BLUESEAPARADISE · 07/01/2018 18:20

I am trying desperately to find Bright and colourful joggers / leggings for my DS ( he has Autism and LOVES joggers / leggings / Trousers with bright colourful shapes / Patterns etc!)

AIBU to ask you where you got yours from?? Or know where to find them?

I have got him a pair from H&M ( blue ones with hot air balloons) and he loves them but I can't find anymore anywhere!

He is very small for his age so would be looking at toddler / young child size clothing!

I also don't want to spend a fortune if I can help it ..

Thankyou :)

What size would he take? Frugi is brilliant and has a sale on now.

torwen · 07/01/2018 19:02

Try polarn o pyret they have lots of leggings in lovely patterns and colours

Figuringitout · 07/01/2018 19:02

Have a look and 'boysandgirls' they are bright unisex prints and really comfortable and easy to wear.

Size 6-7 joggers in Mothercare (out of stock in other sizes): www.mothercare.com/joggers/little-bird-by-jools-navy-rainbow-joggers/LMB916.html

Asda often good forum plain bright joggers and very reasonable

PinkAvocado · 07/01/2018 19:03

Lots of WAHM pages on Facebook - Lottie and Lysh, Harper and Carter, Tobias and the Bear etc that make leggings.

TK Max often have Little Green Radicals clothing cheaper than anywhere else.

TU leggings/trousers in the ‘girls’ section. I’ve bought lots of really lovely jersey/Lycra trousers from here that have bright colours or funky patterns.

Scandi sites have lots but are often £££.

DandelionAndBedrock · 07/01/2018 19:03

Worth keeping an eye on Uniqlo. They still seem to have lots of wintery colours but normally pretty reliable for good leggings.

Glitterandunicorns · 07/01/2018 19:04

Frugi sell lovely brightly coloured and patterned clothes. To be fair, they're pretty expensive but you can usually find stuff on eBay.

I’d recommend looking into Scandi brands like Maxomorra, DUNS, little green radicals, JNY.

They tend to be sold through independent retailers. Someone upthread has recommended Babi Pur (who are amazing btw), but there are lots of even smaller retailers who stock too.

If Maxomorra appeals to you and you’re on FB, there’s an FB group called Maxomorra Addicts where people buy and sell Max second hand or brand new with tags that they’ve brought and not used themselves.
They also have links to all the recommended retailers so you know where you can buy from.

Maxomorra are due to release their new Spring/Summer stock in the next couple of weeks so lots of retailers have sales on currently, and will be getting lots of new stock soon.

Hope that’s helpful, and good luck 😊

Sorry can't seem to get the link to the grey ones with rainbow waistband to post but they are on the Litttle Bird website.

Boden have these. You can usually find stuff in sale or by using one of the promo codes on the money topic on here. You may also be able to pick some up on ebay.

WyrdSisterWeatherwax · 07/01/2018 19:47

I know it’s a bit pricey but do Boden still do them? I remember my brother wearing Boden jersey trousers in funky patters and they lasted years! The waistbands were really stretchy and they went from being baggy trousers to kind of cropped leggings as he grew. Probably had them from 2-6!

BLUESEAPARADISE · 11/01/2018 16:18

Thankyou so much everyone! I have ordered a few things from different sites to see which ones he prefers!:)
