Officials Choice Beltless Pants

Does anyone own a pair of these? They are on sale for $30 right now, which is $20 cheaper than the 3 pairs of Sansabelts that I currently use. At that price, I'd love to pick up a couple of pairs if the quality is there.

You can't really tell much from the pic but...:

I don't own a pair but I worked last year who wore them. To me, they looked like good pants. The only think I noticed was the pant legs were fairly big.

I have them. They run a little tighter in the waist than the Sansabelts, but otherwise they are good pants.

Hey, grail, I've seen your girth, no wonder you think they're tight

All kidding aside, do they have the same wide waist and elasticity as Sansabelt?

I felt like they were of like quality. To be honest I didn't pay attention to the differences, other than the fact that my extra girth didn't fit into them as well as the Sansabelts of the same size.

Interesting. For $30, I think I'll pick up a pair and just get a size bigger than my Sansabelts...

Try the Haggar Expandomatics at JCPenney. Right now, you can get them as low as $36.99 each when you buy two pair on line on Penney's website.

And no, I don't work for Penney's or even own stock in their company. Actually, with the economy the way it is, I'm putting all my investment money into Dollar Stores.

That is what I was trying to say in the other thread.

I own 2 pair of OC pants. First pair I love, second pair I hate. Bought a year apart. They must have changed their manufacturer because the fit and everything wasn't even close.

Is it better to get pleated sansabelt pants rather than non pleated?

Completely your choice. However, the "in style" slacks to wear are pleated.

I wear the pleated athletic cut slacks from Honig's (B51AP - Honig's Whistle Stop Online Store - Products).

They are more than fairly big, they are huge. I've got an unhemmed pair of 34's I'll send to anyone as long as they donate $10 to their local animal shelter.

I have one pair of these pants. I really do not like them compared to Sansabelt pants and Honigs style. And they did feel kind of bigger than the other brands as well. I personally did not like the look or feel of those pants.
