Good all around pant.
8/10 Likelihood to recommend

“I used these pants for duty wear 50+ hours a week for over 3 years. Only pair I had to throw away was a pair I ripped on a piece of metal. They’re comfortable and versatile. Only downside is they quit making them in all tan. Especially since the tan matched all other Propper clothing as well as Tru-Spec.”

good consistent quality
Ive tried 5.11 truspec and propper. so far i've had the best luck with propper and tru spec a close second.... so im on my 8th pair of propper and bought a set for each family member with this batch.

I'm not a tactical professional or anything, I mostly wear this at work for the pockets and also to cover my CCW. Not as heavy as my last vest (Truspec), good thing. I've yet to wear this in warm/hot weather but it feels lighter. I love the pen and cell phone pockets on the left chest area. I could do without the Molle straps. I do like the lack of collar and half zipper, 2 way zipper is always welcome. I do wish it had some actual inside chest pockets. The dump pockets are nice but they are huge. Some things are a little excessive and some things are just right. Finding a quality everyday all season vest is a challenge, I think I found a pretty good vest.

Much better than truspec, I ordered from them nearly 3 months ago and still don’t have pants.

The pants fit damn near perfectly, are solidly put together, and have all the things I like about BDUs with none of the things I can do without. Plenty of pockets. The perfect pants for work and comfortable enough for casual wear. As an added bonus this brand doesn't pander to the far right the way companies like Truspec do. I like my military style clothing without fascism.
