I love Honig's but quite honestly, I don't like their slacks. The pockets are made of a very thick material that causes the slacks to bulge at the pockets and they aren't comfortable. They also don't hold a crease very well.

I like the Sansabelt brand slacks the best. You can get those at http://www.dddofficialswear.com/ among other places.

I love the shoes. They are great and you do not have to shine them. If you liked the feel of the All-Stars before, these are just better because you do not have to shine them.

The Sansabelt pants are the only way to go. The last long. You do not have to wash them every other day. They can sit up and keep their crease very well. The are very durable. The best pants around.

Peace

I'm with Rut on both of these items. Good quality and good fit.

I just purchased a pair of the patent leather style shoes. Got lots of compliments on them from both co-officials and remarkably cheerleaders and managers.

The new design is much more cushioned than the old, and the only problem now is to keep them looking shiny! (different post)

They are HOT. They don't breathe at all. I don't wear mine much maninly because most others don't have them and I found theat it just brought attention to me.

Pledge actually works pretty well to keep them shiny and spot free and to get out some of the scuffs.
I got some Pledge wipes that do the trick.
