CQR Men's Vent Stretch Pants, Quick Dry Lightweight Casual Cargo Pants, Water Resistant Straight-Fit Utility Work Pants

I really like this pant. The stretch fabric is very comfortable. It may have been water resistant before washing them but not now. Not an issue for me, I did not buy them for that. And the quality is good. They have been washed many times and I don't see any fading. They wear well in the knees and don't loosen up like cotton jeans do. And they breath like advertised.

The material is very durable and lightweight (the stitches are also strong), would definitely recommend for hiking and working. The vents work great so winter time you will definitely get a little nip but these are gonna be great for summer time and anything in between. They do seem to be somewhat hydrophobic, water rolls off and it takes some time completely submerged before they take on any water. However I do not know if that will change with time at this point. The pants shrink ever so slightly and the initial folds come out after a wash or two. They are not super form fitting but definitely not a baggy fit either, just perfect -and I'm very picky on that sort of thing haha. Definitely will be buying more pairs of these!

These pants are great! Pro's: These pants fit true to size. They're VERY comfortable and do not get too hot. The material is not too thick and I really like the "vents" that allow airflow behind the knees. I also really like the gray color! Con's: I haven't had this issue, but I'm not sure how strong the seems are that hold the "vents" behind the knees. Summary: I really like these pants so far. They're nice enough to wear to work, wear hiking, or (I imagine) use for tactical environments. I'll most likely be buying more pairs of these in the near future!

Really disappointed with CQR. They used to the absolute best quality work pants on the market. They stopped making the two styles I liked the most and since then almost all their pants have elastic waistbands that make you look like your wearing tactical diapers. When it comes to this style, they fit true to size and are very comfortable. The material is not good for outdoor or heavy duty work, better for office or light duty work. The material is stretchy like damn near all pants these days, BUT they don't have that horrible bunched up elastic waistband, which is a huge plus. As mentioned in some other reviews, the useless vent holes don't have the mesh lining like previous styles from CQR, so make sure your wearing socks when you put these on, because you may just jam your big toe in one of the vents. Also, the legs are slightly tapered and they won't work with western style work boots. The stretchy material will not support any mildly heavy gear that you like to carry in your pockets such as flashlights and multitools. The pocket edges are not reinforced at all. The cargo pockets are oddly sized and placed, at least for me. I prefer the extra pockets to be on or in front of the the side seam instead of behind it, so you're not sitting on may gear when you hop in the truck. The zipper is a whole other issue. Guys, the opening is only 4 inches in length and the bottom sits pretty high. It is NOT going to be fun to even attempt to go standing up. So now you have to take off any gear on your belt and unbuckle. With all that said, I'll keep these pants, as they are pretty comfortable and they look great. They're just not going to work for work.

Fit great, feel good, wash and dry and look good without ironing.

These pants are lightweight and breathable with just the right amount of stretch. They dry quickly after hikes or working outdoors, and the water-resistant fabric keeps you comfortable in unpredictable weather. The cargo pockets are practical without being bulky, and the overall fit is true to size. Great choice for anyone who likes versatile and durable pants for travel or everyday activities.

These are super-comfortable, stretchy in every direction. The pocket pattern is great - I like having lots of small pockets for poop bags for my dog, a dedicated narrow pocket for my pocketknife. I like that these extra pockets don’t have flaps like military-style cargo pants. Concerns, all of which are minor, not enough to knock off a star: I don’t see much point in the vents. The material is light enough to be suitable for warm weather. For me, these vents around the knees and groin are just entry points for ticks, and I will probably sew them shut. The zippered pocket adds bulk, and I don’t expect to ever use it. I’d rather see them eliminate it and knock off a few dollars. Stitching quality is ok, not great. There are several loose threads in various places such as the outer pantleg seam. None have come unraveled yet, but they look like they will. Elastic waist is super-comfy but a little too much. I have to wear a belt with these or they will fall down to plumber-butt level. But I would take this waist over the gathered-elastic style waist any day. I bought 2 pair, one gray and one “operator navy”. This navy is black, no hint of blue. I’ll probably keep them, but I wanted blue pants, not black. To repeat, none of these “concerns” are enough for me to ding these pants -1 star. I like them a lot and think they are a good buy. If they would eliminate the vents and the zipper pocket to reduce some NVA complexity, bulk, and cost, I would LOVE them.

3 stars but thats because I received the wrong color pants. I got navy instead of black. Here a picture of the pants both colors. The pants are nice but the colors look faded as if they were washed 10th time. Not true black. But still nice pants they are not to baggy, im a skinny person and they are nice. I hate baggy
