Its hard for me to find dress slacks that are comfortable, fit well, and look good. Ive been wearing these pants for a couple of years now and have gone through maybe 4 pairs. I haven't had the rips and tears that others here have complained about, but its obvious that the fabric quality is lacking. Mine generally get worn out after 4-6 months of regular use. They start to develop visible wear around the belt line, or the edges of the pockets start fraying. But I keep buying them because they fit so well.
