Louis Raphael LUXE Men's 100% Wool Pleated Dress Pant with Hidden Extension Waist Band,Navy,38x34

These were my favorite work pants, and I’ve bought many, many pairs over the past few years. I even wrote a positive review on Amazon for them. I haven’t bought any over the past year, though, as I had enough on-hand for work. However, recently one of them suffered some damage and I needed a replacement pair, so I ordered one.Now that they’ve arrived, I have to say that I’m very disappointed in these pants. While they still look nice and the quality appears unchanged, they have two problems. First, they are much tighter in the waist now. These have an expandable waistband, a feature that I love, but with this pair, I’m at the upper end of where these pants fit me. The older ones fit fine, this pair does not. No, my old ones are not “stretched out”, and I haven’t gained any weight, in fact I’m about 10 pounds thinner than the last time I’ve bought these.Second, I’m long-waisted. Another thing I loved about these pants is that they were comfortably cut in the midsection and would sit fairly high up. These are now tight in the crotch and ride very low … several inches lower than my older pairs, in fact. Even when I hike them up as high as I can, they still ride an inch or two too low and I am also giving myself a wedgie to even get them that high. This may not be a problem for all men, but it's a big problem for me. This seems to be a current trend, wearing pants lower, but it doesn’t suit my body type.These pants might work for you, particularly if you like your pants to ride low, but they no longer work for me. These are fairly expensive pants, so if they’re now cutting them lower and tighter in an attempt to save on a little fabric, then shame on them. But goodbye Louis Raphael LUX pants, it’s over; we don't fit together anymore. Two stars.

I ordered these to replace some that had ripped horizontally across the seat for no apparent reason. The "cut" was entirely different....so much so that I had to send them back. I have three other pair in the same exact size and brand that I ordered 6 months ago that fit perfectly.

As noted, somewhat lighter weight, which works well with southwest climate. Compared to my other dress pants with the exact same measurements, it is tight around the waist and mid-section. Although I will dry clean, if it shrinks then I will need to lose 10 pounds.

Fit is good, and quality is great. These slacks look as good as any of my more expensive dress slacks, and they give me a little room to breath in the waste. You can wear them with a sport coat, or business casual with a polo shirt/button-up shirt. They look great, feel good, and seem to be wearing exceptionally well.

These are very stylish and comfortable trousers. Nothing compares with wool for garments and especially trousers. The material is not thick like a gaberdine and so is ideal, year-round for Sydney conditions but might not be a winter garment in less felicitous climes. Very happy with this purchase.

These are the best quality working mans slacks around for this price. We have ordered these for years through Amazon.I ordered 2 of each colors.

my husband love these pants they fit him very well he is hard too please when it come to his clothes,but when he tried these pants on he was very satisfied and love the fit.

A bit too long, which may relate to the expansion feature, but nice pants, good price..
