Anyone else have the same experience or been able to get the pants altered successfully? It seems like the alteration would be complex if I had to go that route. Thanks in advance.

Just one question. Why do you want the flat panel western cut style pants when just about everybody has gone to pleated pants within the last ten years?

The original pants I ordered were not western cut style, they were normal, flat-front with vertical pockets on the side. I actually don't like the western style with the pockets sitting on the front. And pleated pants are horrible IMO. They can look OK on certain body types, but overall, men's style has moved away from pleated pants and for the better.
