This was my first time, ordering these pants. I read a lot of reviews, to determine sizing. I'm 6', 225 lbs. I don't have thick, athletic legs. I normally wear a 38X32 Slim Fit in jeans (Wrangler). After reading quite a few reviews, I decided to try these, in a 40X30. A lot of reviews said the waist runs small, and the length is long. So, I rolled the dice, and went with the 40X30. I couldn't be happier. These fit like they were made for me. The waist is comfortable. Not tight, not loose. The 30" length is great. Lays nicely on my boots. Not too short, not too long. A really nice fit. Front pockets are deep, and roomy. Cargo pockets are a nice size. Not huge and bulky, like some Cargo pants. Very useful. Next, the Cell Phone pocket. I have a Samsung Galaxy S8+, with an Otterbox case. In the case, the phone measures 3-1/2" W X 6-3/4" H. It slides right into the Cell Phone pocket, with enough room to put my thumb and index finger into the pocket, to grab the phone at the sides, or front and back. Nice fit, and just right for my phone.
I'm very happy with these pants, and will be ordering more, now that I know the right size, and that the features of the pockets, work well for me.
Not many reviews give good details on their personal size and weight, as compared to the size pants they ordered. I hope my review will enlighten those who are hesitant to order, or at least, give you a guideline.
