Why don't more shops do dungarees for older children?

I can understand when you're first potty training they might be a bit tricky, but I love my DS in dungarees and would love to be able to buy more pairs for him.

More often than not if I do find them in his size they have that frayed, worn denim look which I detest like these girl's ones and these boy's ones.

Probably because children don't like them. My son refused to wear them when he was only 2 years old.

Mine chooses them over anything else!

And mine. I don't think they are for babies. I think girls can get away with wearing them up until they start developing a bit. Boys probably up to age 8/9.

H&m had some that fit my 6 year old. So Santa brought him some from there. Tbh not as cute looks a bit more like a farmer. He loves putting loads of pens in the front pocket and go around "fixing" things?

Were they long ones?

I know this is from ages ago but when I tried looking for dungarees for my munchkins I stumbled across a fab website...dungarees-online.com. They've got soooooo many different dungarees and in a wide range of sizes! Found my munchkins great dungarees...hope this helps even though it's super late! :-)
