formal trousers in odd number waist size?

11fernsroad

Hi
Can anyone know of any Highstreet shop which sells formal trousers in odd number waist size?
I find 34 size it too loose on me and 32 bit tight
I guess if i get 33 it would be most apt.
Any ideas?

Sorry, I can't help you there, I've only ever seen even-numbered waist sizes.

But there are lots of places around that will alter clothes for you for not much money. A lot of the high street shops will offer this service, but you'll quite often find a local "lady" ( sorry, not meaning to be sexist ! ) who also does it. Look for adverts in local shop windows, or ask on a local community Facebook page if you have one.

In my experience it's just a matter of shopping around. One shop's 38 is another shop's 36. Somewhere it will be 37. I'm bigger than you

Find some with an adjustable waist.

More expensive brands will have fabric or a little zipper type affair.

Cheaper ones will have holed elastic and a button or velcro.

I bought trousers from Slater Menswear the other week and they were too big on the waist. They adjusted them for me in store for free and I picked them up before I finished my shopping. Other shops may also offer this but I think most would have to send them away which is less convenient.
