Why do most pants for men only come in even waist sizes after size 36?

It’s like the clothing manufacturers ignore their customers who enjoy an extra doughnut or slice of cake. Not all of us want to wear comfort waist pants.

You should not need pants with a larger waist than 36.

they assume if you don't care about your body that you really don't care about perfect fitting pants

comfort waist pants are the shite.

No issues here. Especially since big and tall stores have stepped their game up.

Be glad we aren’t just handing you a potato sack at that point.

My co worker who was a lineman on a semipro football team laughed at that statement.

Just how big a baw are you?

The answer to your question is, of course, sweatpants.

Have you looked around? About 50% of the country is in the overweight or obese category. It's disgusting and pathetic.

A tale as old as time...


ETA: I also don't believe that brands stop at 36. I just checked 2 different brands that I wear. One went up to 40 and one went to size 54.

ETA 2: oops didn't read title clearly. Just order in an even size and find a nice belt bro. Very likely you aren't a model that needs perfectly fitted clothing. 1 size in pants ain't gonna make that big of a difference for you.

If you need bigger than a 36 then you need to fast until you lose 50lbs.
