These are totally worth it. Leather is heavy duty seem well made. Sizing is a bit different then I expected. These fit at your bellybutton ( like tuxedo pants) not at your hip bones. At my bellybutton I measured myself at 47" at my hip bones (where I normally wear jeans) 43". I ordered a size 46 because according to the description of the product it says a size 46(44"). If fact when I measured the pants they measured a true 47". I did not take into account that your going to want the pants to fit a little snug so they don't fall down when walking around. I solved the loose waist issues by installing bachelor buttons on the pants and buying carhartt mens dungaree suspenders. Now these are the most comfortable pants I own.
