Super great feel to the material, better than the wander joggers, the former paramount convertible pants, etc. Top notch. The pockets on both sides are not quite deep enough. Not having a zipper, and a tighter waist starting point than normal makes going to the bathroom more of an adventure. Add to that, that the inseam is not offered with a longer option, would add up to keeping me from ordering multiple pairs. So, overall versus other pants TNF offers, probably not worth the extra cost...but you can definitely feel the difference.
