I got the cargos in, and my God, this ain't it, chief (as the saying goes). Here's how they look for someone with a 5'7" (170cm) / 175-lb (79.4 kg) frame with the pants sitting on the waist.
Here's how it looks if you bring it up to belly-button level. That's right; belly-button level. This is where the zipper of the pants can barely reach the halfway mark.
The kick images show you the knee articulation where the seams allow the pants to be more flexible. With it at waist height, it is a solid 3" - 4" BELOW the knee cap, so if you're picky (or if you can't help but notice), it is more restricting than it is more non-restricting.
I guess the only pro is that if you want to look like a high-schooler, this will work, because this was BASICALLY one of my high school outfits. That was 11-14 years ago.
This is for sure going back. I like Nike's pants, but for the most part, they gotta come up with a solid straight fit. No baggy *** upper and no tapered calves; just a straight-fitting pair of ACG cargos. The NikeLab Essentials Cargo is the closest to that example and I love those.
Very happy.

They're a small, and I wear a medium for pants. I can't zip it up at belly-button height. Not sure if that's something embarrassing to admit or if it's the actual truth. 
You're right though; at THAT height, it's much better. I guess anyone with a 5'10" or 5'11" frame and higher will find these more in their favor over me.
Yeah, definitely! I think my best recommendation if you guys want more of the fitted (or traditional straight fit) variation, look into the NikeLab Essentials Cargo pants. Keep in mind that this was made about 15 months ago, so finding them may be particularly tough. Product numbers for them are 890065-010 for black and -451 for obsidian navy blue. Doesn't have as many pockets with that same appeal, but it does have DWR coating. I don't have fit pictures of those, but if you guys want, I can provide some pictures!
us3less thanks for posting the fit pics brotha! I honestly think they look good! even at the waist. But I feel you if baggier isn't your thing.
