Can you stretch out chino pants?
What do you do? Easy! Khaki pants are usually made out of either cotton or wool. That means if they’re too tight, you can stretch the fibers out so they fit more comfortably, much in the same way you would for jeans or wool pants.
How do you loosen chinos?
Fill the washer with water before adding the clothes and then add one cup of white vinegar (just like the soaking method). Then add in your jeans and chinos. Dryers are convenient, but there is a trade off – they break your clothes down, cycle by cycle.

Should chinos fit tight?
Chinos should be snug enough around your waist that you don’t really need a belt to hold them up. Granted, it’s fine to wear a belt to get that extra ¼ to ½ inch cinch, or just because you like the look, but you shouldn’t have to tighten your belt so much that it causes the fabric to bunch up around the waistband.
How do you make chino pants bigger?
You can make your pants bigger around the waist using either stretching or sewing techniques. The easiest way to widen the waistband of your pants is to stretch the fabric to make it looser. You can also make more permanent alterations with scissors and a sewing machine.
What to do with pants that are too small?
Making a waist smaller is easier than expanding it. You can go to a tailor to get this done professionally.

How do you make a pant extender?
Stick the ponytail holder through the buttonhole of your pants, and then tuck one end of the elastic band through the other end. You should end up with a stretchy loop that fastens over your button.
