Clothing (Pants) Question

Greetings ....

Currently, I'm a waist-size 38, and I realize I need to take a couple of inches off (That's an admission for sure!)

In the meantime, I need some flexible-fitting pants. "Flexible" meaning they'll fit WITHOUT falling off!

Until recently, I have purchased "side-elastic" pants, but these stretch only so far. There's another type of pants called "E-Z Fit" which, according to the product description, can stretch out up to 4 inches! But the description stops there!

So - Here's my specific question: Is that extra 4 inches supposed mean 4 inches beyond the stated initial waist size?

Example: pants stated waist-size is 38 inches. 38 plus 4 is 42. Is that interpretation correct?

Thanx-A-Lot, Frank-0-Sport

I'm by no means an expert, and this is more just a virtual bump to your topic so someone who would know better than I can answer, but I would presume that 38" would indeed be the initial waist size, with the extra 4" on top of that.

OT I know, but I checked out your webpage...you sure have a lot of info compiled there!! Very nice, although it could do with a little decoration (I read your disclaimer ).

I believe that to be correct. I bought some Docker shorts last summer that were like that last summer, and when I got them they fit right. Then after playing so much golf and eating better all summer, I had to eventually poke 2 extra holes in my belt to make them fit. So, the size that it gives should be the standard size, and then it goes up 4 inches. Of course, you can always email the company, or whoever, is selling them, and ask to be sure.

I have pants in my closet for everything from a 36 to a 32-inch waist. I can tell you from experience that there is no pair of pants that will stretch that much and look good at the high and low ends of the scale.

I usually need the pants with the 38 in the length department. Just my two cents, Dockers work well and they are relatively affordable and clean nicely.

Dockers are nice. Middle age: the age of the middle. The doctor said to watch my weight...so I have it out front where I can keep an eye on it...
