Since kids come in all shapes and sizes, finding pants that fit can be tricky. Pants and jeans that are long enough in length often are too big in the waist or vice versa. Adjustable waist pants are the perfect option for kids who are hard-to-fit or are in-between sizes. These pants make it possible to make slight adjustments in the waistband allowing you to customize a fit that is tailored specifically for your child.

Adjusting Pants and Jeans
Adjustable waist pants for kids are a great option to consider when you are having trouble getting pants to fit your child. To make the adjustment is simple. There is a piece of elastic inside the waistband that has button holes in it. To make the pants tighter, you pull on the elastic and fasten the hidden buttons farther down. To make them looser, you move the button back to add more room.
