A Cut Above pants used to be fantastic. Now they are just good. They now fit larger than before, the fabric is not as stretchy and the interior finishing seems cheaper (smaller waistband grip area, thinner waistband fabric etc.).

Have you tried a pair in the second half of this year? I ordered some and they’re noticeably better, an entirely different waistband style and they’re much better quality overall. I was surprised enough at the ones I thought I’d just “try” again, I immediately ordered 2 more.

Not poo but loss of quality for sure. Fabric not as good and I got one missing a pocket button. Poor QC.

Probably not. The ones in got were from the first big shipment after they had none for a long time.

I switched to their Brooks this Spring and really like them. They are soft like a Tshirt. I hang up damp and the wrinkles come out when it dries.

Not sure what the complaining is about with ACA. I’ve worn Tropos for probably a decade or so and my most recent order from 2022 is better than any I’ve had in the past.

I use the cirrus and it is vastly different from the shirts 6 years ago

I am pretty sure the gentleman on the left was the Radio Operator. The one on the right might be the steward. His cap was different than the rest of the tech crew.
