[QUOTE="TorqPenderloin, post: 1085721, member: 211504"] Jeans are not a good measurement for waist size. They're generally 2-3" smaller than a true waist measurement in inches. Waist size is generally measured either at your navel or 1-2" above it. Trouser size is irrelevant because modern style is to wear them lower on your waist while in the 80s-90s you traditionally wore them higher towards your navel. To put it in perspective, I wear a 33 in jeans, my suit pants are all cut for 36.5" (I wear them lower on my hips), but my actual waist size is 35.5"-36" [/QUOTE]
