Does anyone know where to get skinny leg school trousers for 13 yr old boy? M&S don't do them anymore and the BHS slim leg are Charlie Chaplin style?

have you tried Debenhams? we've bought slim boys trousers there before for dd1 as they fitted better than the girls when she was about 12-13 (we had issues as she's not allowed proper skinny fit trousers and didn't have any hips to hold wider ones up!)

My DS's legs are thinner than my DH's arms his knees are wider than his thighs he's taller than average and has a tiny waist and very narrow through the hip all of which is weird as he eats me out of house and home!? The M and S ones have always been too big so I now only buy the John Lewis Boys' Polywool College Trousers mix you can come down to a smaller size at 15 he wears a side 13 but the long ones remain long enough so they fit pretty well and last well too.

Is this what you mean by Charlie Chaplin style

No. Just checked and they are not there Sad. The skinny ones are ridiculous with a really massive top and then skinny legs. The other ones were just slim up and down.

I got some lovely ones for ds from Asda in September but they sold out quickly. They had a pocket on the leg but were really slimline and look great on him as he is skinny! Don't know if they are back in now.

Oh no! I loved those M&S ones! Watching with interest.
