Latest uniform pants in a long 1.25 school years of failed uniform pants. These were a reasonable price at $19.99. Yes, I know at Tarjay and Wally's, they're cheaper; they're also cheaply made. Those stores must get their stock from the same place as Academy, because EVERY pair, with the *first washing* (not even worn yet), the stitching in the crotch came out. It's like the sewer didn't get the fabric into the serger all the way.

I have had to sew the freakin' crotch closed, since LAST March (when we had to buy some uniform bottoms to finish out the year), in at least 4 pairs of shorts, and 6 pairs of trousers.

Somehow, my son manages to outgrow his uniform bottoms around Easter every year, and we have to get a couple pair, just to get through May. So far, these Izod trousers have held up, and they look nice. The few extra bucks looks like it may be well worth it, if it keeps me from having to sew crotches closed.
