisa micksmom |

Baby Gap has pants with adjustable waistbands - on each side of the waistband (inside) is a piece of elastic with buttonholes and a button; you pull it as tight as you need and fasten it to the button. I know Gap is kind of expensive, but at least they fit. (And Gap has pretty good sales, IME). Clisby |

I had a tall skinny boy and the solution was the Land's End "climber" pants with elastic waists that can be cinched to whatever size is needed. http://makeashorterlink.com/?E16B2400D Banty -- |

I was able to find Wranglers at Sears in the slim sizes for him. Nan |

Children's place has pants with these elastics and buttons that allow you to cynch them down. My DS, with the same scene as yours, had good luck with them. Also I think Osh Kosh B'Gosh has a slim size. |

She needs a size 4 or 5 length depending on the brands, but can fit a size 2 waist. -- Dorothy There is no sound, no cry in all the world that can be heard unless someone listens ..

Children's Place boy's pants seem to all be adjustable waisted. If he's very slim, like DS used to be, Baby Gap had size slim adjustable waist pants. |

I haven't seen many girls' clothes that come in slims, but I have seen a number of girls' skirts that came with the button elastic adjustable waist. Also, for summer you can often find drawstring waists. If you get a skirt with an encased elastic waist, you can usually snip open the casing and tighten up the elastic. Just avoid the skirts with no casing and no adjustment, like knit skirts that zip and don't have an elastic waist. I noticed recently that Gap seemed to have quite a few drawstring skirts out, and Gymboree has button elastic in most of the skirts with fitted waists (and encased elastic for most of the others).
