I'm trying to locate casual and dress pants for a 14 year old boy who's 5"11. He
would need a 26" waist and 34" inseam. He could wear a 28" waist if the
pants had elastic on the sides or an inside drawstring.

Can you please help??

Thanks so much!

Wow, this is an extremely hard size to find.  However, I  get lots of requests for this similar size. It appears that his length is a little bit past the size where they have the elastic waist drawstring inside.  I know what you are talking about, but these are usually only found in boys sizes, but most boy sizes only go up to 32" inseam.  You have inspired me to create this page to help everyone having the same hard to fit size dilemma.

1. Custom Clothing will be your best option as you can get exact measurements.
 

Lands' End Men's Custom Clothing
Custom design your own Chinos and jeans with your own measurements and inseam length.  You can also custom design your own shirts.  I have made a custom designed shirt and have loved it.  I haven't tried the custom pants, but have bought tall sized pants from Lands' End and I love them. This is an affordable option as pants start at $70, however I just went through the process and 28" is the smallest waist size they offer.

 
The Executive's Closet offers men's custom clothing made to your own measurements including fine suits, jeans, shirts, tuxedos and more. I contacted them and they will defiantly let you make a 26" waist or any other custom sized waist. Andy- the owner has given visitors to this website an exclusive 10% discount when you enter coupon code: tallclothing at checkout. You can even send them an item that you fits you well, and they will clone it and make duplicates in the fabrics you choose.  This opens up all kinds of clothing possibilities for tall people.

I have used Make Your Own Jeans to order a pair of jeans. It is an easy and affordable process.  The downside is that it took about a month to receive my custom jeans.  They give you lots of choices on how you want your jeans or chinos to look.  The jeans are made in India and when you pay for them, you will be charged in India's currency which threw me off.  But, be rest assured that your credit card will be processed in the correct US dollars.  If you would like, you can even send them your favorite pair of jeans or pants for them to clone in the size that fits you.  I am really happy with the pair I ordered.

2.  Get a size that almost fits and fit an excellent tailor to custom hem your sizes to you.  A great tailor is a tall person's best friend.  They can also let out inseams if they are a bit too short.  Here are some clothing companies that are great for tall teen males:

28" x 34"
More jeans in a size 28" x 34"

They carry 34" inseams, but the waists start at 30".

Gap.com allows you to search by size.  They have a good selection of men's pants in a 29" waist by 34" length.

Well, that's all I can find for now. If anyone else knows of some resources, I'd be happy to add them here.   I'll bet in the next year you will see him grow tremendously and he will have an easier time trying to find tall pants that fit.  I wish you all the best.
