I believe that these are the best-looking, longest wearing pants you will ever find. I bought them for my nephew to wear in a very hot and greasy commercial kitchen, hoping they would be as good as the Dickie medical uniforms I used to wear to work in a hospital. They came through with flying colors! They wash and dry like a dream, with no shrinkage, very little fading, and no wrinkles - even after 10 or more times through the washer and dryer, with my nephew mostly washing them in hot water. I would highly recommend these pants to anyone.
