Mixed review.,
May 16, 2013
By: Eroc
from Hinsdale, IL
"I've purchased 5 pairs of these pants. Three pairs are fine, two pair have failed.
The two failures have zippers that catches material and does not go down past half way no matter what. I would like to get these replaced.
So I guess I must buy new ones to replace the two bad ones.
I like the pants other than this problem."

Good But Expensive,
April 2, 2013
By: Gangesboy
from Northamptonshire
"I bought these Chinos in desparation having been unable to get a decent & comfortable fit elsewhere.
And I'm pleased I did as they fit perfectly.
However I can't see why they cost so much more than other brands as the quality of the material and finish is nothing special. In fact Iwas surprised to find some loose threads and untidy stitching, allbeit a small amount."

Waist band Problem,
February 1, 2013
By: Agola
from Ireland
"These fitted perfectly but the waist band on the right side was not fastened. Now, I don't know if this was supposed to be the case and it was up to me to fix it. I probably should have returned them or at least contacted Orvis to see if this was the case, but my wife intervened as you knew too well that I would never get round to returning them. It would be interesting to know if anyone else experienced this, so be warned!"

"I bought these very comfortable pants for my husband. He loves the light weight fabric, the expandable waist, and perfect length because of the custom hemming. We are all set for our Spring break in warm, relaxing Florida."

Anything but comfortable,
May 21, 2012
By: STLBlues
from St. Louis, MO
"I knew the time would come when I would have to post a negative review of an Orvis item.
These Poplin Comfort-Waist Pants are best avoided. The first 2 pair I received did not fit like any other Orvis pants I own. The waist was tight by almost two inches. Even with the comfort featured expanded to the maximum, these pants were anything but comfortable. The space between crouch and belt is extremely short, commonly called “low rise”. I won’t detail the comfort problems “low rise” creates. but trust me it is best avoided at a 3+ hour college graduation.
If these pants fit better they would be a wonderful addition to any summer wardrobe. The poplin material is quite cool and almost impervious to wrinkles.
The Orvis customer service folks shipped a larger size the same day I called, but even these pants did not fit quite right."

"While I think this product has a high degree of quality, the color and especially the sizing (well within the upper layers of each size) caused me to return the products."

A boon to the portly,
January 18, 2012
By: Philtheflyfisher
"I love these trousers and have bought about a dozen pairs over the past three or four years. They are so comfortable for my portly shape that they are now my preferred attire.
My one criticism is that the elastic tends to age rather quickly, probably because the regular washing subjects it to 40 degrees. However, give they are light in colour, what a boon that they are machine washable. I will continue to buy these."

Much improved,
January 2, 2012
By: ndmick
"I love these pants which can be worn as casual or dress slacks. The elastic on the waist broke on the first pair I purchased. Because they are so expensive (more than they should be), I called customer service before buying a second pair and they indicated that they had fixed the problem with the waist elastic. I recently received the pants and the elastic had been noticeably improved and I was impressed that Orvis would respond so well to customer concerns."

Mens Pants and Shorts,
June 17, 2011
By: Ringer
from Natchez, Mississippi
"I have recently received an order of several pairs of your Poplin and Chino shorts and pants with the comfort waist. These items are of the finest quality and in keeping with the Orvis Tradition of Excellence. However, I would like to see these pants/shorts offered in more colors such as Navy, Red, Green, etc. I would buy your entire stock in my size!!!"

Watch the slide,
June 15, 2011
By: Flipperbob
from Durango CO
"The comfort waist on these pants has fairly light weight elastic so they REALLY expand. A tight belt is in order. Also they do come out of the dryer with fine wrinkles which do not show under most circumstances. The fabric is medium weight and kind of strarchy. The polyester zipper may not be everyone's choice."

poor customer service,

By: RmcL
from california
"I SPECIFICALLY told your ordering person at time of the order that I do not want to order the pants UNLESS you can supply them with a 30" inseam.. i got the 34" If you could not supply it with a 30" inseam ..tell me and I will not order it.. I had to have them shortened at a tailor for $8.00.
the answer to my question to your sales order taker was "no problem" o at rdering time.
Incidentally the tag on the pants highlited "30"?"
