I have owned these pants for 2 years now and just ordered another pair.  They are great!  They are comfortable, durable and have enough pockets for all of my stuff.  I have them pressed so they are even ok with a sport coat.  Every guy should have a couple of pairs of these pants. If you want to know what dad wants for his birthday..get him great pants with enough pockets.  The new pair even came with the belt pictured which was an added benefit.
