Dish & DU/ER Rethink Casual and Performance Clothing with new No-Sweat Pant

Yeah, I’d consider these for $88 if I could pass them off at work (I work in a fairly laid-back law firm), but $150 is nearly Brooks Brothers territory.

Pro Tip: If you want to annoy joggers, call them just that.

Those remarking on price don’t understand the value quality garments bring beyond the coll factor. Fair enough, they’ve been exposed to traditional clothung models where more is spent on advertising than Quality.

I stopped buying from traditional stores after seeing jeans last only a few years at best. I know buy from places like Betabrand and Outlier who have a made in the usa dirext to consimer model. Yes. Easy to spend $100 on pants from them. But they last anf built well. With jeans from even low rnd retail stores costing $50$-60 and sometimes barely last a year. Well, it’s not so expensive now.

The trick will be is if these pants look like notmal clothes or have that syntehtic sheen to the
That gives them away.

Sevo – whut?

I have two pairs from their last Kickstarter and commute with them, usually when the weather’s nice – they’re great.

Will they last longer than a standard pair of cotton jeans? In my experience, likely not – they’re likely similar. In the wet, with road grime and no fenders my saddle’s like sandpaper and after a few trips you can tell they’re wearing. As a result, in the wet I stick with bibs and an ass saver.

Their redeeming quality as far as I’m concerned, is the comfort. These things feel great! I get far more mobility out of these than standard jeans (throwing a leg over the saddle for instance – it sounds nitpicky, but it really is a welcome difference). Admittedly my ass/thighs/quads seem larger than some standard jeans would accommodate comfortably given my waist size and inseam length, so the seat gusset here is also a welcome addition, increasing comfort. The fabric itself is also nice – I’ve found most jeans require a bit of breaking in, not as much the case here.

As far as I’m concerned the difference in price is worth it for the comfort, but I can understand that comfort is a subjective thing and in this case also dependent on body type so these won’t appeal to everyone.

Considering my positive experience with the last couple pairs I jumped on the $88 train for this last campaign. I think they might be overselling the notion of ‘dress pants’ and ‘running pants’, but insofar as a great, comfortable pair of jeans that are good for riding is concerned, I like them.

Are the front pockets shallow or deep? If they’re not deep enough, I lose things when I sit down or my phone can’t go deep enough and let my leg comfortably pedal or sit.

Any size charts available? Would like to see the differences between the slim and relaxed fit, specifically with the leg opening. Liking the idea so far, may have to get a pair!

To me these look pretty good. I have two pair of Levis Commuters (bought one on sale and won the other pair) but they feel very synthetic and are very warm to me and I don’t wear them often because of that. Personally, I can blow out a normal pair of Levis inside of six months. My ‘jeans’ of choice are Carhartt Double Fronts which can last me more than a decade. However, those suck for riding your bike to work or anywhere else. These look like an interesting option.

As I’ve gotten older, I’ve realised I’d rather spend the money on quality once then buy crap again and again. I might have to jump in on this and see what happens. My hope is that they have some that fit people with legs and butts like a track cyclist than a hipster.

Intrigued, so clicked the link. They are now $98 USD. At that price I’m out. There is paying for quality, and there is over the line.

Although $100 for a really good pair of jeans is still a better idea than some of the people I know that pay over $200 for what I call “pre-ruined” jeans!
