3. Slacks and shorts - We have found the pants make of stretchy material or Jersey with an elastic waistband to be the bet, preferably in a size slightly larger than normal to allow for muscle spread. They look better and are easier to put on. For someone like myself with a permanent Foley catheter, we find that opening the outside leg seam in slacks from a point mid-thigh to approximately knee level, allows the drainage tubing to pass through unobstructed and almost undetected. This opening can be faced with a Velcro zipper which enables the seam to be reclosed after the tubing is in place.
