Default Uniform Pants

For what it's worth, Mens Warehouse has a perfect color and fabric matching pant in 100% wool. While the company issued ones are ok, these are far nicer quality and far more comfortable.

$129 each (buy one get one free right now) with $12 hem and $10 supercrease.

Thanks for the tip, I might be looking for a higher quality as these start to wear out. I think the word "Blue" here is amusing. They are as blue as the Navy's Dress Blues. Just call them black.

It wasn't my find, just passing the info on from another forum. I am off today to pick up some, really want no pleats but it appears if I have to have pleats that these at least look nice. My uniform was such a disappointment, the coat fits great except they must think I have scarecrow arms as I had to have it completely redone to allow for some room in the armpit/ shoulder area. The pants look like cheap Chinese assembly (because they are). Yuck

Here's what I just found out. The 100% wool I referenced above are NOT a color and fabric match to the crappy ones from M and H. These are the the exact color and fabric match:

$79.99 buy one get one.

I had the cuff removed for $12 and am having them take them in for a much better fit. They only come in pleated unfortunately but after having them redone, they will be darn nice and very comfortable.

Not for everyone as they aren't cheap compared to the company freebies but if you care how you look and want to be comfortable for hours on end, these are an option.

It's a permanent crease Men's Wearhouse puts in upon request using a very thin line of tailor's glue down the crease on the inside of the pant leg. Helps keep the legs looking pressed and sharp between washings.

Are these alternatives to the new uniform pants (Dec edition) or the current ones?

New ones. It's a tough color to match
