OK, I have to ask what most of you hard working shop guy wear for pants?

No, this isn't a dirty question.  It's just that I burn through shop pants 
fairly quickly.  They mostly rip in the crotch long before they are worn 
out completely.

I switched to Duluth fire hose pants and they seem to be a little better, 
but still not great, and I notice their "No Bull" guarantee has changed a 
lot and isn't so 'no bullish' anymore. 

I was wondering what other may have found.

Note, in the past I also purchased the 'pants by the pound' option.  These 
were cheap pants that were part of a uniform service company that can no 
longer be used by them.  They were cheap, but light duty only.

My Army pants work and last pretty well, but they aren't really good for 
welding and such.

Anyone know of any good alternatives?

Thanks
