You could if you didn't buy the cheap ones. The poly-wool will stand out as more durable and professional, even on the bases.

More durable, maybe. Visually you can't tell the difference until they begin to wear out.

Fecheimer Pants
Fecheimer pants are popular around here (not sure if I spelled it correctly). They sell for around $50.
Should last several years if you buy 2 and alternate daily throughout the season.

Maybe you got stuck with a pair of knockoffs!

Then you obviously have not worn a pair of Honig's poly-wool.

All of my plate pants are Honigs poly-wool. Are the base pants much different?

Honig's is having their sale right now, too.

I just noticed I got the new catalog for Spring. Looks like they came out with a new shirt color.

I'd ask Tee if he's going to get it, but I know he already has it!

They are obviously different in appearance from any department store polyester pants.

Of course they are. I'm just not seeing it.

If you can't see the difference between honing poly-wool and department store polyester in body, in how they hang and keep a sharp crease and their shape, and the difference in color from department store polyester, then, well...that might explain that God-awful shirt from Canada you wear:
