It's merely shorthand for the fact that I appear to have dispensed with a useful amount of lard through Manly Pursuits, rather than eating twigs and gravel.

My most recently purchased (ie about a year ago) trouser garments are also gravitating towards being worn in the "Hackney Pants" style at the moment. This is tremendously pleasing (and comical).
Good, innit? I have taken to wearing my some of my older trousers from time to time just for the sense of achievement they provide.
(Not often and not in public, because they make me look like a weapons-grade spack who can't buy clothes that fit. But y'know, about the house, that sort of thing.)
Indeed. Even if still somewhat too cosy around the waist to be worn in public, being able to do them up at all is very satisfying.
Of course, at the moment I'm at that stage with most of my trousers, hence a lot of casual untucked shirts. But in a few months, hoepfully I'll be able to wear my existing trousers more comfortably!
women know all too well that clothing sizes are a fickle thing... and from day to day the ize they take will change.. from store to store, from item to item, from sandwich to sandwich... erm...
some nice lip service jeans are what you want:

anyway, jeans *do* stretch once you've worn them a few times, they only shrink when you wash them, and thats mostly only the first time, if theyre not pre-shrunk!
Eh?
