"tall and slim" toddler boy's clothing?

He's a bit on the tall side, but with a solid build -- no fat on him, but broad shoulders, etc. In the length he needed, LE pants simply fell down off him. They do have slims, which are quite slim. They also have many pants for boys that they will hem to order, so you can order by waist size and get whatever length you need. Best wishes, Ericka |

I'll add OshKosh to the list, though, as a brand that tends to run longer and narrower. What about Hanna Andersson -- I can't recall their fit. It has been my experience that Osh Kosh runs small all the way around. And they are a bit spendy. We have a HA outlet here, and their stuff does run taller and more slender, but unfortunately they only carry a bit of toddler boy's clothing. And I refuse to pay HA retail - that's just nuts. As for "cheapo" brands, KMart carrys a line of very cute clothing for boys called WonderKids that seems better-made than most, and the sales at KMart are incredible. I have, in the past, purchased canvas jean-type play pants for $2.50 or less. Their 3T pants run too big in the butt for DS, though the length is perfect. I don't know anything about their girl's wear. I have found 99% of Target's clothing to be just junk - I don't even shop there anymore except for paper products. I will look into Baby Gap and a few other places people mentioned - thanks for all the input! -L. |
