My Jeans are a bit too small

Hey guys I have a small problem.

I just bought some jeans online from dillards and it turns out they are a bit tight around the waist. They are 42 32's  and usually I can fit them but these are a pain. I tried returning them but I found out they are not taking my particular style back (odd but whatever)

 

So I was wondering if anyone has this same problem or just knows if there is a way to fix this. 

 

Thanks!

cotton stretches... most jeans will stretch about 1-2 inches in the waist. In fact most people 'round these parts intentionally buy their jeans a little snug so that by the time they're done stretching out, they'll be just perfect.

So wearing them a ton would do the trick?

It doesn't even really take a ton- A couple of wearings, at the most. Jean stretch fairly easily.

yep, if you need just an inch or something, I'd say within 5 wearings you'll be there.

you can also try lightly wetting the waistband area and then putting them on doing some squats. Wet cotton will stretch and stay there better then dry (bounces back)

After they stretch, wash cold, hang dry.
