waist measurement + pant size?
I’ve been having this problem lately with finding the right pant size for me. I used measurement tape to measure my waist (which is right above my belly button correct?) and it came out to just above a 46, when I measured just above my hips and underneath my stomach it came out to just above a 43. I initially tried on pants that were size 38 and 40 because those were the highest I could find and fit around my belly button but those both eventually started to fall down as I walked longer with them and eventually just completely fell down when I ran a little with them. Then I tried a size 36 and it felt just right, a little tight but never fell below my hips as I walked or ran with them but a lot of the times my butt crack would show wearing them. I’m actually a mess about this because I don’t know what I’m doing. I never have this issue with sweatpants that stretch which are labelled Large in one brand or XL in another brand.
