Uniforms for fast growers
I'm sure others have had to go through this.
Is there a martial arts uniform reseller with uniforms for rapidly growing teens? Perhaps a nicely priced pant with a long leg than can be hemmed?
My son's pants are way to short, but if we go bigger in size, the waist looks ridicules. He's about 5'7" now, but skinny.
Thanks for any suggestions.The unforgivable crime is soft hitting. Do not hit at all if it can be avoided; but never hit softly. - Theodore Roosevelt

My son is 6'5" and we had to both hem his pants and take them up at the waist band.
We originally went with an off-brand found here locally, but the pant did not hold up well at all. We finally went and purchased Century medium weight and they have held up really well through all of the tailoring,Last edited by Eliz; 09-28-2008 at 10:27.
