Is it better to buy pants too big and have them taken in or buy them too small and letting them out?
I will stay within the 2 inch rule.
Buying my correct size is not an option.
I am thin, if that matters in the equation.
Thanks

All things being equal, it’s easier to take in.

Depends a bit on the cut of the trousers and your body habitus. Bigger butt and thighs and thinner waist definitely size up and take the waist in. Skinny butt and thighs then maybe better to let the waist out.

I’m between two waist sizes. For me I’ve found it best to fit my butt and thighs and let the waist out with the trouser cuts I’ve been buying. I started out a size up and brought the waist in, but then needed to slim the legs so as to not have too much excess fabric. The end was never being able to get the seat and upper thigh to be as clean as I wanted.

I do agree with the post above that in the end it is your body shape and the trouser cut you are working with.

Buy just what fits you. Don't buy over or under sized. If you are between waist sizes, you might opt for the over-sized, but even that can prove frustrating. :icon_scratch:

What eagle says. If you have the choice to go small/ large you should have the choice to go just right. Or closest to.

Nope. My size is sold out, that's why I'm asking :fool:

Slim Jim, my friend, if your size is sold out, don't 'just settle' for making do. Wait for the feather merchant to restock! Good luck in your hunt.
