Yup, agree on the jeans. Now that I'm retired and working 7 days a week on my OWN projects, my everyday clothes are jeans and a t-shirt and sweatshirt. They can get pretty dirty and the wife complains that she can't get them clean if I wear them more than a day or two. I also have to wear suspenders with them. If I don't, I'll be constantly pulling them up or I'll look like a gangsta from the hood. :wink: I've considered bib overalls but I just can't see myself walking around in those. (I laugh when I see the moonshiners on TV wearing bibs and no shirt underneath. Real classy look. :lol: )
Anyway, I've got 27 pairs of jeans in various condition and 2 sizes due to slight weight fluctuations so I've given in to the wife (SWMBO) and don't wear them more than a day or two. I have to laugh when I pull a fresh pair out, put them on and she says "they're filthy, put them in the wash". She's usually right but I just say "you'd better talk to the laundry lady because these just came out of the drawer". (I do this from a distance).
BTW, I mentioned suspenders. I have a pair that I got when we started skiing 40+ years ago. They're a little frayed but held up my jeans very well. Last year, the kids got me a new pair (Craftsman) for xmas. Very sturdy material but the darned clips won't stay on the jeans. You move a little bit or reach for something and *pop*, off comes a clip. I've gone back to the old ones and have looked closely at the Craftsman ones and think I can tweak the clips to get them to grip the jeans better. Anyone have the same issue or can recommend a good set of work suspenders?

Today's Featured Article - A Cautionary Tale - by Ian Minshull. In the early 1950s my father bought an Allis Chalmers B and I used it for all the row crop work with the mangolds and potatoes, rolling and the haymaking on our farm. The farm and the Allis were sold and I have spent a lifetime working on farms throughout the country. I promised myself that one day I would own an Allis. That time event
