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.

Try Them; I Think You'll Like Them

I own two pairs of OC pants and have found them to be compatible with Sansabelt and perhaps even a bit more comfortable. For $20, I would order a pair and try them out. Be aware that they have limited sizes and you will need to get them tailored for length and possibly fit.

I've been wearing OC shirts in both football and basketball for several years. I have one batch of 3 shirts (v-neck) I don't really like (material is a bit stiff). Other than that, they've been great. They don't really fade -- at least not that I can tell -- and they are still comfortable shirts. The zippers on the football shirts I have aren't the greatest, but the shirts themselves have held up for 4 full seasons of subvarsity wear and will likely see a 5th.

Don't dry anything except Sansabelt pants and dry them only for about 10 minutes. Everything else either hang dry (the OC shirts dry literally in minutes) or run them through the air dry cycle (no heat) in your dryer if you have one.

You wear them at the same time?

Since my 2nd year, I have worn nothing but Sansabelt pants. And I still have pants in tact for those 10 plus years. I have only had two pants ever fall apart and those were 10 years old easily (and I have gained a little weight).

Peace

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

I have owned the Honig's pants for the past 3 years and they still look new, but maybe it is because I air dry them. I also air dry the shirts and they also still look new.
I have purchased a pair of OC pants for the up coming season because I needed an extra pair and they were on sale. They do feel lighter than the Honig's but I suppose I will find out.
