I've heard on here before that the pants don't fit quite like the other brands and the material is thin. I like their basketball shirts but their baseball shirts have been documented on the baseball forum as being pretty cheap and there are also design flaws.

Spend the money and get Sansabelts. They'll last longer and fit better.

I have always liked the shirts. The pants on the other hand...google 'pantaloons' & you'll get the idea. I have purchased both belted & beltless. See 'pantaloons' above.

I bought some shirts a few years ago, they work fine. Good quality. I would never buy pants other than Sansabelt (first choice) or Cliff Keen.

Peace

I really like their shirts, but I did notice that they shrunk quite a bit over the course of this last season. I put them in the dryer most of the time. I'll probably buy 2-3 more shirts this year and I'll be air drying them instead.

I have some Dalco pants that I got my first season and they're not bad, but the Sansabelts I got this past season are much better. Does anyone have Honigs pants? How are they?

Honig's are the only pants I've used. I've had mine for 4 or 5 season (4 pairs rotated). They've been a good pant; however, I'm switching to Sansabelt next season. I've noticed that they've started to fade so I'm going to switch.

Have cycled 3 pairs over the past 8 years. They still look sharp and fit well.

OC was the first to sell the long sleeve powder blue umpire's shirts, and I bought two, and they are of very good quality.
