TAD Pants - anyone have them??

Happy Holidays:

Does anyone have the TAD Force-10 duty Cargo utilities? They look pretty nice, but I am curious if they are worth almost $60.00 per pair. Web address is below.

Regards,
Doug

I had been thinking the same thing! I also wonder what happened to the pther pants they had been promising for awhile, I believe they were called Utility Pants, or tactical pants?

I have a pair of Royal Robbins 5.11s.
$20.00 less.
WWW.NEWYORKCLOTHIERS.COM is where I got them.
Great pants.

Yeah I got the Royal Robboins too. Great pants.

Those Royal Robbins pants have an "action waist". What is that? I like the looks of them, but I'm not fond of elastic waistbands.

I am wearing mine right now.

I also like my Carhartt B11's.

Both have oodles of pockets.

Kinda like a hybrid. Partial elastic. Partial "regular". They work great, especially after a big meal.

Thanks for the info, EXECUTION. I might give them a try still.

I say give them a shot. I believe you'll like them. I love mine.
WWW.511TACTICAL.COM might have some better information for you.
I had heard nothing but good things about them before I purchased them. I was not disappointed. They have plenty of pockets. They are comfortable. They are well constructed. They come in different colors too.

For Carhartts, you could go to WWW.CARHARTT.COM for information.
I bought mine in town, but WWW.DUNGAREES.NET had good pricing as well.
I have never done business w/ them though.

Brian

RR pants are great, no doubt. What about the TAD pants? Anyone have them?

I apologize. I hijacked your thread. Won't happen again. The TAD pants do look pretty nice.

Royal Robins are the cat's a$$. I have two pair and another two on the way from Brad at Lightfighter.com. $36 a pair. They are all I wear off duty. Will get the shorts for summer. The waistband keeps you from getting plumbers crack.
