Waist Runs Big - Sparse Stitching in the Waistband - Holes Develop Quickly - Crotch Too Long

Once upon a time, Russell was a good quality manufacturer of athletic wear but they've gotten cheap like everyone else. The waists run very big on these pants, which is contrary to previous versions, and the drawstrings are much flimsier - I can see some people breaking them if they pull too hard. The stitching on the insides of the waists is very sparse and spaced far apart, and you're able to see some of the waistband material after a few washes - I do foresee these pants falling apart in a relatively short time because I see holes by the pockets after six weeks. The pant legs are extremely long and people will step on the back of the pants and ruin them. The crotch area is VERY long and you have to wear these up to your armpits to get the crotch right and keep the pant legs from dragging. I believe these were a labeling mistake by Russell, that they're considered a tall/long, and they sold them for pennies on the dollar to Amazon - Amazon, in turn, doesn't say anything either and sells them for full price as regular length pants for amazing profit percentage - think about it - the legs are WAY too long, the crotch is WAY too long, and the waists are WAY too big - they both benefit - Russell gets rid of mistakes and Amazon makes a killer profit. Have stranger things happened? Sure they have ...
