These pants are not vanity sized like pants tend to be these days. They didn't come hemmed because that's what a tailor is for. Which is reimbursed by the company (subject to set amounts).
Could APA have recommended a better uniform vendor out of the vendors who bid? Sure. Could we have gone with something besides a rebranded US Airways uniform as a hasty replacement? Yup. Could we have avoided all of this nonsense in the first place if AAG management had handled the new merged airline/Twin Hill uniform roll-out better? Of course. However, does nonstop griping from this pilot group accomplish anything?
We're professionals; use a tape measure, follow M&H sizing guidance, get the pieces exchanged if necessary, and go see a daggone tailor. (You should've seen the trash Class A that I got issued as a new PFC: poor material, bad fit, and bad Ft. Sill tailoring. Got it fixed by a tailor off post and drove on.) Until we switch vendors again, we work with what we've got; if we want to be treated as professionals come contract time, then we need to act the part.
