Need Reco for Brand of Pants for 11 Month Old

I like to buy my clothes from the Children's Place because on a lot of their waistbands, they have a system to cinch things in tighter with buttons and elastic. When your child grows, you can gradually let out the waist band. Hope this helps!

We have a bunch of the Carter's pants, they are really long, and the waist is smaller. They actually still ride really low when my son wears disposables, luckily he usually wears cloth diapers, and those help them stay up better. My son is really thin (10th percentile or less on the weight chart, at least 75% on height). It is hard to find long and lean pants, but those seem to work pretty well for us.

I like Childrens Place or Old Navy pants with the adjustable waist for both my kids, especially my son who is long and lean.

My girls were both lean too. I tried to buy mostly pants with the adjustable waist inside. OshKosh, some Target pants, and Children's Place have them. Gymboree does too, but only in sizes larger than 12 months, I think.

And...we have quite a few pants with safety pins in the back that I never got around to putting in extra elastic!

My daughter is taller than thick and all her jean pants have adjustable elastic inside the waist. Levis are made with it as well as nearly every other jean pant. I find them more often than not.

Hi, I had the same problem try the Childrens Place and Walmart and Target their pants have the adjustable waist tab. My son is 7 and he is 4ft7in so I have to buy big sizes to get the right lenght.
Good Luck

Old Navy has great pants. They are made with adjustible waist bands so you can buy a bigger size to fit in length then just tighten the waist. Great quility also.

Walmart has the longest pant sizes that I have run into. I have noticed that I have to hem or just fold his pants as soon as I buy them. By the time the length fits (if I just fold and not hem) the waist barely fits. Good luck.

HI!
Gap original fit run on the lean side. They have adjustable waist too. Janie and Jack has adorable pants and the five pocket jeans run leaner than any of their other pants they carry.
I think that I put Zutano and Hanna Andersson Wiggle pants on my little one until he wore size 18-24 mos.

Good luck! I do love the way the legging-type pants look on younger boys (under two years old) esp. paired with baggy t-shirts, hoodies and sweaters. Pair them with high top shoes too--Converse makes a size 2 high top and are soft for pre or early walkers. Pediped and See Kai Run Smaller also have some adorable foot wear to make the leggings look more "boy"

try old navy pants they have adjustable waistbands in most of their pants. SOme carter's pants are the same way.

Hi. Gap and Levi make pants that have adjustable waists. I buy a year or two older and adjust the waist. You'll roll up the legs for only a short time..... good luck!

hi L. -

I feel your pain! I had some 'long and lean' kids too! I usually went with overalls...or used suspenders...or made pants!

Kids suspenders are hard to come by...but adult ones (adjusted to smallest length) worked at some point too!

Good luck

My 2 year old has the same problem. His 24-month pants fit in the waist tightened with the adjustable buttons, but they are getting short. Carters seem to work well when he first moves up a size as they seem to run slim but they end up way to short by the time they fit well in the waist. Target, Osh Kosh and Old Navy are cut to wide for him even with the adjustable waist. The Childrens Place seem to work for a while but they end up too short also. I'm headed to the mall to check out Sears (thank you to the person who suggested that one). Good luck!

what about the GAP..they have adjustable waist bands inside their pants.

I'll just add that my experience with Old Navy is that they do run lean (I don't recall the adjustable waist- atleast for girls). I had to stop buying there cuz couldn't fit my girl's cloth diapered booty in the pants.
I've had a couple pairs of Baby Style knit pants that are very long for the size, but not adjustable waist.

Hi L.,

My son is tall and skinny too. We mostly buy Gymboree pants - certain styles come in Slim and they have adjustable straps inside as well. If they don't have the slims in the store you can almost always get them on line. My son just turned 7 and he is outgrowing his size 8 pants and wears a size 3 shoe. We've also had some luck getting pants at Sears.

Hope this helps!

L.,

Old Navy toddler pants have the adjustable waist band. My son is very thin too and those have been consistently good. If you shop the sales they aren't too expensive.

My world... welcome to it! lol My son could wear 12 month clothes if they were long enough. The clothes are made for fat babies. There are some at target with adjustable waists and those work to a certain extent... but even those i have to roll over at the waist. The other trick...overalls!

my daughter is almost 3 and the same way. i buy carters and osh kosh brand. try those i love them :)

I don't know what brand they are but my son is also long and lean so when I look for pants for him I look for the kind that have adjustable waistbands on the inside where you pull the elastic and button it as tight as you need. Sometimes the adjustable part isn't obvious unless you look inside. For church, I bought my son some suspenders. Good luck! :)
