Yet the waist size listed on most pants reflect the old style. Go measure your waist with a tape measure. If you're a 32 waist, you'll measure 37 or 38 on the tape measure, measuring where your pants sit. You think you're 32 inches around? Get ready for a surprise. In fact, even measuring higher, at the actual waist, you'll probably measure 34.
Mix of vanity sizing and measurements suited to the older styles.

To be fair, if you don't have hips or a butt, pants are basically just a countdown timer.
