I was looking for pants in this style that are not chinese made, and found them. Haven't put them through intense use yet, but so far I'm very satisfied.

One point that may be of help : The "long" inseam is really quite long - it appears to be around 36 inch inseam. If you are really tall in the legs, you are in luck- if not, then likely the regular leg length would be good.

Waist sizing seems "standard".

I love these pants and they're pretty much all I wear. They're reliable as far as size goes and they hold up well. (I'll admit I'm not very hard on my pants.) The pair I bought last year has faded considerably, but that doesn't bother me. They have shrunk in length, though, by a couple of inches. But, as cheap as they are, I just buy four or five pairs a year and give away or sell the old, shorter ones.

Excellent product. Was exactly what we were looking for, and for half of the price! Will be ording again soon!

Bought these pants for a costume. They run a little big, so read the other reviews that suggest buying a smaller size then do it. I didn't and have pants that actually look big on me. Not complaining, but it was a surprise.

These pants are pretty awesome. Way more comfy than jeans, with increased flexibility and way more pocket room. They're even more durable under certain circumstances. However, I'm a headbanger and martial artist, and thus have tested them both in the dojo and the pit. They didn't hold up so well in either environments. I own about five pair, all torn heavily from metal shows, and signed by the headlining band of the show at which the pants met their demise. Alongside this, I've lost three pair to martial arts. On the other end of the spectrum, they make excellent kitchen pants and general work clothes.

However, in the area of fashion, these pants exceed expectations. I generally wear the olive drab colour with a matching BDU shirt decorated with patches and a pair of black suspenders, along with a pair of heavy boots. It wasn't even a month before this military attire started catching on among my local metal scene. It's also worth mentioning that the suspenders tend to increase durability, as they lift the pants and mitigate the tension on them in the hip area, as most tears are in the crotch and thigh area.

All in all, these pants are awesome. However, don't expect them to survive the most extreme conditions. Though, a pair of torn pants at the end of a show do make a great conversation starter with the ladies.
