These are the greatest pants. My husband loved these and wore them all the time. If you haven’t ever experienced bamboo clothing I highly recommend it. Soft, lightweight, breathable fabric that is more eco-friendly than cotton. These pants are a size M with an elastic waist plus a functional drawstring. They have pockets in both sides. I’m not sure if the color is black or a dark charcoal gray. They dont look faded to me but aren’t quite completely black. I had a really hard time getting the pictures to really show the color accurately. The full length shots are the closest. These pants do show a little wear but are overall in great condition.
