Size matters

Ranked #743 - Men's Softshell Pants
January 4, 2007
Same problem with Alchemy as with Maneuver as reviewed on this site; waist size is not accurate by a long shot. I ordered the large; the static waist (not a trace of elastic anywhere) was VERY tight and I'm a 35" at most. No way this thing fits to 37 as the size chart indicates. Tight waist, overly snug in other areas. Too bad; it's first-rate gear if they'd only make it true to size. Alas, had to return it; bummer.
