Slim fitting toddler trousers

[blamethecat]

DS has just turned 3, all his 2-3 clothes are too short but still pulled in a fair bit on the waist, I have tried age 4 (john Lewis) and the length is ok (turned up a bit) but the waist is huge. Where can I get decent quality jeans/trousers that are slim round the waist and ideally have popper opening not buttons that don't cost the earth as they will be trashed at nursery.

Primark do a range of trousers and shorts with 'functional drawstring' waists - ie the drawstring actually tightens the waistband rather than just decorative.

H&m usually come up long and thin.

Vertbaudet - their trousers are generally slimmer fit, but they also do a special slim range, that's really narrow.

Polarn o Pyret and me&i do slim fitting trousers which usually have waist adjusters built in.

Thenewaveragebear H+m also do drawstring waists and their jogging bottoms have really lasted very well for our DD. We bought her boys jogging bottoms because she needed navy ones for school.

Zara is good for slimmer children. Take a look there.

On second thoughts jogging bottoms isn't what op is after, sorry op.

I was also going to say h&m, their boys trousers are slim fit

H&M are good. And try french -Verbaudet, La Redoute etc. My ds is 9mo and a string bean. No Buddha belly etc. He's super long though (of the centiles) so I have to size up for length which means massive waists. I hate jogging bottoms etc but h&m leggings are lovely and fit him ok.

Next do a type called 5 pocket trousers/chinos. They're great for my super skinny 5 year old. Adjustable waist and popper at front.

The GAP toddler range is fantastic for slim kids. Size 4T is has the length of 3-4 but the waist of 2-3 years, maybe a bit smaller. It was the only place I found clothes to fit DD properly when she was small.

Fab thanks ! I will look in H&M at the weekend, he has some jogger type from GAP but again the age 3 are too short so will try the 4, looked at vertbaduet as he has some from there before but I kept getting stuck on the payment page so gave up.

John Lewis kids clothes have massive waists. I have a slim 2 year old and find Zara, Gap, Mango (just discovered they have a toddler range!), Vertbaudet and petite bateau all suit well.

Going to try some of these other brands mentioned here too.

Maybe try Debenhams as well OP,
