Trousers

Find yourself sizing up to squeeze your thighs into trousers, only for the waistband to bunch like a rugby forward’s, mid-scrum? It’s time to explore new styles of chinos, trousers and jeans.

As we’ve already touched upon, skinny and slim fits won’t sit well, so try classic straight, regular and tapered fits instead. These should not only feel more comfortable to wear, but also help to keep your legs looking in proportion.

Once you’ve found a style that fits comfortably through the thigh and seat, take a look in the mirror and see whether or not you need alterations made in the waist or through the leg, from the knee down (a process known as ‘skimming’).

When it comes to denim, look out for brands offering stretch styles. The likes of Levi’s and Nudie are now incorporating a little elastane into many of their jeans, making them a good deal more accommodating for legs that are above-average in circumference.
