I've been a very satisfied DXL customer that's bought the Gold Series brand of pants for almost 20 years. However, a few years ago, DXL started implementing the Perfect Fit styling in these pants. Perfect Fit is terrible because it means there's little room in the crotch, they're tight in the thighs, and even the waist is too narrow and tight (other reviewers about the Gold Series of pants are making these same complaints but DXL is not listening). This Perfect Fit styling makes no sense since DXL's products are supposed to be geared towards big and tall men. By the way, DXL's website is misleading because it doesn't state that these use the Perfect Fit styling. Furthermore, the color of one of the pairs I bought was supposed to be "navy" but it actually was a light blue color; one of the pairs I bought was supposed to be "black" but it actually was a gray color; one of the pairs was supposed to be "dark taupe" but was actually a khaki color…what is going on?! The fabric has also been made thinner (everything about these pants is being made of a cheaper quality). So, since I couldn't try them on before buying at the store, these will be thrown away. A total waste! Run, don't walk, away from these pants! I'm never buying any Gold Series pants again. And, DXL does not stock other brands of dress pants in any of my local stores so I'm going to avoid DXL entirely and instead buy pants from JC Penney and Kohl's from now on. And, to add insult to injury, when I posted my negative review on their website, DXL refused to publish my review.
