Functional Multi-Pockets Convertible Cargo Pants

Cool Style, Questionable Quality

I have a two shorts and two pants from these guys now. The overall look of them are excellent. The material seems decent and I haven't had any issues with seams as of yet. I'm very happy on that front. I have noticed however that some of the things that are attached to the piece of clothing can be questionable. Zippers sometimes feel fine, other times feel a little cheep and make me unsure if I'm going to break or rip them out when I manipulate them. Some straps on pockets for display purposes have frayed after a few washes. Then there are the "draw strings", these multi-pocket cargo pants have a few. The elastic strings that restrict the bottom opening of the legs around your shoes have a rubber piece wrapped around them you can pull to tighten them before locking them. That rubber piece ripped off as soon as it felt tension. These pants also have a elastic draw string on the back of the legs that pull the pants up at the heel so it doesn't slip under your shoe while walking and get torn up from the pavement. Those things are such an amazing idea and are perfect for baggy pants, however the elastic string you pull are way too thin. One of them ripped out so easily the second time I tried to adjust it. Things like this that are meant to stay under load and need to be robust. The strings on these pants are not, and is a huge shame. Having the back of the pants around my heel drawn up was nice while it lasted. There are some really nice things about these products but there are still things where corners seem to have been cut to save on costs. Things like the accessories added to these clothes that have a functional purpose should not be cheeped out on. They need to be able to put up with wear and tear and not just last for a short period of time.
