Khakis?

**rallen** · December 20th, 2007, 07:44 PM

Have any of you run into any clothier that makes a dressy, pleated khaki that will accept a 1 1/2 or 1 3/4 belt? I carry on my belt often and the dockers that I have do not cut it.

Try some of the "work clothes".
Most of them make khakis now and do have a larger belt loop (work clothes).
Good Luck!

Damn skippy!

They also have a slightly heavier cloth and resist the urge to print.

BTW, pleating really is a fashion choice. Skinny guys can wear pleats, fat guys wearing pleats just look more obviously fat (I'm of the latter and never wear pleats)

Bill's must be great for $97! :-) You can get 4 pair of Dickie's for the same $$$

I have some 5.11 Tactical Covert Khaki's. LOVE Them, though they are not pleated.

Each front hip pocket has a zippered concealed inner pocket that holds 2 spare mags within separate elastic pockets. Kind of hard to describe - just google it! Also great for loose change-- it can't fall out when you sit down. The pants also have concealed cargo pockets on the outer thighs with a small zipper along the seam that is barely noticeable. They are a perfect size for a knife or small flashlight or even more mags if you're in a bad part of town

.

Oh yeah - these can be had for around $40-$50 online and be sure to order a size smaller than you normally wear, both waist and inseam.
