oneannm Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 I am in search of 5slim and 6slim jeans/pants. Online or offline Thanks
baseball mama Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 I get my son's slims at Old Navy, he's a little bigger than the sizes you are looking for, but I love the Old Navy slims. They usually have a good selection in the store. Good luck, it's hard to find jeans for those skinny kids!
Fishboysmom Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 (edited) Have you tried Sears, JCPenney or Kohls?I know I have/do purchase slims from them all the time. Just an example JCPenneyhttp://www3.jcpenney.com/jcp/X6.aspx?DeptID=42249&CatID=55405&GrpTyp=SIZ&ItemID=138723e&attrtype=&attrvalue=&CmCatId=42249|55128|55405 Kohlswww.kohls.com I can't post a direct link for some reason.Just click on kids, boys 4-7, jeans and then click where it says size+ Edited March 12, 2008 by Fishboysmom
jazzy442 Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 I always got my daughters from jcpenneys as well.
trbarginhunter Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 Old Navy, Land's End, some Targets, Nordstrom's Rack... Can you tell DD needed slims...now 00 or 0;) Tommya
dereksmommy Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 I have gotten slims that size for my granddaughter at Walmart
mom2monkiesx3 Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 MY DD is TEENY TINY TEENNY I mean she turns 7 on the 29th and weighs 37lbs TINY. The only slims that work for her that we don't have to cinch up the adjustable waist or use a belt is LEVI's girls slims everything else needs cinching or belts and we've tried EVERYTHING! I find the best selection at Kohl's but Levi is pretty universal HTH
nat1jen Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 I loved the slims at Old Navy and Gap because they came with an adjustable waist. I think that Target has started doing this also.
booga12345 Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 My oldest ds wears a husky and my youngest ds wears a slim . I find the biggest selection to be at JC Penneys.

erinplus3 Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 DD is a 5 slim and I've only had success with Gap so far, but I'll have to check out all the other places everyone is mentioning. Thanks for this thread! It's so hard finding clothes for kids in slim. My DD is almost 6 and she weighs 35lbs., so I know what it's like having a smaller girl. I'll have to check out the Levis.
JollyGG Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 On a related question. I can find my son slim jeans with alot of looking. Then I ususally still have to cinch in the adjuster. But where can I find slim dress slacks. My son is outgrowing his 6 slims and now needs 7 slims. He needs some new dress slacks for easter and my brother's wedding. The 6 slims were a rare garage sale find so I don't even know where they came from.
mom2monkiesx3 Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 I got my son's slim dress slacks at The Children's place online they were adjustable waisted too I LOVE Adjustable waist for my other 2 slim kids BUT for DD by the time you adjust it enough it leaves little marks on her hips So I learned to DISPISE adjustable waist and now EVERYTHING has them except Limited Too and we just use belts with her 6SLIM jeans from there! *And yes I KNOW she is tiny, her 4yr old baby brother outweighs her. But she is healthy and both DH and I are tiny too!*
racerfan Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 I have been living with 2 skinny kids DS12 and DD9. For DS I have always gotten pants for him at Sears. I get their dress slacks there too. They do have slim sizes. Old Navy is also good. For DD I get her pants at Childrens Place. They have slim sizes and it also includes the elastic adjustment too so it can get real small. My DD9 is about 45lbs so I know what skinny is. I have to say though that compared to what she was when she was born 2lbs 5ozs and at age one she was 10lbs. Good Luck. I know Childrens Place has some jeans right now for 9.99 ane under plus you can use their coupons.

