Can't find any trousers!

Thought I was all organised, only bought DS new trousers in Feb, which still fitted in July but now they don't. I'm thinking that he is preparing for a growth spurt so might stretch out and get back into them at some point but need some others for going back. Everywhere is out of stock (tried Asda, next, M&S, Sainsbury). Any other places people use?

School are really strict on cut too, no skinny or slim fit which seems to be the norm now

Have you tried Matalan? That's where I got dd's trousers from.

Or maybe Tesco?

How about a local school outfitters or trutext online or John Lewis?

Our local tesco had loads the other day.

Tried online? M&S are delivering to me in the next couple days, though a few sizes and colours were out of stock.

Thanks all, matalan are oos too. Will have to have a look in Tesco and will have a look at John Lewis too. The school supplier are struggling with orders at the mo but will check them too.

I bought trousers and blazer on the John Lewis website a couple of days ago (NB the blazer's lovely!).

Just checked Very (again!) and the size I think I need has come back into stock, fingers crossed they fit now 🤞 thanks all

I had this panic last week but managed to get some (age 15 for very tall 13-year-old) at Sainsbury's online. All the older boys Next sizes were for delivery in 7-8 weeks!
