Tall Kids and Leggings

My daughter isn't that tall but she has a very small waist. We recently moved up to size 8 leggings which are ok on the waist but super short. I've tried Old Navy and the new Target brand and neither fit length wise.

Anyone have an recommendations for tall leggings for girls?

Did you try to go up a dize and see how the waste is? I feel with leggings it wouldn't be too big on the wast and if it is you can maybe just roll them once.

I know lularoe sells legging for kid is size ranges that would probably work but I personally havent been able to justfiy spending $23 on one pair of legginfs for my DD who I don't trust enough to not destroy them Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: Tall Kids and Leggings

I have the same issue and cannot find ones that fit my dd lengthwise. She is 5. I just bought longer socks to put on her under the leggings. Also, in the winter, outside the house, she wears boots that go above her ankle so that covers the gap also. I do have one pair of Cat & Jack brand from target and those are longer than other pairs I've picked up from there.

Re: Tall Kids and Leggings

I like the justice leggings, but I can't put them in the dryer or they shrink too much. We love the ps (aeropostale kids) ones, but they are going out of business so they are hard to find...I'm going to try the abercrombie kids ones too, because their jeans fit my tall, leggy dd really well, so I am hopeful about the leggings.

ETA: I also like the fleece lined leggings that you buy near the socks/tights in kohls...they are more like thick tights and fit awesome on skinny legs!

Re: Tall Kids and Leggings

Thanks everyone for the recommendations. Can't go up in size as she is already rolling the size 8 or M ones.

I would try gymboree because their leggings are either too long or too tight for my average height DD.
