You got me. I bought a pair and they're great.
These have been a real revelation. I don't think I've worn any other pants in a calendar year, funerals excepted.
Hope you wash them.

Not a fan of my pair.

I have 2 from banana republic and one from vuori that are in heavy rotation. I also moved my "sweatpant" to the soccer version of these pants for doing... athletic type stuff.

My issue with the one that is specifically linked here are the cuffs or whatever you call the elastic thing at the end of the legs. I don't like that... at all. I don't know why, but it just bugs me. I tend to wear long-ish socks, and those cuffs tend to pull them down too much.

Yeah, I have a couple pairs of those kind of pants. One Vuori and one REI. Got both of them as gifts. I wear shorts for six or eight months of the year but it looks like it’s just about time to start long pants season. I like those pants so I’m kind of looking forward to it.

I thought guys in your age bracket wore sock garter belts, so you shouldn't have a problem.

I think my issue is that the fabric is too heavy for Florida living. I don't mind the elastic ankle cuffs.
