After purchasing the Tac Jean on the first drop in April 2024, I can say I’m impressed with the durability, wear in and feel.

On the first try on, the jeans fit true to size and had some flex. I’m a 34x32 and after a year of wearing them every day to every other day with washing and air drying they have maintained the same fit.

The belt loops are in a different place from your standard Jean and if you appendix carry this is nice as you don’t have to battle the clip placement of your belt loops, IWB strong side feels okay but would recommend sizing up due to how the pant hugs your body.

After the first 4 washes one of the back pocket rivets came off in the wash, with another falling off after 3 months or so. I’ve seen other reviews of the pant and this seems to have happened before with the first batch from April 2024. Nevertheless, the pockets have stayed intact because of the heavy stitching even with the 1 rivet gone from either side.

The pant color has also worn in very well with the fades happening in all the places used as expected and turned into a medium wash kind of look from the dark indigo after 1 year.

With emphasis on EDC and work use this is a great pant for both and even when you prefer jeans over field pants on the range. I hope it’s restocked again in the future to compare a new one to the one I have.

I normally wear a 34/34 in origin boot cut jeans. But for these to fit I had to go with a 32/32. The bottom of the Jean needs to be widened to allow for wearing with boots as well. They aren’t tapered but are closer to a strait leg style. If these were boot cut these would be the perfect work/casual hybrid jean on the market.

Either way they are still a good looking jeans. Just be cautious as you may need to order a size down… or just send in for an exchange which origin makes that process easy.
