Review: Lighter versions of my favorite TruSpecs - So five stars should tell you what I'll be discussing but I'm also comparing these to my now 5 year champion TruSpec pants. Yes I've been purchasing ONLY TruSpec pants for 5 years now. I still have the first pair I purchased (A little worn but still wearable). I'll be discussing the differences and similarities. Compared similarities first. -Material Same stuff. Poly/cotton blend. Feels the same. Looks the same and has the same teflon coating. -Stitching Same again. Double stitching in most places. Hems and seams are all similar and of the same quality. -Fit I ordered the same size I've worn for five years in the TruSpecs and they fit great. I'm a tree climber and these provide plenty of mobility and coverage. -Durability Since I've only worn them a few days I can't put a five year stamp on them. I feel confident they will stand up just fine. Differences -Color Grey! That's the main reason I gave these a shot. Grey is a favored color of mine and I couldn't resist. -Pocket flaps The cargo pockets on the knees and the clip/cell pocket have a cover. The butt pockets don't have flaps though. I haven't given them a good test. I am usually digging wood chips out of most pockets without flaps but I'm hoping the way these are cut will prove to be defensive against those pesky chips. -Waste band There are more belt loops. The TruSpecs have a very unique waste band though. It has a hidden elastic band. At first glance you wouldn't notice but it adds a lot of weight and under a belt can be a little painful after a long day. These are lighter and more comfy. I'm not a fan of the scrunchy stuff though. -Pocket Config The TruSpecs also have unique pockets. Well, pockets in pockets. I don't use most of them so they are just added weight for me. I really like the cellphone/clip pocket, it's great! No more fishing for the phone. The butt pockets are a little tougher to get used to. Maybe just a learning curve. I'll report back on an Update. I do like the cargo pockets being lower. They don't get in the way of my climbing harness. -Gusseted Crotch Hmmm.... I've never blown out a crotch on the TruSpecs. Never seen a need for a heavier seam. It may take some getting used to. There is a noticeable bit of extra material between the legs but it should soften after a few washes. Summary Over all I really like these pants so far after two days of wear. Still not sure about the tool strap on the back pocket. May prove to be useful. It doesn't seem to get in the way of the wallet pocket like I thought. Without all the extra waste band material and the extra "Pocket pockets" which I think account for the weight difference, these 5.11s are the ultra light cousins of my TruSpecs. will be ordering a few more pair and wear these out in the field for some real testing and report back with what I hope is some positive findings.
Review: Most comfortable and functional pants I've owned! - I grew up wearing jeans. I like the feeling of "rugged and durable, but comfortable at the same time". I don't like wearing sweats or softer material pants because my legs feel... unprotected? That may sound crazy, but I've gotten so used to feeling something substantial on my legs and it gives a sense of security (yes, possibly false security and it's purely psychological). Jeans, however, can be heavy and restrictive. I always look for "relaxed fit" or "loose fit", and that seems to help. Over the past few years I've discovered that products designed for military and law enforcement use tend to be high quality and work very well for their intended purpose. I'm not in the military or a cop, and I'm sure those who ARE might laugh at what I just said, because they probably use some gear that was poorly designed or has other issues. My experience with tactical clothing and gear for civilian use has been very positive. So I thought I'd give these pants a try as a stubstitute for the carpenter jeans I normally wear for everything that isn't work or church. Town, hiking, around the house, etc. I couldn't be more pleased! These pants fit perfectly when I ordered my normal jean size. They are very comfortable and more flexible than jeans. I really like they way they feel. I don't think they are baggy, but I do prefer looser fitting pants. Because they are 60% polyester 40% cotton, they don't breath quite as well as 100% cotton, but this blend also makes them more durable and resistant to spills. I got caught in the rain wearing them, and when I got inside, I literally slapped the water off them leaving them mostly dry. They aren't waterproof if you really get soaked, obviously. I ordered a pair of Blackhawk Lightweight Tactical pants at the same time for comparison. The Blackhawk feel heavier and have more pockets. I probably prefer the 5.11 because of the lighter, more comfortable feel and more colors available. I like "charcoal" and "coyote brown" better than regular "khaki tan". Both are great pants and I put them right back on as soon as I wash them. One thing to note, the 5.11 Taclite Pro have an gathered material, elastic waistband, while the Blackhawk Lightweight Tactical have a smooth, expanding waistband (internal elastic bands and sliding tabs, instead of gathered material) which might be more comfortable, but again, heavier feeling. So bottom line, I use them for a wide range activities from shopping to weekend hiking and photography. They are handy for just about any activity. Are they worth paying a little more than jeans? In my opinion, definitely!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Other than the wash of colors, what would be the effect of washing this in warm water and dried in perm press temperature?**
A: I wash mine on permanent press using charlies detergent and they come out fine. Warm or cold water. I dry mine on delicate only because it provides the best wrinkle free drying, but they are tough pants and would do fine on the regular cycle. Quality pants, they wash and dry well.

**Q: Is the item durable?**
A: I have owned two pairs of these pants and am now replacing one pair due to a tear from a very sharp edge not a defect in the pant.  I have owned these two pair since 2016 and wear them at least 4 times a week.  They virtually look new in terms of stitching and fabric wear.  Excellent quality and durability.  Fit is excellent as well with the forgiving expandable waist (great for concealed carry use as well).  Would definitely recommend.

**Q: How big are the belt loops? 1.75"?**
A: The belt loops are slightly larger than 1.75". I'm using a nice stiff spec op brand better BDU belt 1.75" the perfect fit.

**Q: Which color is most similar to tan, coyote brown or khaki?**
A: I've seen the coyote brown recently in store i'd say its a dark tan . while the khaki is almost a cream like color .

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simply the best..
*by B***L on July 13, 2015*

By far the best overall pants that I've ever owned and worn. I was always a jeans guy for work and play. I work doing landscape installation and maintenance. These pants have so many great qualities I don't even know where to begin!! The lightweight material has to be my number one favorite quality of them. But it's hard to choose a favorite quality when they have so many good features. They dry out so quickly if caught in a rain storm or get them wet some other way since they are not all cotton. The toughness is second to none!!! I would end up ripping jeans or other cargo type pants within a short time of first wearing them and then that rip will just grow, of course, drastically shortening the life of my work pants. Not the 5.11tac lite pro. They seem to be indestructible!! The pockets these pants have are awesome as well! So many, strategically placed and sized to make use of the available 'real-estate'. I could never go back to jeans just because of the lack of pockets compared to these cargo pants. Compared to regular cargo pants the pockets are also better but more importantly is with regular cargo pants I'd have destroyed within a month or two for work. I still have my first pair of tac lite pro's from over 10 months ago and they are in great shape!! They also repell staining but that coating will eventually wear off after enough washes.. That's fine. They look good enough that I can wear them to a semi formal event with a button down shirt and still look good, not over the top or 'tac-t-cool' or anything like that. They may not be suitable for a wedding, but then again, maybe they could be!!! Several months ago I ordered these tac lite pro pants from another online retailer and fell in love with them! Recently I decided to buy more and chose Amazon.com for my purchases this time. Of course exactly what I expected as far as quality, price was 20% less then former retailer I purchased from, and they arrived at my door super quick! I tell everyone about these pants and can't say enough good things about them.
