They looked weird at first because the finish of the pants is almost shiney or glossy compared to the other normal jean material my 527s are made out of.  I recieve compliments on them wherever I go, from the color & glossiness, to the pocket detail on the back. And they fit really well as the finish seems to not bind on undies or socks & glides over your skin when standing from sitting & visa versa. They have really cool contrast stitching which just brings out the interesting color of these pants. They are like a grayish-silverish-light blue in overall color, so it would be similar to a light wash as far as a jeans look goes.

This pant essentially fits like the 527(which I have in this color too) but with smaller leg openings from knee down. The inside side seam twists around to nearly center of the leg(heel), which looks weird laying the pants flat but sits right when on. The buttons on these pants are big compared to my Sail 527s, which makes the pants cute but you feel like you're sitting on two rocks because of the center placement of the buttons. I think the 527 offset buttons were a good idea that should have been utilized in the 514(especially since the buttons are bigger)
 Who wants to sit on rocks??

But I love the color & the styling overall. Look like more expensive jeans & material due to details & sheen of material.
