HAIBEIRPant Stretcher 30 to 59 inches -Heavy Duty - Easy to Use - Men Women Long-Term Stretch for Jeans Pant Skirt Trouser

Make sure that after you moisten the inner and outer part of the waist band, that you use a small vice grips to clasp together area above the zipper. Do NOT snap or use the button on the pants to close the front of the pants in place otherwise when you go to stretch it, you may very well break those parts as they cannot withstand the stretching. That's why you use the vice grips. Think about what I have said and you will understand.

Worked good. See photos. Had some cotton and cotton blend pants with tight waists due to laundry shrinkage. Got them back to the original size. First I pulled up the zipper without fastening the button or hook. I used a towel and tight vice grips to hold the waist closed. If you use the normal garment fasteners they will likely break due to the force of the stretching. Next I put the device in the waist band. Make sure it's centered in the waistband because that is what needs to be stretched. Using hands I tightened the stretcher so it was firmly in place, then tightened a bit more with a wrench - not too tight. At this point I misted the waist band with distilled water (tap water can cause stains). After misting I tightened a bit more and left several hours until the fabric was dry. The waist returned to its original size. I wouldn't recommend this on pants that have a back seam in the waste. You might end up breaking that seam. For pants that have not shrunk, proceed cautiously because there may only be a little stretch available beyond the actual size. The important thing to remember is to use clamping during stretching to hold the waistband close, not the garment fasteners, which will be over stressed. BE CAREFUL. You can damage your garment if you apply excessive stretch. Maybe practice with old clothing first.

This product works as it should. I suggest using a little spray bottle to squirt water on the waist area to assist the material in relaxing for the stretch

ok

The most I could get my pants to increase in size was 2 inches (barely)....not sure where the manufacturergets more than that. I tried on jeans/pants; no difference. If 2 inches is all you need, then fine but if youneed 3 inches, not sure how that will work out.

Truthfully, it didn’t work. Tried three times to stretch the jeans but no success.

So I bought this because I've got pants that, well, don't fit so good anymore. Does it work? YEP! Took them out of the wash machine and put the stretcher to work. Will do after each washing for the next couple washings. And that was on a pair of Levi's that I couldn't get buttoned at all. I keep telling the wife the dryer is shrinking my Levi's... she says it's the refrigerator. Might be.

When my husband accidentally over-dried several of my jeans; when I did not help by eating a little too many treats, this device helped me to keep my pants rather than to buy new ones. A great relief and works very well. Nicely designed. WELL WORTH the purchase!
