WTF is poly/cotton (in terms of pants)?

[xxAgentCowxx]

Is this something you would want pants made out of?

The percentage of the material that is made out of either polyesther or cotton.

All pants are made that way. Example: 25/75 is 25% poly and 75% cotton.

Cotton shrinks and wrinkles very easily. Cotton/poly blends are softer, don't shrink much, and don't wrinkle so easily.

Those of us who despise ironing appreciate poly/cotton blends.
