These are very good quality jeans, especially for the price here on Amazon. The cut was better than I expected, which is to say I was expecting a more traditional/conservative look. Unfortunately, with the fading and whiskers, these are not really good if you want something more conservative, say for work. There are much better looking cuts out there if you go the faded/worn-look route, which leaves these in the middle: not really conservative but not really that great of a cut either.
Also, these are listed as having a boot cut. They are really a straight leg that fits boots. I bought a 30x34, and here are some of the measurements:
Inseam: 34" (true to size)
Seat and thighs: moderately relaxed (not loose cut)
Knee: 9"
Calf: 9"
Opening: 9-1/4" (more just because the hemming is thicker, so it's really more of a straight cut that will fit boots)
Front Rise: 10-1/2", sort of a low-mid rise
Rear Rise: 14" Carhartt Men's Series 1889 Relaxed Fit Jean,Dark Retro,44W x 30L
My husband is tall and thin, and it can be very hard to find a comfortable jean that doesn't look 3 sizes too big. For years now he has turned to Carhartt's for the best fitting, longest lasting work pants on the market. Their jeans continue the legacy. The dark wash is sharp enough to wear out to dinner and durable enough to survive the construction site. I bought 3 pairs this purchase and when they wear out, I will be back to buy more!
Honestly I wondered what Carhartt was doing in the denim store to begin with. They do not make bad jeans, but usually not very stylish jeans. However these jeans look good. The light retro has a faded pattern along the front thighs. Pretty subtle but that combined with a good fit, especially in the behind and they are my wife's favorite jeans for me to wear. I also like that, to me the denim is the right amount of material. A little less material per square foot, but that is good for Texas hot weather. And still VERY sturdy.
