I'm pretty sure Old Navy has size 28 as does American Eagle.
Maybe in theory, but at least in khakis I could never find many. (Mathson won't wear jeans.)

JC Penney has IZOD khakis in boys sizes that would fit a 28 inch waist.

I was also going to suggest the boys dept. My husband wears a 28 and I buy them when I see them. We just got a pair of olive khakis from Costco, Tommy Hilfilger that were a 29 that ran small.

Strange to say boys' slacks and jeans are usually cut wider than men's. My son's waist is his widest part!

I lurked on this thread, followed advice given OP, and son was happy with his first suit we bought in July. DS left to return to fly to school this AM, late last night told me packing was "under control" though I saw no evidence he had started. Just cleaning up the debris in his room and sure enough find the suit hanging in the closet...grhh
