Ok so I ordered my blues uniform on eservices and I just got it a few days ago but the pants don't fit so what should I do? :-\

There was an instruction sheet that should have come with the uniform.  I believe you have to contact AAFES @ Lackland AFB which is where they ship them from. A better prospect is to see if you can trade them in for a pair that fits from your Squadrons stock if they have any.

How do they not fit? if they're too long, you might have to get them hemmed. When I got mine, they were waaaay too long, and the hem was more or less non-existent. I had to get them hemmed. But if they're too tight or loose in the waist, well, I can't help you there.

If I had to guess, I'd say it is the waist size.  Military sizing tends to run smaller than civilian clothes.

ok i'll do that but what's the batch#?

Al Sayre

I suspect it is on the packing slip or shipping materials that the uniform came in.  If you don't have it call them up anyway, they can probably help you out.  As I said before though, it's probably a whole lot easier to trade with someone or trade into squadron stock.  Time = Money.  How much is your time worth?  The pants cost ~$25.00,  how much time are you willing to waste trying to get a new pair of pants for free...
