‘waste’ for ‘waist‘

I was reading “A design and usability blog” and a month-old article that describes a compact, plastic wallet for money and cards. It contains this gem:

“Now make one that doesn’t just fit the look for someone with their cell phone in a belt clip, a pen or two in their front pocket, and their pants riding entirely too high above the waste.”

This eggcorn conjures up some interesting visions!
