I agree with ya on the fact that levi's can't take the abuse, thats why i also wear the dickies version of the carhart brown pants, half the price but just as good.
ya but they sure do burn good.. i was cutting in welding class and the bottom of my boots the jeans were frayed a bit.. i had a few sparks come down and i didnt realize they caught on fire till the flames were almost to my knees.. thank god i had my cowboy boots on.. course i might have figured out they were on fire earlier if i wasn wearing them. taht ruined a good pair of jeans.. but now i figured out to bring an old pair of jeans for welding class.
i'm a fan of dickies and rustler, cheap but i also build a lot of motors so i always get grease on them or chlorine from the farm that eats them so i replace them about every other year
we need to get a thread about carhartts lol!

I got a good dozen pair of Wrangler 13 MWZ's. I can work on my trucks one day, turn around build fence in them the next, work cows the next, then wear them at school.
I guess they're the Ford version of jeans, my one truck can do the work of 5.
I have about 13 pairs of BullHead Jeans
Boot cut, loose, regular,and straights
but noooo to skinny jeans
I used to like wranglers but then I became more athletic and my calves feel tight in wranglers so I found a jean thats a bit more comfortable anyways
Its usually to hot to wear jeans at any other time but school so Theres a lot more shorts and board shorts that I wear

You can run but you cant..........
Oh hell you cant even run.
Skinny jeans can burn in H**L!!! Im almost all carhartt. I prefer the black double fronts. I like them because as far as im concerned they are indestructable. Caught on fire in welding class one time. Didn't even know until someone hollered at me. Burnt my flannel shirt i was wearing all to hell. But the carhartts just burnt a little. A little close to the family jewels, but they held. And they didn't fall apart in the wash later.
2 blue jean carhartt double front w/ suspender buttons
1 tan pair double front
3 black double front
2 camo single front.
1 pair "nice" jeans for special occations.
Good for all occations except church, weddings, funerals, and family holidays.

I like Wranglers. They're comfortable and they fit right. Plus mine are darker and tend to hide grease stains better than anything else. I used to have Levis and a mixture of pretty much everything, but I found a pair of Wranglers that fit and then on I replaced everything with Wranglers.
I tried Carhartt jeans before, but they seem to rip too easily. I'd constantly wear out the knees doing hay or rip big holes when they got caught on a piece of steel I brushed against. Wranglers just seem to hold up better.
I used to wear relaxed fit wranglers but I would tear crotches out when they would snag climbing fence and I ripped tons of holes in the legs doing farm work. Went to Rural King and bought their Real Work Wear jeans for $10!!!!! Had 3 pairs over a year now with no rips or anything and went back and bought 2 more this year. My wranglers are still in the dresser but as a last resort.
so, am i the only one here how has a couple pair of JNCO jeans? i think i have about 3 or 4 pairs left. other than that its whatever i can get cheap from the thrift store. i really dont like new clothing, id much rather spend my money on other things.
