I purchased this pair of pants over a year ago and really appreciated the price, fit, color, easy care (machine washable) and professional appearance. I liked it so much that I also bought the same pants in black, blue and oatmeal. The grey pair lasted about a year before it shrunk enough to be noticeable.
Two months ago, I purchased the exact same pair/size. There was a small bit of frayed fabric near one of the waist seams but not bad enough to return. This weekend, I removed the pants from the dryer only to discover the hem on one of the pant legs had come completely undone! Unlike other brands/retailers that stand by their products, there is no possibility of returning the item. Needless to say, I won’t be buying these pants again and am very disappointed.

The main reason I purchased these slacks is that my husband hates lint on black slacks, and several of the reviews mentioned that they were lint free. Well, not only are they lint free, they are also very easy to care for and maintain. The few creases present when I opened them were easily erased with a steam iron. The slacks fit perfectly and my husband liked them so much that we immediately ordered another pair in gray. The gray slacks look equally attractive and easy to care for. Both pairs are very lightweight, probably most appropriate for spring through fall. I highly recommend these slacks. Oh–one other thing: The description (I think, or maybe it’s the answer to one of the questions) says that the slacks are dry clean only. However, the care label says they are machine washable. I intend to go with the care label.

These pants fit perfectly, I needed a 29″ inseam which is hard to find. These pants are a summer weight fabric, I would say a medium gray color, not as dark as I expected, but a good color. They were purchased with the idea of being for the fall/winter, however they are more lightweight and will work in the fall, but probably not into the winter. They will be ideal for spring/summer/fall in mid-Atlantic, east coast weather.

The pants looked and felt great. They fit me like a glove, which is why I buy Kenneth Cole reaction pants. I have purchased several pairs over the last few months, and I have read complaints on reviews but have never had one until now. I opened the package and the left hem was totally undone. No subtlety here – very obvious that theses pants should not have been shipped like this. I understand amazon relies on automation to make their business model work, but there needs to be better quality control. I am returning.

Nice fit and feel, the fabric is a bit on the thin side but I live in an area that’s pretty warm year around so works for me. Got a bit of stretch, very comfortable.
Docking one star since one of the hems came undone after 2 washes. I don’t have skills so had to take to an alteration shop to get it fixed. Rest of the pants seem to be holding up ok. These are relatively cheap dress pants so I guess I don’t expect them to last forever.
Navy color is a bit lighter than other “navy” colored items I have but dark enough for me to wear to office.

There are some pairs of pants that you find that just fit perfectly and want to buy several pairs; for me, these are those pants! Definitely dress pants so if you’re in an office or professional setting, they’re perfect. I’m 6’2″ so finding length 34 pants that aren’t secretly length 35 and drag on the ground is a struggle; these (in my opinion) are great. True to color and true to size. Overall a great buy!

After about 6 months, the hem at the end of the pant leg came undone. I am VERY easy on clothes and have been a working professional for 30 years. I typically will wear dress pants for 3-5 years before retiring and I have never seen this happen. Very poor craftsmanship.

I like these pants and ordered 4 pairs actually. However this pair I received was clearly a return and had been used by a previous customer. The bag was opened and no tags were attached to the pants or anywhere to be found in the bag. Very disappointed since I received another pair the same day from another shipping facility and that pair was in a sealed bag and had multiple tags attached to those pair. I will be returning these due to bad customer service.

Picked up these pants a few years & loved the fit. It’s a great value if one can pick ’em up for <$20. Besides the material being ultra thin (not sure if its a con since that's great for the summer), I have no complaints.
If it means anything, I picked up 2 more pairs last month!

purchase my work pants from Kenneth Cole and love the fur of “reaction”. These were horrible material and the fur wasn’t great which was surprising. Too cheap all around so back they went!
