Why is it most pants come lin lengths like 28, 30, 32, 34, 36? Are there no odd number inseam length people? Or, I think half the people end up wearing the wrong length pants. Once in a while I find slacks in 31, never jeans.
Yes there are odd number inseam people. My ex was a 33. It was hard to find pants to fit him length-wise. Usually he went with a 34 just because too long is better than too short. JC Penny is about the only place that I could really find them…maybe once in a while in other stores.

Waist sizes, too.

All of you people can cry all you want about being in-between lengths, but just try to find pants with a 38 inseam and a 36 waist anwhere.

I’m 6’2" and I have 32" inseam, I can’t imagine trying to find an inseam that long! Yeah I know… I have stubby legs, and all my height is in my back. On a side note, shoes don’t come in half sizes after 13, and they’re pretty hard to find in 12 1/2.

How does one ever figure how much they shrink?
Byron’s a 28/32…too skinny for the men’s section, too tall for the boy’s section. I’d rather have a root canal than go clothes shopping for him.

I’m a 27/34. It’s next to impossible to find jeans in that size, and the two pairs I have I treasure.
Now, finding anything other than jeans, like chinos, that’s just impossible. I need a size 2 waist with a 36" inseam… If anyone ever finds a pair, lemme know.

Damn, Lanna…considered taking up modeling? I hear you have to be really thin and tall for that. 
Hey, if you do it, you’d be able to have your pants made for you.
“…being normal is not necessarily a virtue. It rather denotes a lack of courage.”
Heck, forget about matching the waist & inseam. I had the worst time just finding anything in my waist size. I’m a 32, and whenever I go shopping, I have to dig through a mountain of 38s & 40-somthings. And don’t tell me I’m skinny… I am just near the upper limit on that new body mass-index-height-weight thingy. If that’s such a popular size that it’s always sold out, why haven’t the stores’ buyers wised up & adjusted their ordering practices? HUH?
Then once I find a pair of jeans that fit, I go dig through the mountain of XXX-large shirts in search of a medium.
With jeans, I’ve had to resort to turning up the cuffs an inch. Doesn’t look too good, but what do I care at home?
I guess I’m lucky… As a fat guy in a little coat, I am able to find pants in size 40x34 in a lot of places. Usually, I can even by them in 42x36 so they are really comfortable. Thank you, oh baggy pant wearing masses of teen-age Korn worshippers! Did you know that if you play Korn Ass-backwards, it commands you to go and exterminate carp with environment friendly chemicals? 'strue. BTW, Korn kicks ass.

True story. A lot of gangsta-wannabes wear their trousers half-way down their butts. A woman I work with was at a stop light and one of these kids was crossing the street. His pants fell down.
Geez, I wish I was there! I could do my Jerry Lewis impression: “Hey! Hey, your pants fell down! Hey!”
