The pants are nice and they color is great. They do fit tighter than a 28 should fit. I have a pair of 27s in the same pants, but blue jeans and they fit better. The main complaint I have though is the material in the waist. The stitching or how they stitched them is horrid. It rubs and cuts into the skin so bad that by the end of the day I have a couple of spots on my skin that are raw. Get at least 1 size up and check the waist to make sure you can handle the material.
