DS1 is 15 and probably about 6ft 1 or 2. For the last school year he’s been wearing age 16 school trousers from Sainsbury’s which have been great, but they’re probably a bit short on him now.
Anyone got any tips on the best shops to go for school trousers for him? I need charcoal grey. I tend to use H & M for his non school stuff as I refuse to pay for decent stuff when he’s grown out of in 6 months, plus he’s not at all fashion conscious so isn’t bothered about having the right brand. Although, actually, I assume his growth speed is slowing down now, and I don’t mind spending more on decent school trousers that he will wear every day, as he will get the use out of them.
I don’t rate M and S stuff now at all because their hems on EVERYTHING always seem to come down after a few weeks because they use that cheap machine stitch that is very loose and catches easily then just unravels. I had a Next pencil skirt which did the same thing so maybe their quality is going the same way.
