DS is 6'3" and 10 stone.
I cannot find anywhere on line or in store that sells skinny black jeans in size w30" L36".
All his trousers are above the ankle.
I have scoured TKMaxx, Topman don't seem to go longer than 34length and Primark say they do 36" but I have yet to find a pair.

He doesn't wear uniform at sixth form, unless you count black skinnies as one 
.
i've looked at Debenhams and XL are only available in size 34"w upwards.

That's the problem. Next does a longer length but the waist starts at 34". 
They don't expect anyone to have a long leg and small waist.
Formal wear for 6th Form for DS1. Can't decide whether I like it or not.

They describe it in the rules as 'formal wear'. They all look very smart TBF,and quite different in the range of colours etc but around here it does seem to be jeans and hoodies in Year 12 so DSs school have decided against that for some reason.
DS1 is officially a 28" waist so a belt is always necessary.

Shame about the belt Sparkling. It kind of defeats the object of skinny jeans if they have to be held up. .
I've looked at Uniglo. Max length is 34", at least in size 30" waist.
It would help on these websites if you could search by size.
I had hoped there would be a rush of posters telling me lots of places I could buy long thin jeans. [disappointed].
DS has a new strategy. His drawer full of multi coloured socks have been evicted in favour of plain black in order to disguise half mast trousers.

Does it? They are still skinny jeans. 
It's a very nice belt.
YY to the plain black socks. I have told DS the pale grey ones cannot be worn.

myotherusernameisbetter Actually DS was a bigger waist at 15 than he is now at 17. As he's grown he's got thinner.He had a much later growth spurt than DS1 who was 6' at age 12 but hasn't grown much since.
It's ridiculous that no one makes these. No doubt all these skinny boys fill out eventually and can wear size 34" waist which seems to be when 36" length starts.
I hope he doesn't go for the half way down his bum look
