I recently purchased these pants for first response applications. Fantastic performance out of the gate. Very comfortable to wear. Look great and easy to maintain. When responding to a call I have quick access to my must haves even when kneeling. I can access my 'scope, pads, pens, lights, gloves and everything has a secure home in the ample and well designed pockets. I actually like these ones better than my 5.11 Taclite Pro pants.
