Top pair are 4 years old (so basically new...). This new fit cuts into your wait a bit (thus roomy through seat and thighs) while the second pair is 10 years old, beanpole straight. Both are 34/34 but do shrink down, as per other unwashed losing an inch at the waist and length at least. Trying, via the Internet Archive, and their wayback machine (try it) to check Carhartt's older sites to see when the change occurred, as can't find anyone else who nails it. Activate new saved search in ebay, "carhartt <2004". Bottom shot for color wear, from original duck brown; one year old hood for comparison. A lot of the tree surgeons prefer ArborWear since they are softer out of the box. Still too baggy for me though. Take home: bring back the "traditional fit" please.

I've been searching for a better fitting duck pant for some time. I wish Carhartt would offer the old fit again.
Red Ants Pants are workpants made for chicks, but on their website they have a page about dudes wearing them. Worth looking into.
