Help with fitting better
After trooping on halloween, I realized I need to fit my legs better so I can move better. Does anyone have any ideas?

They fit good as far ,I just can't bend my legs and climbing steps is really hard. Also sitting is almost impossible. Do I need to trim them smaller or any ideas. the left calf dug into the back of my leg and left a good mark. But to be honest with ya. I did not even notice it with all the little kids around. that is awesome.

You could trim them shorter. Trim off the bottom by your boots. Then the calf parts will drop down and the top will still look right. Just do it a little at a time untill you get the right feel. Some guys cut out the back of the calves and then add white vinyl near the top that will bend.
If you are getting pinched, either in the knee area or the elbows, you can buy some of those elastic knee or elbow braces and where them under your body suit. I wear elbow braces because it keeps me from being pinched when I bend my arms all the way.
Hope that helps.
