Jeans for kids

November 7, 2011
Quickly solved jeans problems

Waist too large, holes in the knees, cold legs during the winter… Here are a few solutions to the problems related to jeans that your children may face.

Holes in the knees
H&M offer, every season, sticky patches for a quick and efficient fix of pants holes. Easy to apply with an iron, they last long and make you save money.

Cold legs under the jeans during the winter
Your child is too proud to wear his winter pants and you are pretty sure that he is freezing during recess? Buy him jersey-lined jeans. Gap and Old Navy sell some warm jeans for boys and girls.

3 simple solutions for pants that are too large at the waist
  • Suspenders for boys at H&M. We tend to forget about them but they look so cute on boys!
  • Elastic belts.
  • Dapper Snapper. The Dapper Snapper looks like a half-belt and adjusts large waists. You just have to place it on the loops with snaps to adjust the size. You can buy it online at Everything mom and Baby or find points of sale here.
