Amazon Essentials Men’s Athletic-Fit Jean

Great pants!
I bought a pair of these sweatpants for my husband for Christmas last year and he loved them so much I bought him two more pairs in different colors. They are heavy, comfy, and so soft and warm. He’s always cold and we live in Ohio so our winters can be frigid. He says these are the best sweats he’s ever owned and the price was exceptional! BUT, suddenly the price increased $7 per pair and while they’re still worth it, I’m disappointed at the price increase and haven’t purchased anymore since. They wash up great. No pilling, stretching, and they look new a year later (and he lives in them) so the quality is worth the price but they’re not the deal they used to be. I paid $8.99 per pair and last I checked they were $16 per pair. That’s a drastic increase. Amazon sweats really are the best though and I highly recommend them. Have loose ankles, not baggy but not tight, and deep pockets. They look very nice, not sloppy. Can wear out, at home, or as pajamas. Recommend.

Best jeans I’ve found for husband!!
My husband is a farmer and wears jeans every day for work and for church… We have tried numerous pairs and they don’t always fit just right, Or they are too beggy and boxy in the legs. My husband also lost weight and needed a 35 waiste, which is not always easy to find. Bingo… These fit perfectly in every single way and they are trim enough That he doesn’t look like his pants are clown pants… But they are.Also not overly fitted, Just very comfortable. They washed up nicely. These are going to be his new go -to jeans!!

Not bad but…
I’m 6 2″ – 36″ waist – fit was good. Color was not as dark as in the picture. The stretch in the jeans may be a bit much and they sit high on the waist ( i guess that was the eighties). overall, they are comfortable and fashionable but you’ll notice the difference between amazon jeans and a levi.

Great fit for gym-rat waist and quads, but tight in the calf area
These jeans fit like the proverbial glove in the waist / glute / thigh area, but I have genetically huge calf muscles (even without working them in the gym,) and the cut of these jeans is fairly tight from the knee downward. They’ll stretch with use of course, so I can still wear them, but if I were going to do a Rev B on these I’d take into account the fact that people who are gym rats will also work their calves. Which means a bit more circumferential span is needed there.They don’t need much of a tweak – else you’d end up with lower legs are relaxed-fit-baggy – but maybe another inch in total circumference at the calf. When I bend down for something and stand back up, these ride up my calves and stick there, I’ve suddenly got the Pee-Wee Herman high-water style and have to pull them back down.Not a big deal though. Again they *will* stretch, they are still an excellent fit, they’re inexpensive, they’re available in a solid, dark indigo dye – call me strange but I’m not enthused at the idea of buying jeans that look like they’ve been pre-worn for six months by a garage mechanic with a serious incontinence problem. If there’s some kind of perceived stylishness in jeans that are visibly worn, buying them pre-stressed is as lame as buying a guitar with the paint pre-worn. Like “Oh, dig ME, I’ve used these so intensely that the paint is worn off. Except… umm, not really.” No. Just… no. Best of all these are available in 28″ length on 32″ waist, which eliminates a big peeve of mine vis-à-vis jeans:Manufacturers sell pants based on waist vs. inseam measurements, and while the waist measurement is a definite thing, the inseam is not. Tailors typically measure your inseam from the point of direct contact with your groin down to your foot. So think about it, or better yet just stand up right now and check this out: When you’re standing, whatever pants you’re wearing do *not* magically stay snugged right up to your Naughty Bits. Rather, the actual cross-seam where the inseam starts will generally hang at least an inch or two *below* the actual, physical surface of your body from which the inseam gets measured.Which means – sur-vey SEZ? – your pants are too long, and you’re going to be walking around on top of that last inch of cuff, cursing the fact with every step. Unless you go to the expense and hassle of having them altered after the fact. So… a selection of inseam dimensions that actually matches people’s true pant-leg length! Amazing!I’m writing this before having done a wash and with only a day’s wear, so I can’t comment on how durable the dye is. But at least it’s at an intense, deep blue as a starting point – and assuming the dye is of decent quality that’s the best you can ask for.

***EDIT***I must apologize; I bought these jeans at the same time I bought the slim fit jeans by Amazon. I got confused as to which pair was which, the negative review I left for the athletic fit jeans was intended for the slim fit variant. Updated review for the athletic fit is below.These are a fantastic pair of jeans! From quality of material, to fit, to appearance I like them from top to bottom.The material is constructed of a beautifully stretchy material that moves with my body just how I need it to. I have gone through weight swings in the last year and these jeans have kept up just fine. They are breathable, as far as jeans go, very comfortable and they sit well on my waist. I am a big fan of stretchy jean material and Amazon has really hit their stride with this jean.Comfort aside, I think the jeans look great too. When I wear them, I feel like I look good in them, what more do you want? The colours are nice and solid, they have been through numerous washes and show no signs of fading, tearing, separating. They will have a significant bleed of blue when you first get them, even after the initial wash on receipt I found that my hands were consistently blue when wearing them that first time. After a second wash, the bleed was completely gone. If you wear white shoes, be aware that these will leave a blue stain on them if you do not double wash.I work in a chemical environment, and I don’t hesitate to wear these jeans at work. Like any other denim, certain chemicals will make short work of the material, but these jeans have held up as well as any other pair that I own. At such a good price, I don’t feel guilty about wearing them in a harsh environment and potentially ruining them, at least I’ll look good doing it!Value for the money is definitely there, the quality:cost of these jeans is a great balance.I am a fan of these jeans and there are already several more pairs in my dresser!

The quality is similar to the quality of the most famous brand but for less than a third of the price of that famous brand.Usually I take a W34 L30. But this L30 was an inch too long, so I had to shorten it by 3 centimeters.
