Begun the great debate about cargo pants vs jeans has

I'm willing to pay extra for a nice pair of selvage jeans made in the US or Japan, but I saw these at a local store last year and could only justify the price if I won the lottery. Attachment 50946

Too high, but I get why folks would pay: $60
Ludicrous: $100

That sounds about right.

And $10-20 jeans and HK pistols sounds balanced priorities to me.

They have a version of these "travel pants" at COSTCO also. I bought multiple pairs and used them on my recent 10 day California vacation - very comfortable and some have a thigh pocket for phones.

My requirements for pants:
1. Deep pockets
2. Not baggy
3. Mid-rise
4. Leg opening drapes over top of shoes/boots
5. Flexible is nice
6. Under $40.

Seems like a unicorn to me. My Urban Pipeline bootcut jeans from Kohls fit this bill except they have a low rise.

I like Dockers Everyday Khakis. Bought them on sale for $19.99.:cool:

WTF??? Those pants cost the same as a CZ Shadow2. I guess some people have different priorities.
