So, Jerzees has been my go to brand for sweatpants and sweatshirts for decades. The fit has always been true to the size. The reason I've preferred this brand up till now is fit, price, comfort, durability, and price. Well, the price is still good, but everything else has gone south. This review is dated 2023 for a pair of sweatpants that I had in my drawer since 2021 when I had purchased them. They are my preferred size, XL, but they do not fit. They are brand new, never washed, so guess what. One dryer cycle is going to make them unwearable because they are much too tight in the waist, the rise is very short and uncomfortable as they pull down on my back side, like you see with plumbers. There is no room whatever to allow for body movement during exercise. They are like a little strait jacket on my waist and legs, and I will get one wearing before I will have to toss them in the trash. Jerzees, you've gone too far in cutting corners and now I will change to a brand that is true to size. Very dissatisfied with this purchase. Made in Honduras, I don't know if that matters, yet the QC on these sweatpants, once a top brand, has become non-existent to unacceptable to me as a purchaser. What's up with the downhill trend in clothing quality nowadays ? Using skinny people for models, or trying to cut corners ? Hard to say, but this is my last pair of Jerzees anymore.
