these pants are great I have the army green. their soft and fit great i wear 32 30 and im 160 lbs and 5'8 3/4" tall these fit great around the waist there not tight sometimes when i buy 32" its very close to being tight and i feel like I need a 33" but not in these pants the 32" fits great. as far as durability? their great so far. I wouldn't wear them for walking threw brush or yard work when in your knees in the gravel. the material is very soft i like it. I recommend these pants. wearing them right now.
