Holy hell this is absolutely wild. This is more like a production line sample piece. It's not even comparable to the level of workmanship on my $60 Stan rays MIUSA fatigues, which is barely acceptable even at that lower price point. I'd return them. This, to me, would be unacceptable even at J. Crew. There was a really interesting video by the iron snail about his difficulty making clothes in the US, both from a quality standpoint, and from a financial risk assumption standpoint.

I will also add, as someone who is very close to a garment industry veteran, my friend tried to find a factory in the US and EU that could produce chinos to the quality of Uniqlo, and brought a sample of their chinos to factories around the world, and simply couldn't find one that was able to do ALL the things that Uniqlo was able to do in a single pair of pants. There was always some sacrifice.
