I've worn these quite a bit for about two seasons, so there's a lot of pilling and signs of wear, such as twisting of the elastic waistband. The care label tag is also about to come off. There's a linear scratch on the seat, as if the surface thread caught on something, but it doesn't look like it's about to tear. The image of the knees looks a bit white, but they're not actually white. They feel a little stretched, but there are no tears.
