Skinny Kid Sweatpants

amyjoy18

Anyone have any recs for sweatpants for tall/skinny kids? All of ours seem to run shorter than jeans/leggings.   DD hit a growth spurt and any of her sweatpants are too short.  She was in a size 5, but I fear if we move to a size 6 they will be falling off of her. 

I avoid stores at all costs between Thanksgiving and Christmas, so I'll be ordering online.  Slim jeans work well, but I can only get her to wear jeans about once a week.  The rest of the time she's been wearing leggings, but those don't seem warm enough for some of the temps that are coming our way.

Old navy has some fleece leggings (my kiddo also is a legging addict . Those might be worth a shot!

I don't know about girls sizes, but I always had the best luck for Noah with Carters sweat pants.  They fit his super skinny waist perfectly.

Madeline is a skinny kid and the Old Navy fleece leggings are the best warm option for us along with the fleece lined jeans from Baby Gap.  I will say the Old Navy fleece leggings are nearly as thick as the fleece pants for baby but still warmer than leggings.

I struggle with the same thing.  I have to take in the sides of all of dd's sweatpants.  Right now she is pretty close to needing a 6 length wise but she is the weight of a 4 year old (at age 5.5).  I got a pair on clearance at lands end that fit her really well.  They are more of a yoga pant though.  Carter's always seems to run short on her.  She does have a size 6 Oshkosh that I did not have to take the waist in on.
