These Pants are very TIGHT, just as tight as 511's

These are equally skin tight as Levis's 511's, so don't waste your time if 511's are too tight for your liking. Very disappointed with Levi's for not making a size that is in-between skin tight and too loose.

No complaints about the pants themselves *except* they're tighter than other carpenter jeans I have at the same measurements. But such is the way of all clothing. One company's XL is another's L and vice versa.

I own another Russell Athletic pair of pants that are comfortably loose. I ordered these in two different colors only to discover that in spite of the same size as the older pair, these are uncomfortably skin-tight.

I would give the pants a 1 star review, but I'll take some of the blame on this one. Not sure why I would have high expectations for such an inexpensive pair of pants. They are way too small and I followed the size chart. Guess I'll use them as long johns for the winter as an extra layer.

I'm a 38 waist and these seem to be a bit on the tighter side compared to my other slacks same brand.

Even though I wear 30/30 and have other Levis that are 511 and are 30/30. This pair of jeans was way too small. It was much tighter than other 511s I have and the waist seemed like a 28

I really like the look of these pants and I wish they fit me better. The 511s say that they are a slim fit but they are huge in the butt and waist in my opinion. But if they fit you well, I would highly recommend these. I ended up having to return them.

I bought these pants in the size I always wear but they are tight.  The butt of the pants don't come up high enough and your drawers will show.

I like the soft fabric, and the price. Unfortunately the fit makes them unwearable.

I typically wear Levi's 511's, and I would say that the length and waist of these Dickies fit true compared to the 511s. These Dickies are slightly more tight and thighs and the seat but EXTREMELY more tight in the legs. They are like wearing compression stockings.

Unfortunately I washed them and now don't think I can return them to Amazon

Always seems these pants fit much tighter when I buy them from the local hardware store, same size from Amazon always seems biger in the waist and I have to wear a belt...

Bought these about a week ago and I'm not very happy with my purchase. I usually wear a size 38 but figured I'd by a 40 so I can wear with a belt and they would fit loosely. I am tall and somewhat average. The waist fits just right, but the pants legs are very tight... even for my chicken legs! They are too uncomfortable to sit on my motorcycle.

The jacket was nice, however the pants were EXTREMELY tight. I have a rather slender person coming in at 5'9" 150 pounds, but these pants are comparable to women's leggings in terms of tightness. Should label this as compression fit rather than slim fit.

Good pants, but a bit too small and tight for 49 lb 6 year old.

Listen to the reviews.  These pants run TIGHT in the waist.  I'm 6'4" and 220lbs and normally wear 36" waist pants.  These things fit like 33/34" waist.  The quality and weight of the pant seems good.  They will be good for cooler weather, but appear to be breathable still.  I returned the original pair I bought and reordered a size larger.

I wear a 42 waist in all pants except for Dickies apparently.  Extremely tight for what are supposed to be working mans jeans.  I advise order a size larger than what you typically wear.  I unfortunately found this out by ordering 3 different pairs of Dickies at once.  Decided not to return them as I'm losing weight and will hopefully fit in them soon - LOL.

I purchased these shorts as I already own a pair of 5.11 Tactical Pants (Style: 74251) In waist size 44 that fit me rather well. I expected the sorts to be cut the came as the pants just shorter and would fit well. I was wrong. These shorts fit me far to tight to wear. It would seem that 5.11 uses a different cut for their shorts then they do for their pants.

Bottom line. If you already own a pair of 5.11 pants don't assume that the waist size on those pants will fit you for the shorts.

the pants arrived in a timely fashion however they are too tight. I wear this size in well over 10 other pair and the others fit fine. These are way too tight. I am not sure I can wear them.
