boys sleep shorts age 14 "impossible to find"

i have searched the internet for a set of pjs short set "ideally just the bottoms" for my 14 year old son.
plainish ones no silly caracters or anything. most places stop at age 13. i have tried to look for xs mens but cant find that either. there is defo a huge gap in the market. not all 14,15, year ols are tall and can fit into men size. help.

    My son is 14 and easily fits into mens size small, he is neither tall or larger built, granted the legs on some trousers are miles to long but this would not affect shorts. Are you only able to shop online or to get to the shops? New look, Topman and Burtons offer XS sizes but i cant see these on line.

    Have you tried the supermarkets?
  • I agree with hermum. Try Peacocks and Asda.

    Asda, definitely. DS used to have these when he was that age. He's 16 now and in large men's clothes, but wears boxers in bed.

    Do you have a TK max close. They have lots of bottom halfs only that are just above the knee.

    FCUK and Calvin Klein. Small mens fits my 13 year old just fine they have elasticated wait bands. I think they were £7.99 or £9.99

    Just get tracksuit bottoms. They're cheap, comfortable, easy to wash and teenagers love wearing them.

    Try mens small they are about a 32 inch waist, medium tends to be 34 inch. We get a lot of DS's stuff like that in peacocks.

    If they are elasticated waist you could always pull the elastic in a bit.

    Either that or cheap sports/PE shorts.
    This time I haven't smoked since 6th Jan 2014 and still going ok.
    Fingers crossed x

    My sons and daughter all wear shorts for bed. If you have a sports world close by they are reasonable or failing that go to a market and pick up a couple of pairs for a fiver. if he is into his labels you can pick up adidas puma nike shorts in sports world , lilywhites and they will feel so cool going to bed in them.

    Failing that the school shops usually sell basic shorts which are fine to sleep in.
