Noone said "lol where's the slim fit".

I was merely pointing out that those were the same pants that were on the front page. Whether you like them or not is irrelevant.

And you're not paying the 185 for the slim fit, that's for the pleats

Bad info. Looks like they're not offering it in F/W. They had a slate-like color in their "straight fit" in their S/S line.

+ 1 but at a third the price, I have way more Milanos in my wardrobe!

snuffdaddy: do you like them? i'm hesitant because they're dockers but they are really cheap... as for those dickies, definitely not.

I'm similarly sized and have had good luck with Jcrew's broken-in and regular fit sized down. I'm curious to try the dockers wader linked a few pages back, but as far as the BR posted earlier-- Those are huge man...there are options out there, just keep hunting.

i returned them, the material was too thick for hot ass south florida..and i like a slightly longer inseam than 30"

dockers gives u hassle free returns so if youre interested theres not too much of a risk, also urban outfitters sells them too and they are easy to order/return from as well

i usually hem to about 30" either, and i know dockers has newer khakis now but last year i tried some of the ones that were supposed to be "newer/contemporary-whatever" and they were really unflattering on ****** and did not taper whatsoever, they actually sort of looked like wide legged or something, but i saw something about those in gq just now and the urban outfitter thingy, yeah, so maybe. oh yeah, and +1 on save khaki, i freaking love them... i just need more versatility in my khaki wardrobe. have any of you seen the new tommy hilfiger ads? they have some really nice ones on one of the models but i don't think they've released them online to purchase yet... either that or they just styled them to look nice.

I was excited until I saw the Slim Dockers had a 9 inch leg opening
