If you think both are lame, then why not just buy outerwear that fits?

its not hard

1)pull pant inside out
2)pin to where you think you'll like it
3)sew straight stitch
4)test pants.
5)if your happy with it sew a cross stitck and either cut out the leftover or leave it in. be sure to get waterproofing strip if you cut it out

basically its a peice of tape that u put over the seam to prevent water from getting in/out, and it reinforces the seam as well

event though i view tight pants as silly

 coolness/lameness of tight pants aside, i'd say there is a really good chance that you're going to totally destroy your pants if you don't know what you're doing , especially if you've never sewed anything before, let alone tech snow pants. dont they sell pants that are tight already?
