Had to Modify to fit,
May 2, 2013
By: LakePlains
from Medina, NY
"Suspenders are robust and solid. However, they appear to be constructed backwards in that the adjustable straps are inverted. As a result some less that 6.3" cannot adjust them without punching holes and refitted attaching fastener.
Once I did that the suspenders are fine but will need several other holes to adjust to other trousers. Other than that the item is great!

No gold here,

"I loved the concept on paper but these miner pants failed to deliver the goods. The fabric is spot on and good quality so no complaints there. But the cut was wrong for my body - too baggy in the legs and tight around the waist. Normally I'm a 32 waist and same in the inseam, and often wear skinny sized cut as my legs are thin. Also, the suspenders are way too big. You'd have to be well over 6 foot tall or weigh at least 200 lbs, unless you cut your own holes in the straps as mentioned in the previous review. Just wished I tried this stuff on before buying online."

great pants, suspenders a bit large,
March 18, 2013
By: SamInHouston
from Houston, TX
"The miner's pants are very impressive. Quite well constructed, sturdy, and comfortable. I found the 32 waist 33 length to fit close but not tight on my frame at 6 ft 185 lbs. Look, feel, and fit are very high quality in my book. I particularly like the styling of the watch pocket, v notch in the rear of the waist band, and adjustable belt in the back. These are great pants!
However I found the leather suspenders to be significantly too large. The suspenders are adjustable over a range of lengths, but even when adjusted to their shortest setting they were far too loose, with a great deal of slack. A man would have to be quite robust to wear the suspenders within the range of adjustment they offer. A few minutes with an awl allowed me to create an additional adjustment hole for the stud so the suspenders now fit properly. This is not a major issue to me, but surprising for a garment which is otherwise very high quality and frankly not inexpensive.
If the suspender size adjustment had been within range I would have rated this combination 5 stars."

Fine but just not me!,

By: JimTheRed
from Colchester UK
"As usual from Orvis, superb quality but they simply didn't suit me. As I've got older my belly has got bigger than my backside and, unfortunately, the cut of these trousers accentuated this. Were I still as svelte as I once was they would have been fine!"
