The elastic waistband and legs of pants are important parts of pants. They help to keep the pants snugly fit to the wearer’s shape. Good elastic will make pants comfortable and durable, and will not sag or droop easily.

How to Check the Quality of Elastic Waist/Legs of Pants

• Check the thickness of the elastic. Good elastic should be of medium thickness, not too thin or too thick. If the elastic is too thin, it will make the pants sag easily. If the elastic is too thick, it will be uncomfortable to wear.
• Check the elasticity of the elastic. Good elastic should have high elasticity and can be stretched without tearing or breaking easily. If the elastic has low elasticity, it will be uncomfortable to wear and may make the pants sag easily.
• Check the durability of the elastic. Good elastic should be durable and will not tear or break easily. If the elastic is not durable, it will make the pants sag easily.

How to Test the Quality of Elastic Waist/Legs of Pants

• Test the elasticity of the elastic by stretching it out to its full extent. If the elastic stretches out without tearing or breaking easily, it shows that the elastic has high elasticity.
• Test the durability of the elastic by bending it back and forth several times. If the elastic does not tear or break easily, it shows that the elastic is durable.
