Size/Fit Guidelines: Waist recommendations shown below are the manufacturers recommendations and are based on the usual skin-tight football pants fit. We have found these pants do run a bit small, and if you do not want super tight football pants, order at least one size bigger than the size chart. The pants are made up of a lycra/spandex polyester material and they will stretch out with use. They may be very tight when first put on. -- 7 PC.
