Very happy to hear. I like the elastic waist currently in "five.___" company pants i have as they feel more secure and forgiving with movement and with or without belts. The LAPG ones look spot on if that is the style being brought in. I personally dont use for D ring but don't mind if it's on there. Shorts in similar style (for warmer competiton shooting days) would be awesome! Would be ordering at least 2 pairs of pants and shorts.
