Avoid Kuhl - Poor Quality and Customer Service
I love most Kuhl gear I’ve tried. The renegade rock pants for example are no go to pant. I’ve literally spilled Taco Bell on my khaki colored ones during a road trip, slapped some water on them, and the stains were hardly noticeable. Came out in the wash. I also climbed a mountain in Valdez Alaska, thick brush, then wore them to church the next day after a wash. The free radikls however, stained like crazy and wore through in under a year. Normal desk sitting stuff. So they have quality stuff, and some to seriously avoid. I have found the one jacket to be ago to, it stains easily, but comes out easy with some dawn dish soap and water. They strike a good balance as fashionable performance gear, rather than performance gear as fashion if that makes sense. They aren’t the most technical, but they’re great for my weekend trips to the beach or when hiking up a mountain. I do love their shirts, specifically the Klimatizer, Brazen Kuhldry, and Engineered shirt. The renegade button up is also exceptionally wrinkle resistant. That said I have made returns to places like REI for certain models such as the Free Radikls I mentioned, or for sizing issues. Give Kuhl a try, but buy from somewhere like REI or Scheels

I need Work Pants, None Last
The Kuhl Renegade Rock Pant. I have three pairs, first pair I bought over 4 years ago and is still going strong. Used them on hikes, going out, and working in a Home Depot for a year. They are still my favorite pair of pants. Tons of sleek pockets too.
