So far, the best bdu's I've had are the Marine marpat trousers. While the camo is great, the design behind them is the best I've used.

1) the waist band does not have the cinches. instead, it has elastic on the waist

2) the cargo pockets have an elastic band along the top edge which keeps things in your pocket, as well as keeping things snugged up to your thigh, without banging around.

3) they are treated with a wrinkle free treatment... wash and wear.

4) No cinch straps at the cuff, makes it nice when you want to wear them without blousing.

5) the knees also have pad inserts
