Clothes for a tall skinny toddler

DS is 14 months. On his waist 9-12 months trousers still fit perfectly but are far too short. But 12-18 just fall down.
Does anyone know of any shops that do clothes for tall slim kids?

I always found Next slimmer fitting.

H&M? (well they're good for tall slim girls so I'm assuming same for boys)

Interested in this thread?

Next are good, otherwise I ended up taking in the waistband on trousers (and still do now DD is nearly 5)

I had/have the same issue with my DS. I bought custom made leggings- pricey but good quality and bonus is they have fun colours and are super comfy. Lots of places do them but my fave is biddyandbear.com
You can specifically say 9-12 month waist but 18-24 month length for example.

H&M, the jeans are always slim with long legs. Perfect fur my nephew, but no good when passed onto my chunky-legged DS.

Also consider things like girls' jeggings – my DDs wear these like normal jeans. Leggings also stay up better than joggers or looser jeans – Sainsbury's and some others do them in the boys' section, or just pick your colours/patterns from the girls'. Dungarees also stay up, although DD2 (a few months older than your DS) considers undoing the poppers to be a fine motor skills exercise, so we mostly avoid them.

Fab, thank you everyone! I hadn't even considered taking the waists in 🤦‍♀️

A lot of scandi companies do tall slim clothes. Expensive but lots of 2nd hand groups out there.
