I'm looking into new pants for work. Spend 50% of my time in the office, other 50% at job sites (residential home mods). The time on the job site is often spent bending/kneeling/lifting etc. to get measurements for estimates or lending a helping hand to my crews. Jeans have always been more comfortable than the typical Dockers for this type of work, but I'd like something slightly more professional than my Levi's 512s.

So to my question: Anyone have experience with Rothco pants? Are they junk? ...because they are definitely better priced than 5.11 or Proper. Just looking for input in general for those that wear tactical/duty pants every day. Good idea, or should I be looking at Dickies/Carhart/Deluth Trading?
