The Stone Vintage Paratrooper fatigues are great in photos but if you are not
a first responder or use these pants for utility purposes this will not be a
functional pair of pants. I have owned the columbia brand and the fit is
totally different. I rarely even think about returning any clothes but I had
to actually return these pants. The XL is actually a 42. You would require a
large in this style and color to fit a 38-40 and not look like a clown.

I just realize that the only items I can't purchase online are clothes.

6' 185lbs. Can shop off the rack without alterations. 38-40 in pants.
And I don't wear tight fitting clothes or baggy clothes falling off my
backside. Hope this assists in your search for a comfortable pair of
pants that you can wear and not have to be a first responder of reliving
being in the military.
