I'm thinking that something they use in the camo dye shrinks these pants when they are being stored from season to season. I don't even wash them but every year my pants get a little tighter. Next year, who knows, they may not fit at all? It's gotta be the dye in the pants is all I can figure. Anyone else ever have this problem with mysteriously shrinking pants?

No It's not the dye It's that washing machine. Our washer also eats socks.

I think you're on to something. The dye used on my leather belts does the same thing.

How strange that ye should mention this very subject! Only the other day, having cleared some drawers out, I thought I'd wear these particular camo's. Put my legs in them. Pulled them up. Il Morte!!! I couldn't even get them up my hips! No way on gods little green earth were the two sides of the waist band coming anywhere Remotely near each other either! Took me a moment to realise I'd put them away maybe eight years ago. LOT of stout under the bridge since then

I seem to have the opposite problem if I dident wear a belt the dang things will fall down around my knees
