My daughter is so thin she’s the smallest kid of all her friends that are the same age, and it’s always a struggle to find skinny jeans that actually fit like skinny jeans and are also the right length. Normally we have to size down and cinch in the adjustable waistbands, but she’s 12 (almost 13) and the 12’s in these actually fit her almost perfectly. They gap slightly at the back of the waistband, but other than that, they fit around her legs properly and go all the way to her ankle. If you typically have to buy slim sizes for your kiddo (and even those are too big or baggy) then these are for your child!
