I have worn many other types of standard "cargo" pants but none of them compare to the look, feel, and overall set up of the performance cotton pants from Blackhawk! Too bad they don't offer them in more colors and styles, including their ever popular Multi-Cam. I will be adding there Lightweight Tactical shorts to my collection as well. Oh, almost forgot, I am 6'2 225lbs with an athletic build and these run true to size. I usually wear a 36 as I like my pants and shorts a lil on the loose/baggy side and the 36 in these are spot on. The flexible waisband is the icing on the cake so even if i do put on a few lbs I am squared away still. AWESOME PANTS!!!
