Ol Sandy Claws brought me a pair of Frogg Togg breathables. Anyone have a good hack for stretching the top. I need to lose some weight, but have always had big thighs, just wanted to get ideas before I do anything drastic. Thought about deflating a basketball, then pumping it back up inside the leg.

Man, that sounds like a good idea but I’d be afraid of weakening them to where they’d split. Can you roll them down a bit? That or is return them for a pair of big chief lacrosse boots. I think they’re bigger than the lacrosse trapline boots.

Id be concerned about breaking the seams. Those are one of weak points with breathables. You may have better luck cutting on tops and then trying to reseal vs inflating. I’ve ripped most every pair I own on seams but aqua seal usually welds them back

Well, went ahead and did it this morning before I left for work. I guess we'll see. I'm not looking at stretching too much, just basically right at the rim. I'll definitely look into aqua seal if I have trouble, thanks guys!
