I have a very weird shaped body having a 26" waist with all my extra weight in my upper body. My calves measure 20.5" , 19.25" thighs and 26" waist is weird. I have to buy kids jeans that have to be taken out in the calf area to fit me.
Does anyone have a problem like this?

Everyones different but that is a tiny waist. Especially since there is only a 5.5" difference in your calves and waist. My waist is 32" with 12" calves, 20" difference.0

Normal is just another word for boring. I say pray for bell-bottoms to come back and in the meantime be glad you don't have a big ole beer belly!
Editing to add that I used to work for a guy who had a very narrow waist and zero (and I do mean ZERO) butt. Seemed like a basic, skinny guy. But then when the warm weather rolled around and he wore shorts, I learned that he had monster calves! Quite out of proportion with the rest of him, but not unattractive. They were actually very nice, strong, monster calves -- much like yours. He used to wear Diesel jeans a lot, if memory serves me. Straight leg.
Just sayin'.0 -

You should see a physician about scanning your legs. You appear to have a very localized form of edema. If you apply pressure to your calves do they "dent"?0

Where do you buy jeans? My son is 45 and has always worn a 28" waist when it comes to pants. He is not a shopper so every Christmas I buy him the Levi 503's that are the only thing he will wear. It is a search!!! I don't know if actual waist size is the same as pant size but given the trouble I have already, I sure wouldn't want to be looking for a 26.0

Do you happen to know if Levi 503's come in kid's sizes?
BTW How tall are you? or what is your pant length? I think that would be a factor if you are heading into kid sizes.0 -
American Eagle has men's size 26 jeans. They have straight leg jeans so they'd probably be roomier in the calf area.0

That's not normal for a guy to have that small a waist and calves bigger than your thigh. But those calves are beautiful0
