Guest guest Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 Have you tried Old Navy? I'm short (according to my husband I'm a shrimp) and I get the " short " style. I get all of his pants there because they are 1. affordable, 2. they wear like crazy (he's a typical rough and tough boy) and 3. They actually have styles that fit him right (and no they are not the kind of pants that people wear the waist around their knees).

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 We have found some knit elastic wasit leggings in a denim fabric that look somewhat similar to real jeans, but are comfortable.. think from Pennys, but have seen them around other places as well. Not as cool as the popular skinny jeans, but then again, doens't have a skinny jeans figure!

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 I always have to cut and hem.....several inches off anything...jeans, sweat pants, or dressy pants. I even cut and hemmed the sleeves of a suit for graduation.....getting over my fear of doing it after I got an estimate from an alterations lady. Hope you can sew....or know someone who can. A few stores do alterations...or have someone they refer you to. I like granny's idea.....cut and let fray. Hope you can find something that will work.

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 We purchased jeans that fit Nick in the waist and then we found a seamstress who matches the stitching, thread color, etc on the hem of the pants. I can't tell that they have been altered she does such a nice job. My husband and I always joke that if we give Nick's pants to Goodwill someone would buy them thinking they are the length that is on the tag Harmon Mom to Nick and Noah both with Down syndrome Colorado On Mar 3, 2010, at 2:13 PM, Hancock wrote: > Hi Everyone, > So, my older daughters kept KZ for 5 days and tried to shop with her > to purchase some new jeans...no luck!!

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 Have her wear dresses? ; ) Unfortunately, same problem. The plus sizes for girls take care of some of the difference in length between the waist and legs, but the legs are just too much shorter for anything to work once you get up to 16s. At 4’7” (measured generously), Jess has over ½ foot of extra and rolling them up just didn’t suit, so I dug out the sewing machine and chopped. You can usually just measure from the heel to where they need to be cut, mark, add about 1 ½”, and use a ruler to trim them evenly so you don’t have to do the pins in your mouth and antsy teen dancing around asking if you’re ever going to finish. Then turn up and up once more and stitch down like the originals usually are. The straighter the easier, and by the time we chop off what needs to be, they’re all usually straight because the flares at the bottom are what gets cut off. Sometimes the petite ladies sizes will work too, but they are usually just not right somehow in the fit. Stretch seems to work better, especially a stretchy waist (not available in the “lowride” styles most of which aren’t very appropriate anyway). Cropped are still around, especially for summer, but they tend on Jess to be about an inch or so too short for jeans and a lot to long for cropped. She is lobbying for alterations on one pair so they are the right length for cropped! Good luck and let me know if you find an alternative—I don’t mind sewing, but on the other hand, if I can avoid… Judi From: [mailto: ] On Behalf Of Hancock Sent: Wednesday, March 03, 2010 4:14 PM Subject: JEANS FOR TEENS Hi Everyone, So, my older daughters kept KZ for 5 days and tried to shop with her to purchase some new jeans...no luck!!

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 That's funny about goodwill, I've thought the same thing about Caty's clothes I've donated. I'm lucky she is petite, and nicely preportioned but even she has a thicker waist I guess. I didn't really realize until I was tryng to buy a prom dress on line and I measured her and according to the chart her bust was a 4, her waist was a 10, and her hips were a 2. I get a kick out of her having to turn in her color guard uniforms. Don't know where they will find a 4ft.10 flag, but good luck!

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 is 25 years old..... 4' 11 3/4 " - just a quarter inch shy of being 5 feet tall... weighs about 125......and she can usually find boys jeans with elastic waists that fit her.... she has a really small waist compared to the rest of her, so without the elastic she is belting her poor jeans to death..... Actually, though - her pants of choice are sweats - or knit women's petite pants with elastic waist..... Here's a short movie of her in the local play at the Civic Theatre this last fall - cartwheels to splits and back up again. Silly girl!
