The GD polyester pants are darker than the Honig's poly wools. Pretty easy see at the plate meeting, but only us geeks will know once you're on the field.
I've been putting a few pair of my poly wools in the "hand wash" cycle of my washing machine, in cold water, and hanging them to dry. Then I hit them with an iron. Not as sharp as the ones I rotate to the dry cleaners, but pretty close. I use the dry cleaned ones for "big" games".
The GD charcoal pants have their place, and are fine. They don't match other folks brand of charcoal, but are starting to be ubiquitous in some areas. Plus, they're very stout, and have that neat, elastic waisband.
