I need to add more room on the leg openings for my new pants, but I dont want them to rip, how should I do that? Obviously I need to cut them, but how should I keep them from continuing to rip up the leg. I dont have or know how to use a sewing machine, so thats out, would super gluing along the cut and at the top work? How have you guys done it?

Any help would be much appreciated. Keep in mind the pants only cost me $10 but I still dont want to just straight up destroy them.

Thanks
 
Cut them up the side seam. Sew across just above where you stopped cutting, then duct tape over the edges. You don't know how to sew? Buy a needle and thread and figure it out. It doesn't have to be pretty because the duct tape will cover it - just make sure you go over it a few times so it's going to hold.
