If you are willing to spend even a few minutes browsing in a store or on the web, BR and especially the Gap (the worst of the three) are not good values at all.


You're saying ON is a good value? I had one henley from ON that shrunk horribly and had holes at the wrists after like three wears and a wash. Not worth it even if it costs less than $10. And ON is way more vanity sized for the fat dads that shop there.

I have two pair of vintage slims from the gap and like them quite a bit. Don't have any Tailored but you can be sure they fit much better and will last longer than...these http://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/produc...scid=814858002

I got a black one that I'm currently wearing. IRL, blue's two shades and the green's a shade darker.

I just got my order from Dockers. I ordered 1 Wader in Tobacco (only one they had in my size) and 2 slim-fit soft khakis.

The Wader is seriously awesome. It feels like a worn-in pair of jeans already. Might be my new favorite.

What's up with the D1 soft khakis though? The only place they're "slim" is in the crotch area. They're huge in the thigh (seriously look baggy) and the leg opening is pretty much bootcut. They call this slim?

It's a shame the Waders are sold out in my size (30w) almost everywhere. Here's hoping they restock, because I'm going to buy a few pairs as soon as they do.

No need to get testy, broheim. It's three pairs of lightweight Japanese cotton-twill trousers made by a tailor in Manila, Philippines. Cost me $75 w/o shipping.

What does the hem measure on the Waders, and you went TTS?

Thanks

Buy 1 pair, second 45% off, + free shipping on dockers.com.

D1s (and waders) are on sale for $30. Two pairs with shipping ran me $51.

What really sucks about waders is the short inseam. I guess that's the whole schtick, hence "waders," but I can't roll with that much ankle, unless I'm walking on the beach.

I just received the waders in tobacco as well. Perfect deal for $22 shipped, I will try and grab more in the future because I can see myself wearing cropped pants all spring/summer.

Ah screw it, just ordered two pairs of waders.
Maybe I'll start liking my ankles more.

PS for all the people trying waders, I sized up 1 for mine because I found that they run on the small side

Just a heads up, the Dockers website now has Khaki Waders in Earth and Hazy Jade in the 30W size back in stock. (for those that were looking for that size, as it was sold out for weeks it seems)

I just ordered those 2 to add to my Tobacco. Use code "welcome3" to get free shipping with no minimum. They also have a 15% off $100 and free shipping deal going on.

These are gonna be my favorite pants this Spring.

Kop away.
