working shop guy wear for pants?</font>
<br>
<br><font size="2" face="sans-serif">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.</font>
<br>
<br><font size="2" face="sans-serif">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. </font>
<br>
<br><font size="2" face="sans-serif">I was wondering what other may have
found.</font>
<br>
<br><font size="2" face="sans-serif">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.</font>

<br><font size="2" face="sans-serif">My Army pants work and last pretty well,
but they aren't really good for welding and such.</font>
<br>
<br><font size="2" face="sans-serif">Anyone know of any good alternatives?</font>
<br>
<br><font size="2" face="sans-serif">Thanks</font>
