Athletic shorts for skinny, tall 5 yo?

Anonymous
I'm looking for reasonably priced athletic shorts for my skinny, tall 5yo. She normally lives in dresses (with tights in colder weather) and we need some for soccer camp. Girls' shorts are so short to begin with that sizing down doesn't often work. Boys shorts don't come in pink and purple.
Anyone find any girls' athletic shorts with an actual drawstring rather than a pull-on style? She is good with fine motor skills, so tying is not a problem.
Thanks!

I find that UA runs HUGE on my skinny girl. We have better luck with Nike and Adidas.

Meant to add that we won't buy anything without a drawstring!

Not reasonably priced, but Athleta Girl shorts are cut pretty slim. The Nike running shorts w a drawstring tied tight also work for tiny waists.

Nike or Addidas.
Shop boys and girls department. I bought a packet of drawstring clasps at that age because my son struggled keeping his drawstring tied tight enough.

Thanks all, will look into these. Also love the idea of drawstring clasps. My son (older!) can't for the life of him get anything tied.
