Amazon Essentials Men's Athletic-Fit Stretch Jeans

Great fit and very comfortable.Denim is soft and durable and allows for full motion.Great value for the money.

Had to go up a waist size so needed new jeans.purchased one pair to see the fit and feel, was duly impressed, so I ordered 4 more in varying colors, all fit exactly the same.The waist has some elasticity to it, so they fit some in between sizes, whether larger or smaller.I got 38x30 and they fit exactly as I wanted without being tight or loose feeling.The denim is what I consider medium weight, not overly stiff but not thin like some budget brands.All 5 pairs are comfortable (after a rinse and light wash) and I will happily wear them.I feel they'll hold up well given the medium weight (had another brand of thin ones that gave up way too quickly).

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 that 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 ankle. 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 usually gets measured.Which means - sur-vey SEZ? - the pants you buy with your tailor-measured inseam will be 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! The only thing Amazon - and the whole of the garment industry - could do better is offer men's jeans with those tailor-assumption-inseam options extending all the way down to 26" or 27". We're not all bean-poles out here. I would argue that the vast majority of men, at least in N. America, are shorter than the garment industry weirdly assumes.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.[Update 07-27-24: All of the above applies - still a good pair of jeans - but I'm not happy with how the dye is fading. There's a serious fade on both the front and back of the thighs but nowhere else, so the result is that cheesy two-tone thing that screams "Dig these bargain jeans I got from K-Mart!" I probably won't be buying more of these until (unless) I start seeing raves about how this problem - and the calf-size problem - have been corrected in a Rev. B.]

So incredibly happy with these jeans. They fit well and they stretch when bending over or kneeling. Super for everyday wear. No superfluous details, just a classic jean. I am so satisfied that I have purchased in several colors.

As an athletic older man with thighs that don't fit most pants unless they are athletic cut, Lululemons, or risk having a waist size several inches too large, these Amazon essentials provide me just the right fit like my Lulu's with their stretchy material. Just enough Lycra for stretch to go along with cool, comfortable, and rugged cotton. No gusset but I'm not planning any athletic activities. For the price, quality and fit, this is a tremendous value. Plus the wide variety of lengths including 28" means no tailoring needed. Thank you Amazon!

Some of the better pants I have purchased lately, and the price is awesome. They fit true to size and seem like they are of great quality. Will be buying more for sure!

I loved the first pair of these pants I had. They were 29X30 and fit perfectly and wore well.I am female but I wear these for their fit and wonderful GREAT POCKETS!!! Also Great price. Overall very happy with them. They do wear out however and I needed a slightly larger size so I ordered the same color, same jean in a size 30 X 30. These are the green (olive) color.To my horror the waist on the 30 x 30 was smaller than my current 29s! I measured them just to be sure. I returned them and ordered the 31 x 30. But nope! These are the same size as my current 29s which are a little too snug right now. I'm keeping them although the color and fabric is a bit different because the price was so low. I'll be able to wear them later.Am not going to play this game anymore however by ordering the 32s they will probably be huge or even smaller than the 29s. Not to mention availability of the size / color you want is hit or miss.Not sure if this brand simply can't do sizing correctly or if the pants were mislabeled. I want a pant that is the actually size it says it is and not this nonsense. Wish they'd also keep the material as standard.Now looking for another brand.

These have become my go to jeans in the past couple years. Overall they look good, are comfortable, the price is quite reasonable and they actually have my size. I also prefer that they are medium weight rather than heavy weight since they are mostly for casual wear. On the downside, the sizing can vary a good bit, especially between colors i.e. the same size in different colors may vary up to an inch or more in the waist. If one color doesn't fit just try another color or even a different pair of the same. Also the zippers are quite small in length, not sure why they use such small ones. However, all in all, as I noted, I do like these jeans.
