May I suggest purchasing the Toughskin brand blue jeans available in the boys' department of Sears? They are called "relaxed fit," but they fit my VERY slim boys nicely, thereby allowing them to look neat in them, and not like a pair of gangbanger wannabes.
I not only get my own boys those jeans, but I purchase them for my neices as well. No embroidered butterflies on them, but by golly, the waistline is ON THE WAIST, and they really take a beating before wearing out, too.
Meanwhile, I'm forced to spend a small fortune shopping at Lord and Taylor in order to buy the girls nice dresses. I simply will not spend my money on the streetwalker styles available in most other stores.

My 5 brothers and I wore toughskins all the way through elementary school.
