How does the M5 "Straight" fit compare to traditional, baggy work pants?
The M5 is an athletic, slimmer cut that sits closer to your body through the seat and thighs than typical wide-leg utility pants. It offers a cleaner, professional silhouette that doesn't feel baggy, while still providing enough straight-leg room to comfortably fit over work boots.
Will the stretch fabric stretch out or sag after wearing them all day?
No. The DuraStretch technology is designed specifically to recover its shape. It provides dynamic movement when you are kneeling, squatting, or climbing, but the fabric has enough structural memory to keep the pants from bagging out or losing their fitted shape by the end of your shift.
