Champion Men's Open Bottom Light Weight Jersey pants

Never tried these on so I don't really know about the fit. What I do know is that the pants material may be 100% cotton in the black color (my order) but the exposed inside elastic waistband might as well be barbed wire lubricated with poison ivy. I should have paid attention to certain previous reviewers. Returning for refund. Exchange? No way. A few more cents invested by Champion to line the inside waistband with cotton would result in more sales, happier customers, a much better product and much better reviews, not to mention profits. Does anyone at Champion read this stuff?

I buy jersey pants to wear under my hockey equipment. Generally a pair lasts between 1.5-2 years. I'd had the old Champion model with the covered waistband in the past, and found it to be acceptable for my purpose. Therefore, I did not hesitate to buy the same brand again. Only after I placed my order did I read the reviews about the design change and a rough, scratchy exposed elastic waistband that was driving people crazy. My skin tends to be sensitive anyway, so needless to say I was worried that this would be a problem for me. I move an awful lot while wearing these, which would give the elastic band plenty of opportunity to rub my waist raw.For me, the waistband issue has been a total non-issue. I've worn them multiple times now, and have had none of the issues others have complained of. The elastic material feels soft to the touch and I cannot tell the difference between these and my previous pair with a covered waistband. Fitment is good and build quality also seems very good for the money. I won't hesitate to buy these again assuming I get the expected mileage out of them.

Was this made in China? or what? I'm very disappointed at the quality of these pants when I gave them to my hubby he loved them we didn't wash them but they were too long so I told him lets wash and see if they shrink.. and this was the end result... I have the newer kind of washer and dryers & it has no agitators> so I have no clue other than the sewing Job was horrible on these ones I have yet to wash the grey pair. Not sure if I want to wash the other pair or just return them cause of how cheaply made they are....... Hoping maybe if I do wash the grey pair they wont do this? maybe it was/is a fluke? maybe the sewing operator on this one just screwed up the sewing job? not sure.. anyway really dissatisfied. UPDATE FRom DAy of Purchase> I will not buy this brand ever again they are the cheapest made piece of junk they tear when you wash and tumble dry the string part is what separates whom every made these really did a POOR JOB< Returned all products at least they honored it as far as the company giving a refund they did the job well but as far as the Pants They Truly Stink and I would never recommend to anyone. we bouight 4 pair everyone tore on 1 wash 1 wash!

This has been my favorite and most comfortable pant for many years, for lounging around the house and very casual occasions. Unfortunately, Champion has redesigned the pant in 2014, which makes them now uncomfortable for me. As of my purchase in April 2014, Champion now includes a large, 2" elastic waist band on the pants. In previous designs, the waistband has always been covered with cotton that rests against the skin. In the new design, the skin is now directly on the elastic band, with no cotton covering it, which feels like plastic around the waist, cuts in into the skin and is uncomfortable. Don't the designers actually bother to wear these or test them before they mass produce them?Hopefully Champion will correct this uncomfortable flaw in the next redesign of this classic pant.Based on the reviews of others, many have found and agree that the waistband on these 2014 style Champion sweatpants suck (Same waist band on the shorts, see the reviews.). I have subsequently tried a few other brands and found these Russell brand sweats to be the closest in design to the Champion pants and they have a comfortable waist band.http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008HTJP8Y/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A2WPUTMMJCDTQ7

Bought these for my husband who stands 6’4” tall and slender and normally wears a 32x34, so I purchased an XL. The waistband has a drawstring which my husband doesn’t even need to use but if he did, there’s plenty of room. The material is lightweight enough but still warm enough if there’s a chill in the air. He hasn’t had a complaint about any discomfort with the material or the waistband or the wide leg; the wide leg is one of the perks to the style which is why I chose this pair. This is definitely one I would order again and in a different color so that he would have a variety for lounging in the spring/fall and possibly even some summer days when the AC may be a little chilly.Overall would definitely recommend and order more!

I ordered the same pants I bought last year. The fabric wore poorly, but the pants were comfortable and looked well. The pants I received seemed to be made of a non-cotton fabric and instead of the fabric being wrapped around the elastic, the elastic is exposed on the skin side of the waist band. NOT okay. On the other hand, when I told Amazon I wanted to return them, they told me to keep them and refunded my money so I was not out time, gas or return shipping.

