The pockets and belt loops are about perfect. The material is stretchy but a little stiff, and the knees are not gusseted like some others. when I have to climb a ladder or get into the back of the truck, they want to fall down even with a belt. I have tried many other brands. I have to have Navy blue for work and my favorite pants from Milwaukee don't come in blue. The thrive pants have the best pocket and loop configuration I've found, but, I like the Truewerk material and knees a little better. Overall good. These will be in rotation at least until Milwaukee makes blue.
