I work 12 hour shifts as an RN and I want a pair of cargo pants that don't pinch my abdomen by the end of the day. These Dickies relaxed cargo pants are comfy with the non-elastic waistband below the belly button. The fabric is soft and appears durable. The waistband does pooch out at the small of my back which I can fix with a belt if I want. The cargo pockets are further down my short legs so I have to bend to reach them, but that is a minor detail. Friends at work are asking where I got them, so I'm taking that as a compliment. Highly recommended.
