Hey Man, Nice Pants

Posted on Jun 10, 2010 in Apparel | 2 comments

I already used the Father’s Day Online Shopping Guide to buy my dad a designer laptop sleeve he can’t find anywhere else besides eBags.com (it’s so wild!), but his birthday is arriving soon. I’m trying extra hard to avoid the Father’s Day equivalent of the “My Birthday Is Close To Christmas So I Get Shafted” Syndrome, so I ventured out into the world of pants on Bonobos.com…

Like the wild laptop case I purchased from eBags, these pants are nearly as wild! I plan on buying a more neutral trouser.

Yes, I know pants are VERY difficult to buy for someone, but getting a pair of slacks that fits like a glove shows that the gifter has put some serious thought and possibly some serious risk into their gifting. However, with a free shipping AND free returns policy, Bonobos eliminates the risk factor and encourages everyone to try them out.

I’m not worried about having to return the pants I buy though, not with the ease of finding the perfect pair on the website! Bonobos claims a better fit, fabric, and style. Users can narrow by fabric, cut, style, color, and even climate! When in trouble, their “ninjas” can help you find the right size and style to ensure the perfect fit. With its excellent customer service, free shipping, and free returns, you really can’t go wrong with Bonobos.com. That is, of course, unless you want to buy women’s slacks. They don’t yet sell any women’s apparel, but when they do, I know where I’ll go for my trousers!

Multiple narrowing options refines your search for the perfect pair