They even had suit jackets that match. I have tried everywhere and Penneys seems to be the best by far. If you shop today (instore), they have a coupon worth 10, 15 or 20 percent off. I of course only got 10!
Kandy Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 My DS 12 is a size 10 slim, I get his at Sears, JCPennys or Kohls
RobD Posted March 13, 2008 Posted March 13, 2008 The Gap and Old Navy slim sizes have the adjustable waist band in them so I've found they were wonderful for my youngest. Gap also has the long and lean cut to boot so that helps. I've found that other stores brands aren't as "slim" as those even if they have a slim label. JCPenney and Limited Too slims have always been too broad for my skinny minnie :) I have also tried Abercrombie slims (because folks told me they were cut slimmer) but they were still too big. If you look in some of the dept. stores (Kohl's I know for sure) they carry some pants in the Mudd brand that are slim and have the adjustable waist too, along with the Levi slims. My youngest has always had to wear the slim size plus take the adjustable waist in 6 buttons on each side. I was always happy when short and capri weather came along so we didn't have to worry about the length :) When your DD gets a little older, remember that Aeropostale starts at a size 00 and they have short, regular and long lengths. My DD is wearing 12 slim capri's from Gap, size 14 slim jeans from Gap and 00 regular or longs from Aeropostale. RobD
Khecksel Posted March 13, 2008 Posted March 13, 2008 I have bought my son 4 slims and 5 slims in the Kohls store. they also had the adjustable waist band.
bayhaysay Posted March 13, 2008 Posted March 13, 2008 I like Old Navy slims with the adjustable waist for dd4 also.
oneannm Posted March 13, 2008 Author Posted March 13, 2008 Thanks All !! We don't have a JC Penney that close to us, but with spring break and the kids being out of school, we are taking a day trip to the mall with the JC Penneys in 2 weeks. I am going to have her try them on 1st.
Heather_0617 Posted March 14, 2008 Posted March 14, 2008 I would love to find slims in Toddler sizes. I do find the adjustable waist but my DD3 hates them, plus they look goofy all bundled up if they do work. She is 3 1/2 and is 29lbs. She has NO hiney! (but she does have a butt crack that we get to see all too often because of pants falling down) It is so hard to find a pant or jean that is long enough and fits her waist. Does anyone know of a place that makes 3T Slim?

Does anyone know of a place that makes 3T Slim?My DD3 (almost 4) weighs 25 lbs and is also very slim. We have had luck at Children'sPlace. The jeans are cute with adjustable waists, which really don't look all that bunchedup on her. Old Navy's pants run small, also. I was in there on Friday and saw that a lotof Spring and Winter items were 75% off, so you may get a deal there.
hannahs_momma Posted March 16, 2008 Posted March 16, 2008 I have found Kohls has the best kids jeans for some reason. My daughter is tall but skinny so their jeans rock for her!

They worked for a while with the 2T but the adjustable waist on the 3T (I need the lengh so need to move up) pulled all the way, are still are too big. Thank you for trying. She is wearing dresses or pants with no buttons, the cotton stretchy kind. Jeans are not easy to find for her.Thanks again.
mesarobins Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 Sears has slim sizes. My dd11 just barely tips the scales to 50 lbs so I too know about the need for slims and the adjustable waists that need to cinched to the farthest button to fit the waist and then they feel and fit awkward. My dd13 could still wear a 14 slim but prefers a juniors 00!
annmarie780 Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 I do a lot of shopping for both my skinny sons at Gap Kids but I do know that Gymboree also has a slim line. Maybe you can try there also.

Many kids are still kinda chunky through the toddler years and slim down as they get a little older so toddler sizes tend to have a little more room int he waist and butt. Also some kids in the 3T and 4T sizes are still in diapers so I feel the T sizes are cut just a little roomier to accomidate that as well. Or so it seemed to me. Try the XS in the girls section or see if the 4 slims in the girls section work. You may have to roll up the cuffs, but that's better than them falling down her butt. Edited March 17, 2008 by JollyGG
erinplus3 Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 I do know that Gymboree also has a slim line.I'm pretty sure that the slim line is only available online, but I might be wrong. I second the suggestion to go up to little girls sizes. I never had any luck with toddler sizes, because of all the extra room they give you for diapers.
