the navy looks really dark. i actually thought they were black. maybe its my iphone but they sure look dark.  and G, thanks for the pic. you look fantastic! must be the Dita Statesman thats making magic.

Comfy from the getgo. Feel as if they're indesctructible. Great placement of sidepockets.

Shitty pics - it's dark out…

Good fit on you Eli.  Did you get them hemmed yet?

[Seul]

Yep. 33. Double rolled cuff.

[Seul]

What would be a much, much better idea than a standard button on the back?.. Right: a snap button… And a beautiful one at that... I'm working in these tomorrow and I just know I'm gonna be in love with their practicality by the end of the day...

The fabric of the pockets is sick as well... As I said: whole thing feels indestructible.

[Finn666]

how would you compare these to the 666D (if they're even comparable!)?…

[Seul]

Same fabric, different cut + different position of side pockets and different back pockets. The 816s were comfortable from the getgo, whereas the Demons needed some stretching…

[thomasnunnally]

AH great pics Eli.  Mine will hopefully show up tomorrow!

[Finn666]

thanks lad. now how would you compare the fit/cut in the top block and thigh area?…

[mvb]

I hope these will stay extant

@Finn666:

thanks lad. now how would you compare the fit/cut in the top block and thigh area?…

816: as the cut is roomier, thighs nor waist have to stretch at all… But definitely not a loose or "baggy" fit... Slightly slimmer silhouette than the 801s... Bit of taper... I dunno guys, but if ya want a pair of ducks to work in, this is the one you're looking for...

[crankyfart]

beige and navy is love! tomorrow i'll be dating beige. navy have to wait.

[Seul]

Will need brown to get chopped for summer…

[moykky]

Brown ones coming my way… Excited to wear something other than jeans!

Edit: Do these stretch? I went with my usual "after shrinking" size with these...
