[RBW] Re: MUSA pants and shorts replacement elastic band?
Patrick, Thanks man! Got some of that non-roll elastic and it was perfect.

Edwin, I've tried two replacements, both 1". One was from Amazon and it was total crap. The other was from JoAnn Fabric and it is perfect! The latter was "non-roll" and after comparing the two, I now understand what that means, i.e. the Amazon one was so thin that it rolls lengthwise, whereas the JoAnn band has ribbing that stops it from rolling or doubling over. Here's a link with different colors: https://www.joann.com/sewing/sewing-and-quilting-supplies/elastic/ I've also ditched the buckle and gone with a 1" plastic strap adjuster...

The silver lining to gaining a little weight is that my MUSA shorts stay up better now. :) On Monday, August 31, 2020 at 7:16:00 AM UTC-5 Edwin W wrote: > Has anyone replaced the elastic band on their MUSA pants or shorts?
