Not just any pants, though, Buck. They're a very, very accurate prop replica coming from a vendor notorious for selling affordable costumes of quality. I really want a pair when I get a job. ;D Steven

After all the years of having to make do with "Close-enough's" it's probably natural now to be waaay too happy about how good the current offerings are and will get to be..LOL..It's taken way too long to happen but then it all comes and we can't stop the giddy feelings....LOL..

It might be a stupid question, but why not just buy Magnoli? They're as close as you get. Is it because of the price? (not asking anyone in particular, just a general question, anyone feel free to answer)

I did....And Wested's... But I'd hazard a guess that Todd's in general is a fair bit cheaper....So there might be hope that the Cavalry Wool they can source will be the same lower price? I dunno....I haven't bought anything from Todd's yet because I'm not really sure about the consistency or the quality...(I'm paying more for it, but I respect that I KNOW in advance that what I get is good...So it's a balance)..

One thing to consider is how expensive wool cavalry twill is. For example: www.bblackandsons.com/tan-cavalry-twill-p-845.html That is the price per yard! So you figure that Magnoli or Todd's or whatever company has to purchase it in bulk and would get a discount. I wonder what it is about the process of creating this material that causes it to be so expensive. Just thoughts to consider. Plus I know that Magnoli and Todd's both make great products, so either version of trousers will be worth it!

They may not be the best, but Todd makes great quality products. The pants are going to be made of cavalry twill wool so they should be good. And he's making them Raiders accurate, so that's good.

Todd's makes it affordable for me to get my gear that looks good . so yes until i am waiting for the pants from Todd's ,

When those pants come out, I may be able to buy them. (Of course, I'm counting on them arriving earlier than that...) I, too, will be looking forward to them. Steven

From what I've been told...... The pants will be in stock within the next couple of months. Also trying to figure out buttons. Pant are going to be military hemmed! As well as most waist sizes! So I asked about a pre order and was told NO. So I'm sure when they get them they'll go extremely fast. I'm totally guessing but I'm sure they be around $75-$120?

I'm guessing around $100 or less. I could be wrong, though...

$100!? I should hope they would be between $50 and $75. I mean, Magnoli's pants aren't much over $100. With Magnoli, you have the option of different materials, colors and they are custom fit to your specs. Todd's will just be OTR in several sizes. I hope they aren't anywhere near $100. -Josh

My thoughts exactly Mr Fusion Todd's makes good stuff but for $100 might as well get magnoil's or Wested hope`n for the $50 or $60 range

I can't wait to see these pants show up on Todd's website, I just got my Downtowner from Todd's so the pants are next on my list. I am hoping for $50 to $60 too and for them to come with an unfinished hem since I am 6' 3", unless the vendor is going to do a 4 to 5 inch hem automatically, that would be kinda cool, but not everyone fits off the rack sizes.
