I like the model 47's riveted pockets (stitched back pockets of my Levis always tore out prematurely). But for the price paid for this pair,  I expected a heavier denim --- these seem only a little thicker than flannel to me. They are about 30% synthetic material and may be a little warm for summer wear in Texas. On the plus side, compared to older 47s I have, the coin pocket is much shallower.

Update:  After a few washings, I noticed the front pocket was sewn poorly and so the fabric gathers where it should lie flat and the pocket lining tends to ride up and peek out. The outer seam on the other leg has a twist to it.

Cutting one star.
