Thanks

Who else besides who?

Noel Howard, Wested, and Magnoli are the 3 main ones. I think LL Bean does some with pocket flaps, too.

In Christ,

l.l. bean year round wool trousers definitely have the button-through back flap pockets.

They look ver nice....if Wested et the rise correct for me, then I'd reorder, but if not I'd certainly consider these.

The Orvis pants are seriously nice. Plenty of $ though. Maybe some day...

Did anyone ever find out if the Orvis pants had front pleats?

LL Bean also has cotton with flaps if you are looking for something less expensive.

Though not indy-accurate, the orvis pants look great; indy-esque, but perfectly in style even today. The cavalry twill wool pants were always a classic, but somehow faded as of late, due to... I guess the popularity of chinos and polos in the workplace.

Officer's Pinks
Flat-front
Cavalry Twill Wool from Scotland!
Scalloped rear pockets

But what's the rise?

I just emailed them, I'll post the response.

*Hmph, should have asked them for the leg opening measurement as well.

Q: I was wondering what was the rise (length from top of waistband to crotch seam) of these [officer's pinks] pants, on a size 32?

A:
Front Rise 9 3/4
Back Rise 16 3/4

=======

Sweet. If these measurements are correct, these are almost low-rise pants. Which is perfect for those who wear pants on their hips (like indy!)

I don't understand the separation "front" and "back"
I thought there was only one rise
