Review on Savane Men'S Big And Tall Flat Front Active Flex Stretch Denim by Chad Blanchet

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Nice pair of jeans by Savane! (I also buy Savane khakis)

I buy nothing but Savane slacks (always pleated) for work. Now that I'm retired I needed a more casual pair. I ordered these jeans and was very satisfied when I wore them. I wear a 56x30 and the work slacks have a 4-in. elastic band over the hip area to give that extra stretch. Unfortunately, those bands wear out after a year (my slacks are professionally cleaned by the best dry cleaner in town). However, I was surprised to see that these jeans have some sort of sewn in elastic all around the whole waist (see the orange band in photo). The fabric itself is light and has some stretch, so the jeans are very comfortable to wear! The inside pocket material seems a little frail and I wonder how long before a I poke a hole in it, but I'll deal with that when the time comes. The pant label says 81% cotton/coton, 17% poly and 2% spandex.

Pros
  • Feel great
Cons
  • The stretch material tends to lose its stretchiness after a few washes
