There are some other points to address as well such as the fit of the pants. Comfort is a factor in the selection of dress pants. The best fitting dress pants will have a fit that allows two fingers to fit into the waist band when the pants are worn. This will allow the wearer the necessary room to feel comfortable and for movement as well as sitting comfort. There are also other factors to consider concerning the style of the pants. The pants should be designed well so that they do not appear too dated.

One part of the design is whether to wear dress pants with pleats. The presence of pleats can accentuate the way a pants looks on some persons and not be complimentary on others.
