Rip, I just want you to know...

I blame you for this. Had I never read your book my legs would have never gotten so big as to wear holes in my pants. I'll send you the bill.

Carhartt B11 pants are the answer. But wait: you're in the southern hemisphere, busy hanging on lest you fall off the planet.

I've bought 4 new sets of work/dress pants in the last week replacing all my old ones that tore. What's worse I have to get them all taken in at the waist to fit properly once they get past my legs, and I'm not even remotely strong yet.. clothing costs definitely exceed gym membership at this point in time

Is taking in pants at the waist our best option to accommodate large thighs? Those b11 pants look durable, but is there another recommendation for wide leg pants for everyday use? My thighs are huge for the first time and it's hard to find pants that fit right.

My recommendation stands.

Find a tailor. Buy pants in the size that fits your thighs and ass and have the tailor take them in. It’s not expensive.

My recommendation stands.

When it's 100+ & humid?

I gotta go with the B151's.

Any of those Carhartt dungaree fit pants are probably good & last forever.
