There's some pilling on the inside. The length is long, so I used to fold them up, and there's pilling on the folded-up part. However, I think the outside is relatively clean. Denim tends to fade a little with each wash, but I think these are less prone to fading. You often see denim pants with fleece lining, but I thought this type, like slacks, was also nice and I wore them. I will compress them slightly for shipping. Thank you. 1000→850 →800
