Waist band needs help, otherwise super cozy

By Brian B. January 20, 2009

I bought these for my girlfriend to wear as a cold weather running pant. They've been co-opted into everyday cozy pants, and they perform flawlessly in that regard. However, the waistband is only stitched at the two side seams, and the elastic is folded up just a bit to make the stitch shorter. These two things combined cause the elastic to roll inward, and make the waistband fit very strangely. This was obviously done to achieve a clean-looking line at the waist, but function should come first. Great pants, but they need a reworking at the waist to get more than three stars.
