Clever, comfortable, cool jeans. Good repacement for cargo pants.
I love these jeans. I don't really use them for anything tactical, but the side pockets meant for magazines were great for keeping my wallet. My wallet feels better on my side than in my front or back pocket. There is also a pocket for a flashlight, pocket knife, or small wallet. I like that they don't look very tactical. There is a little flex to the pants, but not a lot which again, feels good. I typically end up wearing a belt, in part to that and the size was a little bit large. The jeans are a nice thickness as well. I wouldn't use them for hard work, but I accept the trade off they made for making sure they aren't too hot in summer. The pockets are lined with a mesh. They seem like they will hold up for a long time. My only gripe is they are pricey, but not outrageous. They are also not boot cut if that matters. Cowboy boots are too big, they will fit, but might look funny. Work/tactical boots are okay, but might show a little as well, but not as bad. I'd recommend these jeans and plan on getting a second pair.

Best Jeans Ever
I've owned 2 pairs of these jeans and they are the best. They fit perfect, are very comfortable, have extra pockets. My last pair lasted 2 years with very heavy use before they got holes above the back pockets.

Ive tried others that were missing something
Ive tried lapg jeans, those for some reason rip apart in the crotch after a short time, they're extremely comfortable but not durable. Ive tried 5.11, and they're a bit more durable, but not as comfortable and the pockets shape causes shifting depending on what ya put in them. Ive tried 221b tactical jeans and they have pockets and room for everything including the kitchen sink and are extremely stretchy to the point you dont even feel like your wearing jeans, they seem to hold up ok, but I dont care for skinny jeans. The vertx relaxed fit feels like jeans, they are comfortable, they have enough room for what you need and are carrying and they seem to be pretty durable. Only reason I didnt give them 5 stars is because ive only had them for 2 weeks and have not fully tested durability, but time will tell. I think these are going to be the best out of all of them though.

Defiance Jeans = Delta 2.1
Over the years I have removed all jeans from my life after wearing the Delta 2.1 as they are by far the most comfortable pair of pants I have found and have pockets in all the right places. Figured I would give the Defiance jeans a run and boy am I glad I did. They are a tighter fit in the mid/lower legs but I am slender (6’3” at only 180lbs, purchased 34x36) so it’s perfect. If you have a stockier build these might be like jeggings (Jean leggings) for you. I bought 3 pairs and once trying them on I am certain I will be back soon to stock up on a couple more pairs to have on reserve to protect from inflation or discontinuation in the future. Thank you for always impressing me with everything of yours I have tried Vertx, I’m a fan for life!

Skinny legs lol
Great denim blue jeans, tough but comfy. They breath very well so the "boys" don't get hot. The only issue is the legs, these are skinny jeans in the legs or I have huge calves which could be the case. All in all I love them

Buyer beware...
Heed the warnings of those giving negative reviews due to quality and durability. I tend to take many bad reviews with a grain of salt. I did so in the case of these jeans, figuring quality issues may have been rare instances or a bad batch, and because I really wanted to like them. I do like them. They are very comfortable. The fit is good, even if a little short. But the quality issues are real... I've owned them less than a month now and haven't machine washed them at all. With fairly moderate use the rear pocket rivets developed tears above them which are now becoming holes, as some reviewers have already mentioned or provided photos of. The hip pocket seem has just about blown out where I park my folding knife, and I'm not clumsy when deploying or storing it there. I'm surprised at how quickly it deteriorated. If it means anything to the reader, I still wear them, dispite them falling apart. They're comfortable and convenient enough that I don't want to retire them yet. I admit that's partly because its a tough thing to do less than a month from purchase. But they are good wearing pants. Just not hard-wearing pants. For the money I hadn't expected any miracles here, but less than a month of wear before coming apart really is unacceptable. So, buyer beware. Hope that helps...

Worth the buy.
Love them. Very comfy. All the secret pockets are fun. Need to buy smaller size as I lost weight and went down 4 sizes lol. Price makes them worth the buy.
