Research Abstract	The aim of this study is to clarify the best waist composition of infants' trousers. We have measured the clothing pressure and blood flow. Experiments and surveys were carried out in the Kindergarten Attached to Osaka Kyoiku University in 2012. The main results obtained from this study are as follows: The clothing pressure of waistline increased with sitting position than a standing position. It was confirmed that the blood vessel volume lowers in high clothing pressure. As a result of survey, nearly half of them have an experience that they were not able to resize the infants' trousers since there was not an inlet hole to exchange a rubber cord. There is necessity to enlighten to confirm whether you can exchange a rubber cord at the time of the purchase.
