I use these pants for work and working out and was so frustrated when all the womens pants were changed to impractical low rise style without function trash that fell below my hip line.  I couldn't find a single pair of normal pants that actually had a waistline that fell on my waistline and that I could tuck my shirt into.  I decided to switch over to mens and ordered these.

I was concerned about the quality based on other reviews, but they exceeded my expectations.  These are jersey pants, not sweat pants.  I think that is why some reviewers said they were thin.  They are not thin at all, the quality is quite excellent for jersey style pants. The waist band is nice and thick and stays in place and has a draw string too, though the waistband holds the pants in place perfectly.

The only reason I'm giving a 4 star instead of a 5 star is because of the pockets.  The pockets are slit about 8" along the side hem from the waist band down, which causes them to stick out on the sides.  When I tried a pair of these on in the store, though they didn't have my size, I noticed they had been purchased and returned by someone who had sewn the pockets shut.  Now I understand why they were sewn shut.  The pockets bunch and stick out on the sides, so I think I will be ordering a few more pairs of these and sewing the pockets shut as well.

Otherwise, I'm totally happy with these pants!
