I have a 10 year old foster child who can still wear size 6 shorts and t-shirts. Eventually he got a little taller but super-duper thin. We're FINALLY down to a size 8 this year, but before that we were a size 7. The Levis slim fit performance jeans are the only ones he'll wear because they're really skinny and he loves the soft fabric their performance line is made of consists . Even size 8 has big elastic bands that reduce the waist, which will help your slim kids. I've searched and searched for strong, slim jeans with regular boots/regular cuts (no skinny jeans) and this is the best I've found.
