School now expects DC to wear dark leggings/joggers for PE 2 days a week (and all day as no changing) which means she probably needs some more as her current leggings (age 3-4) are around mid calf and starting to acquire holes, while being a comfortable and secure fit around the waist. I have yet to retire clothing due to width on this child!
Got some 5-6 from Sainsbury's and the length is perfect but they tend to make a bid for freedom and sag at the waist, this is more of a concern on annoyance grounds than aesthetics!
Joggers that tie at the waist are less than ideal as chances of being retied properly after the first toilet visit are zero! And are then more likely than leggings to make their way down to the floor!
Any suggestions for reasonably priced shops who do plain dark leggings for narrow but leggy children - Sainsbury's used to be my go to! Reasonable price due to high risk if acquiring holes in the knees!
Thanks!
