Ski trousers

Help! My son is very tall & slim & in need of some ski trousers. I’ve bought from Decathlon before as they’re not too pricy but he’s too tall for the kids range now. He’s 5’7/170cms but very slim waisted (currently wearing age 12 or 13 trousers for tall kids from Next). Please could someone point me in the right direction for ski or boarding trousers?!!

I get mine from tk maxx but km not a growing teen.

Might you borrow some if he's likely to be a different size next year?

Can you get him some Adult XS salopettes with braces and a belt?

Decathlon, but for adults! They should have adjustable waists (elastic and often with things that mean you can pull the waist in more). He can tuck layers in to pad the waist out too!

Should have looked before posting - had a quick look at Decathlon trousers and they have adjustable waists.

Protest trousers have velcro waist adjustors. My very skinny DH wears mine (not skinny) with no problem. Otherwise, salopettes work well and stop snow going up your back. I have Decathlon ones.
