I +1 the Wranglers. Actually, they fit better for me, seem to last longer, and more comfortable. Plus I have $30+ dollars left over to actually buy something else.

Thanks guys. I am interested in those gusset jeans. Do they look just like normal jeans when you are standing up? Also, how thick are their pockets? Sometimes the corners of my pockets start to get uncomfortable riding a long way on a hot day.

I was told a long time ago that HD jeans were manufactured by Levi's. I have been getting my HD jeans for only about $35.00 and sometimes they actually put them on sale.

We have a Dickies brand outlet in Ft.Worth and they sell double kneed jeans for only about $25.00

Spend the extra $20 on the HD jeans. They fit great and are very good quality. They have long out lasted my Levis. It's all I own now because of quality and fit. I work in them, hunt, fish, ride, and wear the black ones for dress.

Costco brand (Kirkland) jeans. Heavy, strong, fit me well. The black doesn't fade. $15.99 and I don't feel too badly if I ruin a pair.

I know, I know, I'm a cheapskate.

I have yet to come across anything with the Kirkland label that I was disappointed in.

Well, anything over $15 bucks for jeans is a little to "upscale" for me. I'd be afraid i would just ruin those expensive jeans and that kinda defeats the purpose of jeans to me.

She was probably looking at a pair with fancy stitching or decorations. You should probably just get the plain jeans. They're $36 in my area.
