Not good with my 1911
I really wanted to like these cargo pants, but alas I feel like I am too noticeable with a giant bulge at my crotch (insert inappropriate joke here).
The quality of these pants are unparalleled top notch construction, and look good.
The problem is that I carry a Commander size 1911, and even with the pocket shield, the big bulge looks unnatural. When sitting in church, there is no doubt what is in my front pocket.
I am going back to my IWB holster, but will keep these around in case I should ever buy a smaller 1911. I don’t do polymer guns, and I think these pants would work well with one of those smaller and lighter guns.
Finally, the owner and business model are second to none. Good info/videos and customer service.

Hello David,
Thank you for taking the time to write a review about your CCW Breakaways experience. We always welcome feedback from our customers. And while we don't agree with your rating, we do agree with your conclusions! Pocket Carry is not ideal for a FULL SIZE 1911 Commander. We do have customers who choose to do it, but it is not ideal and we do not endorse our concealed carry pants & shorts to be utilized with that firearm. We feel the Commander is better carried in an IWB Holster due to its size and weight. Please see the video at this URL: https://ccwbreakaways.com/what-gun-size-works-best/
So while we respect your choice of firearms and believe that its a misapplication for our products, we do appreciate the kind words you expressed about our quality and business ethics. Yes, we are a small business that aims for 5 Star Quality and 5 Star Customer Service. Thousands of customers tell us the same.
Best wishes finding the right holster for your specific application.
Jay French
