The verdict
Fit
Identical fit to the washed black version—6.5-inch inseam, refined tapered cut. Spruce is a deeper, earthy green that reads more casual than black.
Quality
Essential linen line quality throughout. Spruce may require more intentional color pairing than a neutral.
Is the price fair?
138 USD for a well-made linen short in a signature color. Fair pricing; the color limits its use.
Best for
Men who love rich, nature-inspired tones and have outfits built around green accents.
Care
Hand wash or gentle machine wash; hang dry. Rich colors benefit from cooler water and mild detergent.
What owners report about Faherty pants
Reviewers who have worn Faherty pants across seasons report that the stretch-blend chinos and five-pocket styles hold their shape rather than bagging out, with fabrics described as soft and lightweight without feeling flimsy. Owners place the range between jeans and dress chinos in formality — casual enough for weekends but presentable at an office. The recurring complaints in third-party coverage are the premium prices and cuts some owners find roomy or boxy enough to need tailoring.
