They’re wonderful! They fit very well, fair priced, and look great

38×32 for 215 lb old man. All others have fat legs. Makes you look fatter. These are slim fit legs and look, feel great. Amazing flex waist. And can’t beat the price. These will be the only brand of jeans I’ll ever buy!

Great fit, great price, great product

These jeans fit like the proverbial glove in the waist / glute / thigh area, but I have genetically huge calf muscles (even without working them in the gym,) and the cut of these jeans is fairly tight from the knee downward. They’ll stretch with use of course, so I can still wear them, but if I were going to do a Rev B on these I’d take into account the fact that people who are gym rats will also work their calves. Which means a bit more circumferential span is needed there.
They don’t need much of a tweak – else you’d end up with lower legs that are relaxed-fit-baggy – but maybe another inch in total circumference at the calf. When I bend down for something and stand back up these ride up my calves and stick there, I’ve suddenly got the Pee-Wee Herman high-water style and have to pull them back down.
Not a big deal though. Again they *will* stretch, they are still an excellent fit, they’re inexpensive, they’re available in a solid, dark indigo dye. Call me strange but I’m not enthused at the idea of buying jeans that look like they’ve been pre-worn for six months by a garage mechanic with a serious incontinence problem. If there’s some kind of perceived stylishness in jeans that are visibly worn, buying them pre-stressed is as lame as buying a guitar with the paint pre-worn. Like “Oh, dig ME, I’ve used these so intensely that the paint is worn off. Except… umm, not really.” No. Just… no. Best of all these are available in 28″ length on 32″ waist, which eliminates a big peeve of mine vis-à-vis jeans:
Manufacturers sell pants based on waist vs. inseam measurements, and while the waist measurement is a definite thing, the inseam is not. Tailors typically measure your inseam from the point of direct contact with your groin down to your ankle. So think about it, or better yet just stand up right now and check this out: When you’re standing, whatever pants you’re wearing do *not* magically stay snugged right up to your Naughty Bits. Rather, the actual cross-seam where the inseam starts will generally hang at least an inch or two *below* the actual, physical surface of your body from which the inseam usually gets measured.
Which means – sur-vey SEZ? – the pants you buy with your tailor-measured inseam will be too long, and you’re going to be walking around on top of that last inch of cuff, cursing the fact with every step. Unless you go to the expense and hassle of having them altered after the fact. So… a selection of inseam dimensions that actually matches people’s true pant-leg length! Amazing! The only thing Amazon – and the whole of the garment industry – could do better is offer men’s jeans with those tailor-assumption-inseam options extending all the way down to 26″ or 27″. We’re not all bean-poles out here. I would argue that the vast majority of men, at least in N. America, are shorter than the garment industry weirdly assumes.
I’m writing this before having done a wash and with only a day’s wear, so I can’t comment on how durable the dye is. But at least it’s at an intense, deep blue as a starting point – and assuming the dye is of decent quality that’s the best you can ask for.
[Update 07-27-24: All of the above applies – still a good pair of jeans – but I’m not happy with how the dye is fading. There’s a serious fade on both the front and back of the thighs but nowhere else, so the result is that cheesy two-tone thing that screams “Dig these bargain jeans I got from K-Mart!” I probably won’t be buying more of these until (unless) I start seeing raves about how this problem – and the calf-size problem – have been corrected in a Rev. B.]

I’ve bought some really expensive jeans, but before now I hadn’t been able to find a pair that weren’t uncomfortably tight in the groin and thigh region. There is extra length from the waist to the groin and the thigh fit is relaxed. I was surprised that my search ended with a 20 something dollar purchase from Amazon.

Unos pantalones con un corte muy cómodo y moderno, con una calidad que no le pide nada a otras marcas como levi’s

***EDIT***
I must apologize; I bought these jeans at the same time I bought the slim fit jeans by Amazon. I got confused as to which pair was which, the negative review I left for the athletic fit jeans was intended for the slim fit variant. Updated review for the athletic fit is below.
These are a fantastic pair of jeans! From quality of material, to fit, to appearance I like them from top to bottom.
The material is constructed of a beautifully stretchy material that moves with my body just how I need it to. I have gone through weight swings in the last year and these jeans have kept up just fine. They are breathable, as far as jeans go, very comfortable and they sit well on my waist. I am a big fan of stretchy jean material and Amazon has really hit their stride with this jean.
Comfort aside, I think the jeans look great too. When I wear them, I feel like I look good in them, what more do you want? The colours are nice and solid, they have been through numerous washes and show no signs of fading, tearing, separating. They will have a significant bleed of blue when you first get them, even after the initial wash on receipt I found that my hands were consistently blue when wearing them that first time. After a second wash, the bleed was completely gone. If you wear white shoes, be aware that these will leave a blue stain on them if you do not double wash.
I work in a chemical environment, and I don’t hesitate to wear these jeans at work. Like any other denim, certain chemicals will make short work of the material, but these jeans have held up as well as any other pair that I own. At such a good price, I don’t feel guilty about wearing them in a harsh environment and potentially ruining them, at least I’ll look good doing it!
Value for the money is definitely there, the quality:cost of these jeans is a great balance.
I am a fan of these jeans and there are already several more pairs in my dresser!

Material is soft and comfortable. Seems to be well put together and the sizing is accurate. I wear 34×30 and these fit nicely. However, there are a couple of things about these pants that bother me. 1) The elastic in the waist has very little stretch to it. Hardly noticeable actually. 2) Most importantly (for men anyways) the zipper fly is woefully short which results in an unnecessary difficult time doing you know what. I bought a pair of Wrangler Authentics at the same time (for about the same price) and the zipper fly is a full 1″ longer. I have included photo’s for you to compare. The material of Wrangler jeans is also a bit thicker, and the elastic waist has much more stretch to it. One other thing. The Wrangler’s have 3 belt loops on the back side, while the Amazon Basic’s have just 1. I decided to keep these for as I mentioned, they are very comfortable, but from now on, I’m sticking with Wrangler.

