R. W Do these have side zippers for extra ventilation when you're working hard?
TED P Hello R.W., Just purchased and received a pair of these this week. They do not have a zipper on either side. They do have a thick, ribbed-elastic type material in a 'V' shape ~8" long on the sides where you might think there would be a zipper. Warm weather here since receiving these, so haven't been able to test them yet. I am 6' 1" tall with a 34' waist, a size large fits me perfectly. Wouldn't want them any smaller. These are not as rugged as I would like. If you are "working hard" with equipment or cutting firewood... etc, I would not recommend these. Go with some Carharrts instead. These will probably hang, or snag and rip much too easily for someone doing rugged work. For skiing, playing in the snow, or shoveling the walk they will be great.
