Does anybody know where to get High waisted slacks or a suit with high waist slacks?

I have been looking for a three piece with a high waist and shorter vest without any luck.

I still want to have children some day! Not that high ha! More like Fred Astaire's suit in "Blue Skies" when he was doing impressions with Bing, just with a SB vest.

He's not doing himself any harm; the rise of the trousers is just especially high. I've got a couple pairs of trousers with rises that are that high, or very near it, but they're not the least bit snug down below the waist.

High rise trousers just means there's more fabric between the crotch and the waistband. Got nothing to do with crushing the wedding-tackle...It's low-rise trousers that do that!
