Van Heusen Men's Flex Flat Front Straight Fit Pant

Comment

Need to be selective in which color you buy. The fit of certain colors is smaller than the size selected. Recently purchased the Black, Slate & Slate Blue pants. The Black fit as expected while the Slate was much tighter in waist and in butt through legs. I noticed the material of the black pants seems to be much more light, soft & flexible while the slate pants had much more heavier, stiffness to the material. Im hoping the slate blue fits like the black pants, fingers crossed! My take away so far is I will definitely buy the black again and if they carry a navy blue I would try those out. Seems the basic colors are made truer to fit than the more fancy named colors. I hope this helps people in deciding on this pant. This paragraph is an update to my comments above. The Slate Blue pants fit well as did the Black pants. Very unhappy with Slate pants! It may be a hit or miss thing (Quality of Manufacturing). Probably not made in America.

Firstly, pants are fairly expensive at their regular price now a days. This goes for really any level of quality. If you go in mid-range department store, expect a ~70$ tag. Sounds like a high price, however the pants arent necessarily made to the best standards even at that. In comes the Van Heusen. Van Heusen is on the low-to-middle range as quality stands. The regular price of these pants are lower than average (to reflect the latter) however I feel is still a bit too high for what you receive -- which is a poly blend (65% polyester and 35% rayon). They are kind of scratchy feeling, not very soft, and not very breathable. With this being said, they are good looking and wearable for many body types. [---Fit---] They fit slightly large around the waist, so if possible, size down only 1 around the waist. If you have bigger legs, then order your normal size. The fit of these are classic and are average around the thighs. They are slimmer than a typical regular fit so I would say a slim classic. However, there is a problem with the crotch length. Honestly, I dont know the reason for the trend of short crotches, however these ride high and can only be worn when they are sitting around your hips (not under your belly button). Even sitting on my hips, they are still a bit tight for the personals. Take this into account. These are labeled as stretch, however they dont stretch much. They do, just dont expect the same stretch as say, your ubiquitous stretch jeans. [---Look---] More business casual than dressy. It is a mix of dark blue and dark-light blue (sort of a dark seersucker) and is matte finished. Great with black shoes or dark brown. ----------------------- A decent pair of mid-range quality business casual pants that fits those with a few extra pounds down to the slender folks. A bit expensive at regular price for what you get, however a comfortable pair of pants when gotten on sale.

Im an airline pilot, other pants would leave my family jewels feeling robbed after an 8 hour day of flying. Id also have to do pre-flight checks, get under the wings and look at the tires and bend down, lift things etc. These pants are my dream come true. Make my job easier.

Purchased for my boyfriend. He’s in between pant sizes (weight has been fluctuating) and thought to order the smaller just because this was a flex fit. Mistake! Had to return and size up. So I’m guessing this is true to size; I would not recommend sizing down. My boyfriend also said he felt no flex in the waist band. The quality of the fabric feels soft and looks like a very nice black (doesn’t seem like it will fade easily after a wash). My boyfriend has athletic, thick legs, and although the fabric does have a little give, he sound it snug in the thighs and calves. Don’t think it’s a straight leg trouser and May have been something I missed in the description. Overall very happy With the product after receiving the correct size.

These are great quality dress pants. Do you know the feeling when nice attire makes you feel both comfortable and confident? This is exactly the case with these Van Heusen Flex straight fit flat front pants. I wore them to work today and kept catching myself thinking about how pleasant the fabric is to the touch and how well the pants fit me. I find the ash navy color to be subtly attractive. I noticed however, that the Amazon picture of the color and fabric pattern does not represent the product very accurately. The pant fabric is very soft but resists wrinkles well, although I had to iron them first since they got a little bit wrinkled in shipping. Inside the waistband, you will find what Van Heusen calls a "shirt gripper". I absolutely appreciate this feature, since nothing can ruin your sharp look more than an untucked shirt, especially if you dont notice it. The seams looks well sewn solid and straight. The fly front zipper is smooth and stays zipped. The waistband boasts both a hook and a button. The 38" waist size is slightly loose on me. Waist size 36 fits perfectly and I dont notice these pants being tight due to a slight stretch of the fabric. Overall, I really like this particular "model" and I will most likely be buying another pair in a different color.
