The verdict
The most consistently comfortable pair in the lineup. The fabric hand is genuinely better than anything at a mall price point, and the no-ride waistband holds up. You pay for it — and the elastic is the first thing to go.
What works
- Best-in-class fabric feel
- Waistband genuinely does not roll
- Wide style range across cuts
What doesn't
- Premium price per pair
- Elastic softens before the fabric does