I gave the old style (with covered waist band) more stars than this version. The old style Large fit me in a "relaxed fit" - a little extra room, but not much. This version Large is a bit snug after washing. As long as it doesn't shrink any more, it will be O.K. I'm debating ordering XL just to see the fit difference. This one is snugger in the crotch and butt area.I'm debating the 2" uncovered waistband. I can put up with it, it's not as comfortable as the old covered waistband, but it DOES STAY UP! These pants aren't sliding down at all, where as the old style tended to slide (I often wondered if I needed suspenders with it!).For the price, these pants are a deal. The cotton knit is about like cheap t-shirt material and thickness - fine for summer. How well they will hold up and last remains to be seen. But as I said, for this price, throw them out and buy some more.

I’ve been buying these for several years as comfy “around the house” pants. They’ve been great, but when I ordered another pair a few months ago they arrived damaged (drawstring was literally half ripped out of the waistband).I sent them back and got a replacement, which appeared to be fine, though I noticed the waistband elastic was white instead of the usual grey or black.During the first day of wearing them, half of the stitching holding the elastic waistband came out. After day three it has all come out.I will be avoiding these from now on, and I recommend you do the same.

Waistband threads disintegrated after a few days on all pairs. They are comfortable on the inside, no fleece, just cotton, but threads do not last.

The Good Parts* Lightweight material - it's the same material as T-shirt material* Comfortable* Fit perfectly after washing and shrinking* Has pocketsNot So Great* The thinner material makes them look like pajama pants - I'll probably wear these at home mainly* Legs are a little baggy for my tastes, but as lounge pants, doesn't affect comfortGotchas* These pants WILL shrink in the dryer - before I washed them, I thought I'd have to hem them at least an inch (Size info: I bought an M -- I'm roughly 32w/30l in pant sizing, 5'7" height) , but after washing, they're a perfect length. There's still plenty of room to grow with respect to waistband stretching.

Was not sure what size to get do to the seller and other reviews being so vague. The inseam is 33 inches on extra large.Why seller is unable or unwilling to provide such details is crazy.Had to cut tag in the rear of pants out. Very hard and was constantly stick me by my tailbone. So cut it out before going to the gym unless u want people to think you have bugs.Otherwise, a good product. Already washed twice with no other issues

Nice quality sweat pants, nothing special. They run really big. I usually can fit an XL but these in L were too big. They are also pretty long in the legs too, so order accordingly. Mine were returned and I received a refund with no complications.

Me agradó el diseño, recto sin resorte abajo, buena calidad, tela delgada y cómodo. Es un poco largo, lo pedí en talla M y mido 1.73 pero así me gustan, fue una buena compra, seguro pido más adelante otro

They fit well and length is perfect. Not sure why people are complaining about "cheap" fabric... They are clearly listed as jersey knit which is Tshirt material! Nice and light and they make good workout pants.

Nice fit, great value for money, fabric is nice and soft and washes up well - I dry them in the dryer and immediately hang on pant hangers so any creases drop right out. Will certainly buy them again.

Presi per mio marito che non sopporta la ture strette sulla caviglia. Io gli do tre perché tutti quelli che gliela vedono addosso gli dicono che è un pantalone un po' antico ma lui gli da 5. Non so perché i tempi di consegna cambiano a seconda della taglia e quindi ci ha messo un po' tanto ad arrivare. Non sono felpati dentro e il cotone è comunque di ottima qualità. Vestono ovviamente largo

draw string not stitched in very well one pair it started to tear out as soon as I try to tighten the other ripped out in the laundry machine. Wouldn't buy this brand again.

I bought before the gray one (L) size and it fits perfectly but the black one is like XL. The material is good and can last for a year, and if you get the right size it fits perfectly.

These are very comfy, lightweight, loose fitting.The pocket part of the left pocket is not fully sewn on so there is a little hole there, I can live with this as these are for lazing around the house during this virus crisis. I don't expect these to last a long time, they are not particularly robust. I expect a couple of months and then order them again, or spend a bit more to get something better made.

These are comparable to the track pants at that popular retail chain for two to three times the price. I only wish they came in more colours. It seems the only comparable pants on the Amazon site that come in more colours have the most ghastly colour selections.

Crap, second pair I've had that ripped the string right out, must be made in China or Mexico, because the other champion stuff I have is made great, these pants last two washes, then the string is ripped right out because of the bad sticking, not once but for two,pairs this has happened, if I bought them at a store like sports check they would replace them, but here I guess u only have so much time. Any ways stay away save your money

Very nice and comfortable, can be adjusted somewhat as will stay where they are placed. I often find large numbers of pants are too long for me (I'm not unruly tall for a man, 5'10), however I can pull these up and then pull the top back down, the pants stay and fit well. Look fashionable as well.
