Is the material "stretchy"? Not just in the waist, but the overall pant.

No, the material is a tight weave ripstop nylon and does not contain lycra or offer stretch. The panel construction does, however, offer excellent leg movement for active use. As mentioned, there are two small elastic waist panels.

Not really. Other than the elastic waist, they are just a thin nylon material. Very comfortable though! Hope this helps.

Not really. It is more of a lightweight nylon that keeps it from wrinkling but is not stiff at all. Very comfortable and travels well.

A bit big for the size comparing to other manufacturers. But waist is very stretchable.

The pants have a slight elastic waist band I wear a 31 to 32 inch waist and I purchased the 32 and they fit fine. Because of the material and wash instructions there wasn't any shrinkage.

I typically wear a Large in the Zumba cargos. However, I had to purchase an XL to wear this. It has significant stretch in the waistband but not necessarily in the butt and legs. The length is ample. I hope this is helpful.

Yes, the pants have elastic built in to them. I have a similar problem, and I have found these pants to be some of the most comfortable pants I have ever owned.

I would describe the material to be similar to jeans and would think they would be fine for use at the gym or for yoga. The only thing I would consider as "odd-ball" is there is a tag on the front (which you can see in the the picture) and the bottoms don't have as much taper at the ankle as other karate pants.

i'm a 40" waist, but I got the xl/xxl to be on the safe side. the jacket is a little baggy, and the pants have a drawstring waist like a pair of sweatpants. all you have to do when you get it is hand fray the cloth as it all clumped up from manufacturing, but for my personal use as a Halloween costume it's pretty good. I hope this helped.

No, it's not stretchy at all. It's a pretty hard and thick piece of silicone.

Yes, there is stretch around the leg portion. The plastic will give pretty much as well.

Absolutely! ..and I like the stretchy material cause after you take your items out it goes back to its original size.

Brenden, No its not stretchy at all, its ripstop fabric which is like a softer Carhartt material.

Provided they weren't to constrictive- yes. I wear it under my martial arts pants with no issues

It has some give to it, but it doesn't have any elastic. So not really stretchy.

I would compare it to putting on a pair of stretchy skinny jeans. Not that easy but definitely doable after having the baby.

Yes about even with each hip, there is about 6" of very slightly elastic...it only gives a small amount of "flex" They come with an adjustable belt. The shorts run true to size and are my best summer shorts, I've got 4 pair and they're great.

Sounds like a major defect to be 5 inches short. The pair of pants that I recently received fit perfectly both in the waist and length. The only issue I have with the pants is the extra "relaxed" fit around the legs. I know the pants was designed to be relaxed for tactical purposes but this was a little wider than I expected. Hope this helps.
