            Full cuts are challenging for me to pull off due to slim legs. However, with a hem or cuff I think those will look good on you MCL.

              The cuff I tried: it's too soft and full to work. It'll be a hem.

              Think it, be it.

                Critiquing fit is one thing. Jumping to one's own conclusions while overlooking certain facts (i.e. not hemmed) is another.

                Those pants fit me similarly McLain. (But maybe a touch larger in the waist and not quite as long.) With that really nice back buckle, these pants can be worn slim or relaxed and will still fit well up top. You cannot cuff them, as you already figured out. But with a hem they will look nice.

                One thing I would debate is whether the FW Longshoreman Overalls are a wide legged vintage 19th century pant. It can be worn that way. As an example, here are a pair of denim longshoremans worn relaxed.

                FW makes a lot of pants with 19th century anti-fit. However, the Longshoremans are a straight leg. Although they can be worn relaxed and still fit well up top due to the buckle, my preferred fit on them is as follows.

                I actually went back and picked up the w32 navy cord longshoremans and they fit me about like that. They are a bit snug in the waist but I like that. Since the cord is already a very relaxed, casual, loungy material, I think that a slim, straight fit goes a long ways toward counteracting that. Worn as above, these are a rather dressy pant.

                  Those look terrific!

                  I wouldn't trade these, and I appreciate the "package deal" with the Ranch Hand. I have no worries they will look better hemmed, and would still wear them even if they didn't because they feel better than any pants I've ever worn. That is a ver sumptuous, luxurious corduroy…

                  Think it, be it.

                    I think a better photo would give us a better idea of the fit but only after hemming. And maybe a shirt and jacket that complements the pants more? The peacoat is fitted but the relaxed pants look a bit out of kilter with the coat.

                      Unfortunately I don't have much early century clothing, pea coat is as good as I can do with those pants.

                      I don't know what other than a work shirt would complement the pants better and I rarely wear that with denim bottoms, so no regrets there either.

                      Think it, be it.

                          Pics of my 32s. Still need to get them hemmed a hair. But without shoes, I have a nice clean line.

                                Those look fantastic. Are they as ridiculously soft as those brown ones? Seriously that's some special corduroy. Large wale and soft and pliant. The cord pocket lining in my Real McCoy's pea coat is close, but the large wale and pliancy of the Freewheelers really is unique in my experience. And looking at the reverse of the fabric, it almost has a herringbone appearance.

                                I love all the details, union labels, labels bragging about various features of the pant, and even a chambray lining to the thigh tool pocket. These are details you have to look for… It's almost like "who's that for?"  I love the buckle back and the patch pockets as well...

                                Such great pants, I am definitely impressed if that's not already clear 🙂

                                Think it, be it.

                                  Reuniting as we speak! (also wearing the FW deck jacket for some more blue!)

                                  Yeah it is the same cord. And yeah it is pretty special. It's the counterpart to the finer heavy cord on the IH cord jeans.

                                  Unfortunately the heaviness makes it not so easy to sew perfectly. Hence the B stock. But, whatever, the cosmetic perfections on mine are all on the interior, and you wouldn't even notice if I turned em inside out. A steal at less than $100.

                                      Cool thing about the navy is the blue stitching. And check out that buckle action.