These jeans are great, perfect fit, good quality, and look. Comfortable a well made. The fabric feels thick enough and it stretches nicely. Price it fair, I just bought a second pair…
LumberghLSU –
You can’t beat these jeans for the money. Every bit as good as the $50-$60 Levi’s I have. They fit well, have some good stretch, seem really well made. I appreciate them leaving the annoying tags off the back as well. The inseam is an inch shorter than advertised, so beware of that. Otherwise these are my go-to jeans from now on.

Bought three pairs of the discontinued colors (black, indigo and medium wash). I’m impressed with the quality and materials, plus they fit great with nice flex for ease of movement. Definitely fit as well or better than several expensive rivals I’ve tried lately and the price can’t be beat.

I was really surprised how comfortable these jeans are. I really love them. The fit is great and you can’t beat the price.
I am the first one to admit that I am a cheap basstard. I would rather pay less money and deal with discomfort/issues with products. Not the case with these jeans. Totally 110% satisfied and will be buying again when the time is needed.

Tried this for the first time from Amazon Essentials, great Jeans pant, pure black and also very comfortable wearing it. It is also stretchable which is great.

These pants look and feel great! The fit was perfect also. I will buy more of these jeans in the coming year!

These are great pants. After the first pair came ripped and I had to send them back I got another pair and they were great.
They fit well and are perfect for everyday wear and look and feel comfortable for a night out.
K. Tombaugh –
Granted, the legs are baggier than I expected, crotch is lower than I expected, making me look shorter than I actually am. I look like a d*mn Munchkin from the Lollipop Guild! All I need is a tank of helium to suck on so I could dance & sing the Lollipop Guild song.
I probably should have gotten the 40×32 waist size instead of the 42×32, but I’ll still make it work. Being older, my metabolism has slowed down. Combined with my roommate’s delicious cooking that has put a little weight on me over the years, I’d rather have a little extra room than not enough. Better safe than sorry. This tall munchkin will grow into them.
They still fit well, they’re comfortable & I’m able to walk around in them just fine, so no complaints here. Definitely worth the price.

I bought a pair of these jeans, liked them really well, so I bought four more. Now three months later I’m really disappointed. One pair just split out for no reason after being worn maybe 10 times at most. ( see photos). I will update if the others do likewise.
Positives: good value, comfortable, fit well, look nice
Negative: durability

These are a good qualityjean but I had to return them because the thighs were not wide enough for my son. While they are an athletic fit with a wider leg, the leg is not as wide as some other athletic fit jeans

Nothing to not like! Excellent value for such quality, thank you again AMAZON
CTR Media Network –
These Amazon Basics men’s jeans fit my husband absolutely amazing! For those who have big and tall husbands, you know how difficult it can be to find clothing that fits well. I was pleasantly surprised that Amazon Basics offers a line that truly accommodates big and tall sizes.
I bought these jeans for my husband, and they look incredible on him. They don’t look cheap at all — they look premium, stylish, and very well made. He also said they’re extremely comfortable, which is a huge win.
I went back and bought more because you really can’t beat the price for the quality, comfort, and fit. Premium look + big and tall friendly + comfortable = a total win-win.

Excellent product, fit is perfect, diminsions are as advertised, well worth the money. CAUTION: BE SURE YOU REMOVE TAGS AND WASH JEANS BEFORE WEAR, they will initially bleed when wet, as in rain. Once washed no futher issue. On the fashion side, either trim the tags or be sure they are tucked in as they are extremely long and can showabove belt line.

I bought 2 pair of these. They fit great, are comfortable and look good. More of an every-day, casual type of jean. I would not use these for “work” pants.

This is the first review I have ever written after hundreds of Amazon purchases. Why write one now? Because these are perfect jeans for me. I can get them in 28” length. I don’t need to waste extra money to shorten them. Great amount of stretch. Waist band is stretchy without being heavy like Lee’s and others. The denim has a nice soft feel. Unusual for denim. Love the athletic fit that sits at the waist but tapers. To get jeans that are not wide at the leg opening in the past I have bought slim tapered jeans of various brands but they are ALL below the waist and constantly ride down, very frustrating! These stay put. I even wear them frequently without a belt! Super comfortable without being baggy. Before getting these, out of frustration, I bought a super pricey pair of jeans from Nordstroms for $150!!! Those are not as comfortable and now I feel like a total dope. Lesson learned. Ignore the bad reviews. Do not ever overpay! Buy these, look good, feel good and smile all the way to the bank. P.S. they wash up just fine with no noticeable shrinkage.

Nice pants, comfortable, fits perfectly.

I was really surprised when I received my jeans with the Amazon name on them and they were incredibly soft as if they were from the old school days of pre-washed jeans. Yes, I’m a Levi jeans guy, yes, I’m a wrangler jeans guy, yes, I’m a Lee jeans guy. I will honestly tell you these jeans are truly comfortable. They fit me perfectly and they are very comfortable. I would like to truly thank Amazon for their branding on these jeans and of course recommending me these jeans. I highly recommend them to anyone that loves jeans.
Mr. Rj Varnadore –
Pleasantly surprised that the fit, color and quality were nice. Definitely recommend for those that can appreciate quality garments for economic price.

What a good pair for the price. The fit is a little tight but they were good with a tshirt.

They fit and look great but the blue dye is a problem. I’ve washed the jeans twice and the dye is still coming out. I don’t know when the dye will come down to a normal level but I don’t want my furniture to turn blue. I won’t buy them again.
