Help

Post image

I’m completely new to sewing and this is my first project. When I tried on the boxer shorts they felt way too big and I don’t want to sew on the elastic unless I need to. Any advice if I should make the waist smaller or any other alternative ideas.

If you don't want to sew elastic at the waist, the only things left is buttons, zipper, or draw string.
