Default Uniform pants

Where are you guys getting them?

I’ve always used the vendor pants but have never been satisfied with the fit. I’m tall and the crotch on these things still comes half way down my thigh. They are also pretty baggy. Hard to alter these things. I’m not overweight or over-slim. Just looking for something with a fit disigned for someone that’s not 50lbs overweight. Also not “skinny” pants. More like modern dad fit. Haha

The uniform fabric (wool/poly blend) seems ok as long as it’s dry cleaned and I’d like to stay with that or a higher wool ratio. I found pants at perry Ellis that had a decent fit and color match but were 100% poly which doesn’t breathe like wool and is shinny crap.

I was hoping the new uniform vendor would have new pants but they are the same Edwards pants we had before. I ordered the same size as my last set from the old vendor that still fits and the new ones were much tighter (waist). Same crappy cut.

Anyone found good pants?
Quality fabric
Modern but comfortable cut
Matches color.

I wear A Cut Above tapered (not slim) shirts and donate the vanhusen parachutes

Crew Outfitters in ATL; primarily a Delta vendor but they unofficially have our bars and color combo. Probably not convenient if you’re not in the area though. Quality stuff, holds a crease and tailoring by a guy that knows what he’s doing is included in all their uniform pieces.

Funny you say that. I have a pair of pants from Crew outfitters and they are the ones I like the most. Love the lined thighs. I bought them online though so they aren’t tailored and a bit “too comfortable”. I didn’t know they had a retail store and you could get pants tailored when you buy them. We overnight there a lot and I have family in the area we visit so it’s not out of the question to get them there. Where are they located and can they ship them to you after they do the tailoring?

Google them in Hapeville, GA; they recently moved but the address is the new one. Off of (near) Virginia Ave. Can’t say if they’ll ship but I’d bet they will; top-notch customer service so it wouldn’t surprise me.

Do they include tailoring with purchase?

I personally just order from crew outfitters and get them hemmed when I get them in the mail. Always works out well

Not sure about exact color match with the new uniform jacket (if you wear leather it won't be an issue) but I have always had good luck with the "navy" pants from A Cut Above. Don't always have to dry clean and very comfortable. Little more $$$ than others, but so are the shirts.
