Listen, I was seriously expecting to have to drop a bad review on these pants when I ordered them. But I was really digging this Terra cotta color so figured I would at least give them a shot. ....After receiving them, I noticed that the cool Terra cotta color wasn’t the same shade the color pic showed, however they did turn out to be a deep clay red color, which after really looking at it seemed to be as equally cool. Another thing I wasn’t expecting was that this material may be a bit thin, not terribly thin, but definitely super soft to the touch. I also liked the relaxed feel to the legs. They didn’t have that terrible taper in the legs most pants are getting now days. This is just a personal preference here, but I just can’t stand the skinny fit type stuff. Luckily these pants where pretty true to size, so when I ordered 34x34 they were exactly 34 in the waist, and almost 35 in length. So that’s perfect in my book. An extra inch in length isn’t bad at all. I always get my pants a few sizes larger than my actual size because I prefer baggy fit pants. Something I should mention though, is the pockets on these pants are on the average to small size. I’m a fan of the larger pockets on cargos so these wasn’t quite what I would prefer in that category, but they wasn’t unsightly small. Just not the huge pockets I dig. Like I said earlier, these pants are pretty soft so I can easily look past a couple personal expectations. It definitely seems though that for anything that I found I personally would like to see different, that made up for in a different aspect. Like I was happy to see that they have the belt loops that can actually handle a 1.75” inch tall belt. I personally can’t stand to find a pair of pants I like, just to notice that you could only fit a skinny dress size belt in the loops. Belts and belt buckles should be large, No exception. And these pants can easily fit a larger belt. Something I did do, was I went around all the buttons on all the pockets and slapped a few extra stitches in all those buttons. Now, they didn’t feel lose or anything, but this is just something I do on all my cargos. I like knowing that I won’t be losing any buttons to weak factory threads. Hey, I know this has been a bit long winded, so just let me say this, I’m gonna be honest here, I cannot attest to how long these pants will hold up, but, I’m definitely surprised at how much better they were than what I was expecting them to be. I don’t think would trust wearing these out on a construction site or doing any type of heavy manual labor, but for just out and about kick’n it, or just hang’n around the house, I would have to say YES, I’d definitely suggest others to at least give these pants a shot. I might even scoop up another pair in that yellow color. I hope this review helps somebody out.
