Customer Reviews

I originally bought a pair of these Russell pants at my college bookstore many years back -- they are a lightweight, jersey knit material. Some reviewers felt they were way too lightweight, because they were expecting them to be sweat pants. THESE ARE NOT SWEAT PANTS! They are literally pants made out of T-SHIRT MATERIAL. If you want thick, fleecy material, look elsewhere.

I find them to be SO much more comfy than sweat pants. They are loose and a bit baggy. They have a drawstring that you'll probably never use because the elastic waist (which is perfect - and narrow enough so it doesn't "roll") keeps them in place. They are not long in length, but I actually find them to be perfect, because I don't hitch the waist up to MY waist -- I always wear them pulled somewhat low (beneath my belly button). But then if I need to take my dog outside and the ground is wet, I'll hitch them up higher so the pant legs don't get wet. :-) The waist also can be rolled/folded over well (which I know is fashionable especially with teen girls these days).

I am 5'8", and about 180 pounds. I wear the XL, but I also once bought the L when XL was sold out, and it wasn't much smaller, as I recall. I wear them frequently (at least twice a week), and they usually wear out in about 2 years. Do they last as long as sweatpants? No. But they are SO much more comfortable, it's worth it! I also think they're more flattering, because they are loose and have a lovely drape to the fabric -- almost like 'harem' pants.

A note about colors -- I own both the graphite and the black. The black (which is 100% cotton), shrunk a bit in length after washing and drying, and now they're a bit on the short side for me. The graphite (poly/cotton blend) has NEVER shrunk -- I HIGHLY recommend the graphite color because of this. They wear better and wash better. They do not fade in color. Normally I would think 100% cotton would be better, but trust me -- with these pants, get the poly/cotton blend. They still feel like 100% cotton anyway, and they wash/wear better.

I absolutely LOVE these pants, and I was so psyched to find them here on Amazon! You won't be disappointed with the graphite color's poly/cotton blend -- it pretty much goes with everything, and washes/wears beautifully.
