I managed to get a trip to Kmart after the doctor today but really didn’t like any of their trackie daks. They all had the wide rigid elastic waistband high and tight on your stomach and I can’t stand even the suggestion of being squeezed. Or it digging in if you bend. Also the rest of the stuff was ugly.

I don’t want to have to sew my own clothes 🙃

My ascolor trackies have that shit overenthusiastic waist band. Really regret them tbh. Even bought 3xl for hernia comfort wear.

I thought it was just a trendy cut for women’s daks
 maybe they’re making them all over tight and rigid *to compensate for eventual stretching of the elastic but it’s still a shit move. The elastic is never going to stretch out if I can’t stand to wear the damn things and the purpose was comfort.

Sorry to hear about the hernia

I'm on the mend from the hernia thanks, those pants still suck. Either give me gurgley stomach or press too hard on the surgery site.

Uncomfortable exercise/slob wear should be illegal. That goes double when sick, disabled or recovering from surgery
