I'm always tentative at the idea of buying clothes online and European clothes in general. Not because of quality, but due to sizing issues. No such problems with these pants - they are what they say they are in sizing.

The fabric is a heavy ripstop with great sewing at all the seams.

The elastic band is well hidden and gentle, aiming for a better fit than as serious adjustment. If I were to carry anything heavy in the cargo pockets I'd opt for a belt. Or take up hip-hop. Odds are on a belt, though.

Inseam seems to match the waist. The 34 inch waist has a 34 inch inseam, which thanks to a bit of middle age spread means they're a tad too long for me. But they'd blouse into boots gloriously. There is a pull elastic string/rope at the bottom of each and a neat little velcro loop on the inside of the pant leg to hold the excess one makes with a pinch holder to keep them in place.

There are two small holes stitched into the inner top side of the front pockets; no idea what they're for other than having a nice way to sort of covertly scratch one's self. The double fabric knee area is velcro'd at the bottom for pads.

All told, a quality buy and a solid pair of pants that will last a long time.
