These jeans are made of a mid weight denim that seems to have a stretchy quality. The material feels substantial and of a high quality and very comfortable. The overall assembly and construction is also of a very high quality, looking at the stitching, rivets that secure the pockets internally and even the density of the pocket material itself. Pockets are also generously sized and don't reject my over sized cell phone like a few other pairs of jeans I have. The color I received looks exactly like what is pictured in Amazon's photo. It has a subtle worn look so looks like it's been worn in comfortably. Enough fading to add interest but not overdone. The fit is described as relaxed and is definitely generous in the legs which I like though I'm slim. The length only comes, it seems at 34", two inches longer than my preferred size. That's no doubt done to curb inventory issues, but at this price point I think you should be allowed to receive something more suited to your fit without needing to shlep to a tailor to make an adjustment or settle for looking too sloppy with a massive break. Of all the fit dimensions and cuts, the one that I really don't like is the triangular "yoke" in the rear below the belt line, though that's probably not the correct label. There's just too much fabric there for anyone that doesn't have an oversized posterior to fill up the space so it actually juts out unless I pull the waist unnaturally high. The other caveat is the price. While it is very well made and seems to have a superior denim, if anyone is completely honest, I need to ask, what would justify it being so expensive. I've been partial to Joe's Jeans and after being given a pair to review months ago, went out and bought 4 more pairs for fear the style and cut might be discontinued! Those were a similar price, though I admittedly shopped around and found them on sale at various locations. One other small thing is that I prefer the least amount of ornamentation and stitching on the back pockets. These have "squiggles" that look either like two suspension bridges, or two slim yoga masters doing the downward dog pose. Would prefer just blank pockets. In summary, I love the feel, heft and quality of the denim and construction, including the generous pocket capacity and comfortable fit. Don't like the extra length, especially in this relaxed fit. Hate the too generous butt area that requires an untucked shirt to cover it not to look emaciated. I will be wearing these regularly, but if I bought another pair, would search for a discount or a sale.
