My Keen combos are a couple of years older than the Fechheimer's. The Fechheimer's (from ASA "official gear") are a different model from other Fechheimer's I've seen. Mine are the western cut pockets, non-pleated kind. It seems to me the older Keen combos are more sturdily made with heavier fabric than the Fechheimer's.

However, I also have a new pair of Keen base pants, and the fabric is lighter weight than on my Keen combos.

I do like the double hook fasteners at the waist that the Keens have - just seems more substantial.
