Hanes Sport Ultimate Men's Fleece Joggers, 32" Light Steel 2XL

These are heavy weight and very warm. Very comfortable and sized generously. My only wish that they had a back pocket. I missed that. I'm not a big fan of the elastic ankle so I removed the elastic and made them open bottom. Not hard to do at all. If you have any sewing skills. But an incredibly good value anyway. So I gave them five stars.

I am recommending this product only because I know most clothing is no longer made like it used to be made. I was actually looking for heavyweight (14-15g), mostly cotton (90%) sweat pants. I have 2 pair that have lasted for about 15 years or more. I wanted heavywaeight and I wanted cotton, specifically but once I began searching for what I wanted, I realized the sweats I wanted were much harder to find, now. Almost all sweats have way too much polyester in them and are not as durable and heavy as they once were. I ordered these because they state in the description from the manufacturer, not the distribution center, the sweats were their ultimate heavyweight sweats and gave the weight of the cotton (12.5g) in the sweats. Apparently, the weight of sweats now is much lower, Lower now because, as I found out through my searches, the heavyweight, real cotton is not as popular as it once was and more costly to manufacture. People want lightweight, super stretchy items. FYI-they don't last but most of society doesn't care about durability. There is one particular brand of sweat pants I wanted and their description and entire website touts their sweats are the same as they used to always be since they began making sweat pants. It just so happens there was a much less expensive brand, Hanes, showing up in my searches and having the exact same weight as the heaviest brands of all other companies including the company I originally wanted to use for my purchase. Since the Hanes brand sweats were much less expensive and were the same weight as the other brand, I bought the Hanes. I have learned now, the weight is still not as heavy as the older ones were on either brand. So, if I cannot get the weight of cotton I want because no company manufactures it anymore then I now have the next best thing and will just have to deal with it until someone decides to make sweats with the ”old school “ cotton weight, again. The Hanes sweats are great and just what I wanted except the weight but this is an acceptable substitute due to pricing and only a slightly smaller weight difference in the cotton. They fit well/true to size and do what I need them to do. They are warm enough for SEGeorgia cold temperatures and are exactly as described. Great for workouts, lounging, yard work, sitting around and sleeping if you like medium-thick clothing to sleep. They are a full drawstring waistband and have the closed ankles. Nothing fancy just plain old sweats.
