Material and Comfort

Pros:

  • "Material is light weight but strong and is a cotton/lycra blend, so is very comfortable."
  • "These cargo pants are of a very soft, slightly stretchy brushed cotton material and they fit perfect right out of the box."
  • "The material is lightweight and has a little stretch to it so I found it to be extremely comfortable for everyday wear."
  • "The material is very comfortable and the quality of the pants are beyond my expectations."
  • "The material makes it feel like I am wearing pajamas."
  • "The fabric is amazingly soft and pretty warm."
  • "The material is very good and I think it will last after many washes."

Cons:

  • "Material is super thin."
  • "The material is a lot thicker and very stiff. There's no stretch to it at all."
  • "The green is slowly fading away after going through multiple washes and some wear and tear is showing near the crotch due to chafing with the thighs."
  • "Low quality. After 5 minutes of wearing them, they are all wrinkled."
  • "They are very thin material and after a few washes, they begin getting holes in them."
  • "The color has faded slightly after just 3 or 4 washes."
  • "The material quality is so poor that it looks like I’ve worn them for at least a few years."

Sizing and Fit

Pros:

  • "The fit is as expected, both in the waist and length, ensuring a comfortable wearing experience."
  • "These cargos are really great. They have a stretch to them in the fit and they are true to size."
  • "Fit just as represented. Comfortable material and stylish."
  • "These pants fit really well like if I've always worn them!"
  • "I wear a 50x30 and it perfectly fits me!"
  • "These pants fit great and are extremely comfortable."
  • "They fit wonderful, and comfortable."

Cons:

  • "It appeared the sizing was off. I'm a 36 waist and though they were marked correctly, they fit more like a 38."
  • "They are way too loose because pants 2 sizes larger than what I ordered was shipped to me."
  • "Had to size down from what I normally order."
  • "The other problem is the waist was much too loose."
  • "The first pair I got was the correct size. But the second pair which was also labeled 29x32 was SO MUCH SMALLER."
  • "Very baggy fit. Size charts are off."
  • "Little large in waist, but maybe stretch material helped!"

Pockets and Closures

Pros:

  • "I can put my whole hand into the pockets without undoing the buttons so that's not a problem."
  • "All pockets are easily accessible and the button closures are a plus over the Velcro."
  • "Pockets are well placed."
  • "The front cargo pockets are roomy without having an obtrusive, grapefruit packing look."
  • "Pockets are roomy for my work keys, personal and work phones, knife, and other things."
  • "The side and back pockets are nice and rather deep."
  • "Extra hidden pocket behind each cargo pocket (how cool is that!)."

Cons:

  • "The back pocket is too loose."
  • "Pockets are too shallow."
  • "Packets are too small. Wallet sticks out of the top of the back pocket."
  • "The biggest issue is the size of the pockets, all of them. They aren't deep enough, especially to hold a cell phone."
  • "Cargo pockets aren't very deep and bulge a lot more than other cargos I own when filled with something."
  • "The side/hip pockets are not deep enough."
  • "The back pockets are very shallow."
