Previous Feedback
Comments: These are good quality pants. I have had them for over a year and they still don't have any holes or rips. The sizing runs a little big, but its not that bad.
From: ??
Comments: I will say that they are bigger than most other pants so if you are looking to get a size large and you are around 33-34," I would go with a medium. As for the pants, I couldn't ask for a better pair. Great look and great feel. Definitely have great mobility in these pants and very durable.
From: Jake at IW Hockey
Comments: I bought the large based on waist size. These things are HUGE! Way too big. The adjustment straps at the top must be cinched to the fullest extent possible. The legs are very large, so much so that the velcro at the bottom of the leg can't keep the excess material at the bottom of the leg from sagging down ... it's a mess. But, the construction and fabric is quality. The sizing sucks
From: Nog
Comments: Nice quality so far. LOVE the subtle design, but most important part is the fitting; just right and not baggy.
From: Mateo
Comments: These are awesome! Seemingly well made. Fit great, feel great, look great.
From: BK Atlanta Georgia
Comments: These pants are worth the money. The velcro bottom straps and design of the panels, etc. are perfect compared to my old mission pants from a few years back. The not over the top black color with white lettering looks great relative to some of the other brands out there.
From: ???
Comments: Best pant on the market! Tough in just the right places. Air flow in all the right places. Velcro system eliminates need for tape. Waist closure is simple. Just a great pant. I play defense, so I want a tough pant that won't weigh me down. These are very light, and tough in the right spots. My only concern is the velcro bottom may wear/tear if open and closed alot. I just don't undo it once I find the right amount of tightness.
