Help! Smart formal trousers needed for v. tall skinny boy

Aaargh! DS (just 16 and 6'2") has started 6th form and has to wear a suit and tie every day load of ridiculous pompous rubbish....-- Hmm He already has a couple of suits, but has grown so much in 6 months that the trousers are now halfway up his calves. He has a 32" waist and 35" inside leg. Blardy M&S are completely out of stock in ALL their formal black machine-washable (essential!) trousers in his size. Blardy Next start their Extra Long trousers at 34" waist.

I am also desperate for ideas for casual cargo / linen etc. trousers for him. Places like H&M and Topman seem to have 31" as standard length and DS is starting to look v.v. silly with Norman Wisdom stylee trews flapping above his ankles, poor kid.

River Island do a 34" leg with 32" waist here maybe that would be ok? Gap also have 34" leg options.
cotton traders do a 35" leg but are possibly a bit old fashioned?
