Sometimes your favorite pants are a little too tight around the waist. Maybe after a wash, during a period of weight changes or simply when you want a little extra comfort. A waist extender is a simple solution that makes it possible to increase the waist size of pants, jeans, skirts or shorts, without having to sew or buy new clothes.
What is a waist extender ?
A waist extender is a small piece that attaches to the button and buttonhole of your pants to add a few extra inches to your waist. It usually consists of an elastic band or silicone and a button, allowing you to continue wearing your favorite pants with greater comfort.
When is it good to use?
Waist extenders are perfect when:
- The pants feel too tight after washing or when weight changes
- you want to keep your favorite jeans a little longer
- you need some extra space during the day, for example after a big meal
- you want more comfort without altering or sewing your clothes
How to use it
Using a waist extender is super easy:
- Unbutton your pants.
- Thread the waist extender through the buttonhole.
- Fasten the button through the buttonhole of the extender.
- Now you have a few extra centimeters around your waist – done!
Because the extender is in the same place as your original button, it is barely visible under your shirt, and you avoid uncomfortable pressure or your pants tightening.
