School shirts for tall teen boy

6 replies

If you have a very tall teen boy where are you buying school shirts from?

Usually buy from TU Sainsbury's but he's outgrown the age 16 he wore last year and all larger sizes are out of stock anyway.

I've ordered ate 17 from Next but bloomin heck they are pricey and 17 is the biggest they do.

He's going into year 10. Sainsbury's only go up to age 16 anyway. If he grows much more we might struggle next year.

Hi I have a 6ft 4 15yr old so uniform is always an issue. Thankfully Ds prefers short sleeves so I buy Tesco men's short sleeved white individual shirts. They are more expensive but washed well last year.

Asda men’s multipack shirts are good value for tall, skinny schoolboys. DS1 wore these in Y10 and Y11.

I've just picked up Next shirts and they are very long!

M&S do long length ones that my 6ft 14y old wears.

second getting the extra long ones from M&S, skinny/slim/regular fit choices

M&S. The age sizes only go up to 16 but still in the childrenswear they go on to a neck size so no VAT. Useful to know if searching online by age.
