Help finding joggers & jeans for tall teenage boy

Usually buy Nike/Adidas joggers for DS but he's grown and they're not long enough. Even tried the adult sizes but they're too short.

DS is 13, 6' tall with 35" inside leg and 30" waist. Does a lot of sport so lives in joggers (more the polyester type ones rather than the sweatshirt material).

Does anyone else have a tall skinny DS and can point me in the right direction? We spent a very long day touring the shops yesterday without any luck for joggers. Managed to get one pair of jeans but they are borderline long enough and I would usually have passed on them but he was so despondent my heart melted. I know in a couple of months they will be too short.

This was a recent stupidly long arms thread, might have some tips.

Thanks @GoodGriefGordon we managed to get some PJs from Next men's tall range. Not the best choice for a 13 year old but went for plain blue and he's happy.

Did you try Hollister? Not cheap but they do a "tall" option.
