Do these dress pants not fit correct?
Hi Sartorialists, I have a question about the linen suits I recently bought. The trousers fit well but they tend not to sit upon the waist correctly like I would imagine they are supposed too? If I put my belt on the 4th buckle in so that it is very tight it keeps them in the correct place near...- dapperdondublin

buy pants exact waist or bigger?
just a quick question, i use to buy 2 sizes bigger. for example for me, a 32 is like a perfect fit and i can wear it without a belt and it be fine. but it's such a "perfect fit" i'm afraid if i gain ANY weight then it'll automatically become too small. how about you? buy exact size or size bigger?- unknown00

How to tell if pants (waist) can be let out?
Just bought a pair of khakis from GAP (Tailored Straight Leg) and was wondering if these khakis were designed like many others (made to be able to have tailors let them out a few inches if needed.) Yes I can get the right waist size but the thigh/leg taper would not be the same. I just need a...- fashof

Can all/most trousers be let out in the waist?
I'm getting fat and need to let a couple pairs out about an inch. Is there a way to tell if they can be let out, or can I just assume they can be? They're from Brooks Brothers (and 346) if that makes any difference.- anon

Where do you wear your pants.. like where do you put the waist?
I always wear my pants under my tummy like where the fat of the stomach rolls over and stops... top of the pelvis. I guess that's why I have to get a really short length and then hem them even more after I buy them. Like usually I get 38x30 or 38x29 and get them tailored a little shorter so I...- blueoakleyz

How much can you take-in on the waist?
I have a pair of dress pants that I need to take down from a 33 to a 30 waist. Will a tailor be able to do this pretty easily, or is it too much big of a change? Generally, what is the "maximum" amount that you can take-in at the waist and have it still look OK?- Sway23
