I've seen them here too. But they're not very common. It's kind of a hit or miss thing.

Every store I go to has adjustable waist pants...I can't believe its hard for some of you to find them! That's crazy...your stores need to get with the times.

I'm going to have to re-check when I go back to Walmart then!

does he wear pull ups or diapers still? if not i'd move up to boy sizes and get slims.

Really? I haven't seen them at ALL.   I dunno, maybe I'm not looking in the right places.

Ahh... with my daughter (she's 2.5), most 3T pants fit her in the legs, but are too baggy in the waist. It's annoying! And weirdly, she doesn't seem THAT skinny to me.

For my son adjustable waist pants are the best option because I can get pants that fit him in length and then adjust them to fit around his butt. For where I am though, I have a hard time finding those.
