Jeans for skinny guys?

[blondietink]

Sorry, no Gabriel Bros. even close. Would have to drive 6 hours or more.

Anyway, American Eagle online did have a couple of styles, but they were out of my budget, even on sale. I also went on Aeropostale, and found several choices within our budget and some dress pants, too. Now to only find some corduroys! We need them in the winter. I saw them on Lands End, but they did not have 20 slim. UGH! Only up to 16 slim. They do have a "slim fit", but they are way too big in the waist.

My DS, age 19, HATES skinny jeans. He needs room to run and sit cross legged. I did get some wrangler jeans, but they are size 29 waist. I will wash them and see if they shrink. If they don't I'll just have to take in the waist.

And the styles labeled "loose" are worse ... they make him look like he is emaciated when you see the outline of his skinny legs in those loose legs.

Glad I am not alone wanting jeans/pants that fit skinny guys. We should lobby the manufacturers so they make more for us.

It's my Hubby's size.. Totally impossible to find... 28 waist and 32 inseam.. I wish I had the problem And this man can put away food, let me tell you.. Everyone said, when you turn 30 your waist will get bigger, ok, 35 you'll expand.... 40 has come and gone and he's still the same size... Totally impossible to find his size, so very frustrating... But yet, they say we all need to slim down.. ummm maybe take a look at the clothes.. why lose the weight if you won't have clothes you can buy???

I know...the American Eagle ones are a bit high. I forgot to mention that if you dont mind used Ive found some good "lots" on Ebay. The lots are the best deal as only one shipping charge and often it is a mom trying to get rid of a bunch of their sons stuff at once, since they've outgrown it. Some of the stuff will often be in great shape and maybe some you have to weed out, since like a lot of kids they have some items they wear more of less than others. Good luck!

My 17 year old is 6' and 28x34...while he is not a fan of the *style*, Aeropostle does carry slim jeans in his size...otherwise I have ordered the levis mentioned by others. The Levi is not as slim, but will do. Basically, he lives in basketball shorts, even thru Chicago winters..I kid you not. He is not a fan of denim, and forget trying to find cargos that fit and are long. I have to throw stuff in the dryER so the waist gets snug enough, but then the length is too short so, yeah, basketball shorts it is. Good Luck OP!

Are you close to an H&M? I know they have pants in a 28 waist.

My DS is a 28x32 also. We get his jeans at pacsun. When they have a really good sale we stock up on them. Sometimes we can get them for $10 a pair! They are called bullhead. They aren't skinny jeans either. They are slim straight leg style.

Sorry, no H & M store around us. Never thought of Pacsun ... went to their online store and they actually have some in stock, although my DS looked at the sale ones and didn't like what he saw. They did have some corduroy he liked, but we didn't like the price! I'll keep an eye on those and see if they go on sale.

Thanks for the heads up!
