Review on Boys' Clothing - Brooklyn Athletics Stretch Trousers in XXL Size - Pants by Chris Long

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Ordered 9 days apart same olive color - received a slightly different color with a different tag

I ordered a pair of XXL in olive about 2 weeks ago. They arrived, wore them for a week and I liked them so much I ordered a second pair 9 days after ordering the first one. The second pair arrived (also XXL in olive) and I immediately noticed that it was lighter, almost greyish green. I washed a new pair thinking that might be the reason but they stayed greyish green in colour. In other differences, the new pair appears to be less "stretched" at the waist and has a slightly different label design. As others have noted, they shrink a bit with washing, but that wasn't a huge issue for me as the size still fits me quite well after washing. In the first photo, the old couple is at the top and the new couple is at the bottom. You can clearly see that the old pair is greener while the new pair is grayer. In the 2nd photo, the old pair is below and the new pair is above. You can see that the design of the tag has changed: the old pair has the model number and date (01/2021) but the new pair doesn't. You can also see the difference in the waist band between the two. Both pairs were washed again and both were XXL in olive, ordered only 9 days apart. Shame as the 1st pair is more of an olive color and the waistband feels much better than the 2nd pair. I will not order a third pair.
