Sweatpants
May 2005
I am looking for 100% cotton sweatpants for my elementary school
age sons. I would love some that have pockets and reinforced
knees. I'm not much of a shopper; I know they don't have them at
Target or Mervyns. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Hanna Anderson has the best sweats around (children's and
adults). Not the least expensive you can find, but, they last
forever and wash well. http://www.hannaandersson.com/
picky about sweats
If you're willing to shop by catalogue or online, you should check out
Hanna Andersson, Land's End, and LL Bean. I do they think they carry
more of that type of product in the fall and winter months, though.

Landsend.com, Hanna Andersson (watch for sales), Old Navy (if you
shop GAP stores). Also - Cotton Kids on Piedmont (if they're
still there)

We have found great (but not cheap) 100% cotton sweat pants on
line or in the catalogue at Hanna Anderssen.com (Sp?). You can
google it. They have a good web page and great customer service.

Try shopping online: Hanna Andersson, Lands End, and/or LL Bean
all have web sites, & all should have what you're looking for.
shop a lot
We have found pocketed sweatpants without reinforced knees at Target, and also at
Sears. Online, LandsEnd has exactly what you want.

My son prefers to wear sweat pants with an elastic waist but
We're having trouble finding ones that have a finished cuff in his
size. Mervyn's carries these in smaller sizes but not the larger sizes.
I'd prefer not to buy the Hanna Andersson ones, since they are
Very expensive. Has anyone seen these elsewhere? Thanks for any help.
Macy's carries a brand called Green Dog that makes them sizes 8 - 20.

Here's what I do with my son's elastic-bottom pants: cut off the elastic cuff; hem the pant legs with a sewing machine. Wrinkles from the elastic should smooth out in the wash, or iron if that doesn't work. Make sure the pant legs are long enough, though!
