My husband loves these jeans and he has tried many brands. They wash up nicely and he can wear them without having to break them in. They have a nice fit without being too tight or too loose. The ONLY problem we can see is that we wish his size would come in the darkest color available. For some reason, when we ordered them, the deepest color was Deepstone, which is a rather gray/blue color. He would prefer a darker blue color.
