Does it have stretch?

What pockets does it have?

Five pockets: two front, two spade hip pockets with decorative stitching, and a floating watch pocket.

How should I size it?

Buyers generally take their usual waist size; if you are between sizes or want a looser thigh, consider sizing up.

Our take on the Wrangler Men's Athletic Fit Jean

The Wrangler Men's Athletic Fit Jean is a five-pocket jean cut with extra room through the seat and thigh and a tapered leg, aimed at men who want room to move without a baggy look. Details include a floating watch pocket, spade hip pockets with decorative stitching, side saddle stitching, rivets and a waistband patch. It sits alongside Wrangler's regular and relaxed fits as the roomier-thigh option, and buyers rate it well for comfort and value against pricier athletic-fit jeans.
