Another cheap "close-enough" pant.
My quest for a budget gears continues.................
Went shopping again this weekend and found this pant at a local "mall"
It is made by Dockers - Recode style. 100 percent polyester. Color is almost like Mocha. Good thing..............only cost me $4.99.
All I have to do is redo the hem to 3".

Thanks Dan.maboot38 wrote:Just make sure they don't have a cuff at the bottom when you hem them, but I'm sure you already knew that. Also, the hem should be around 4 inches or so, but that is hardly noticeable. My Westeds are hemmed to 2.5 inches.
Yeah...I redo the cuff and only manage to get a 3" hem for my inseam. I think that is good enough.

indyfan1234, Man Hat Tan modified that shirt himself. You can see it in his thread here:

Isn't that a great job? He is amazing with a needle and thread.

Sorry guys for not getting back on the thread sooner.
I got that pant at a "local mall" (a used/secondhand store but not one of those nationwide thrift store).
I think this is an older style that was issued by Dockers a few years back.
Info on the pant.....
Dockers Recode.
100% Micromatique polyester (soft textured Microfiber material)
I found a few Skull1Skull2Skull3
HTH.
