@Littlebit7's post made me wonder if any bees know of some brands that fit a long and lean LO?
DS is 15 months and his 24 month onesies and pants are already getting too short. I'm going to be so sad when he doesn't fit in onesies anymore! 
I was thinking maybe Zara or h&m, but we haven't tried anything yet.

DS is 34.something inches (95% or so) and 26ish lbs (60% ish) at 19 months. All he wears is H&M and zara. We do carters and ON pjs.
H&M has super weird sizing. He has a few shirts that are 1.5-2 yrs and they will probably fit him when he is 3. Plus a pair of 6-9 mo jeans he is still wearing (not kidding). Other then some weird ones here and there, we've had a lot of luck with them!

I really like Peek for my long and lean 22 month old daughter.
-
Not Cat & Jack but if you can find the old Target brand they tend to run skinny.
-
H&M. Lo is like a 3 waist with 6 length legs.
-
Levi's are price-y but I've found almost new pairs at the local thrift/consignment stores and the kids styles are built long and lean
-
@Greentea: Mine LO too!! I buy a size 5 pants for length but she can wear 2T & 3T shorts lol
-
My kids are long and lean. I felt like I had better luck with lengths at that age at Carter's compared with ON/gap. I remember having leggings from both places for DD and the SoN ones definitely getting too short first! I also didn't have much luck with the target lines.
-
My kids are long and lean. We've had good success with Children's Place stuff, Carter's skinny jeans (fitting more like regular jeans), long sleeved shirts and thermals from Cat and Jack, the Cat and Jack cuffed jogger pants, and randomly the Jumping Beans brand from Kohls. I found the Zara and H&M pants to be too big in the waist for my kids. Joggers or sweats that have that ankle cuff seem to fit longer than regular pants.
-
@peaches1038: carters are definitely the longest ones i've tried. Also you might have luck with extenders
-
I think Carters run small. For long and lean I've had luck with Gymboree.

If you don't mind buying a lot at one time to get free international shipping I would suggest Bonds. My LO is 29" and his 12-24 mos pants from Bonds came in and OMG I think he needs to grow at least another 5 inches before it makes sense even putting them on him. I bought and returned some H&M pants because buy the time LO would grow into the size the season would be over.
-
@peaches1038: Buy some onesie extenders! It won't help with sleeve length but it will let you get a lot more wear out of short sleeved ones.
-
Crew cuts - I buy them used for a couple of dollars a piece.
-
@erinbaderin: mind. blown. i have NEVER seen or heard of onesie extenders!? genius! googled and bought 3 immediately!!
-
@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: I'e never heard of Bonds! Will have to look into that
-
H&M are by far the oddest fitting clothes. I had a long and lean and an average-chubby kid and they fit both of them poorly.
-
@Calibee: @Mrs. Lemon-Lime: I'll check both these companies out! I haven't heard of them before. Thanks!
@Mrsbells: @erinbaderin: I actually have some but the sleeves are short! They will be perfect for short sleeved onesies though!
@Portboston: @Greentea: @MsMini: good to know about the odd fit of H&M!
@gingerbebe: we have some children's place jams, but haven't bought any of their clothing yet. thanks!
@luckylifemummy: @farawayyama: thanks, I will check them out!
@dolphin: @MamaCate: @skipra: thanks!!
-
@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: yep. Bonds addict here. Agree. They run so long. we love them!!!
-
Chiming in to say the Jumping Beans brand at Kohls is long and lean too. We have couple of their leggings and my LO just outgrew the 2T (she's 4) and it was only outgrowing the waist not length. She's a peanut. Sigh.
-
DD is 35in (off the charts), and 22lbs (10%). Long and super lean. Carter's and oath kosh fit well in the waist in 2t. But, are already too short. Baby gap is pricey so I very rarely purchase it, but I just got some spring pieces on clearance, and really love the fit. Thank goodness warm weather is right around the corner so I can keep her in 2T shorts and capris. Gymboree is cut short and wide, so it never works for us!
