In Reply to: OT; Rustler Jeans posted by Gene Dotson on November 15, 2007 at 10:34:19:
I have tried Rustlers and liked the fit and the price--they were about half what Levis or Wranglers cost. But I found that they wore out fairly fast.
My problem with most jeans is that the top corners of the back pockets tend to tear out. I generally carry my wallet in one back pocket and my checkbook in the other. Neither item is particularly thick. I have wondered if I somehow catch the pocket on something and tear the cloth. Anyway, that is where my jeans usually wear out first...which doesn't worry me much for working around home. I wish they would reinforce the upper corners of the back pockets.
When I was a kid, I always wore out the right back pocket of my jeans, because that was where I usually carried a pair of pliers for fixing fence. Occasionally I would split a pair of jeans on the inside of the thigh if I really flexed my legs pushing or lifting something. But now I buy jeans that are not cut as tight as the ones I used to get.
The last couple of pairs of jeans I have bought have come from Costco, the Kirkland brand. They were inexpensive and seem to fit OK. It is too soon to see how well they will wear, but the cloth feels as heavy as the last Levis I bought, and a lot thicker than the Rustlers.
There are lots of companies selling jeans. I haven't found any that were too bad. You might want to try the relaxed fit style if you are splitting them. They are not cut so tight and give more room where I need it. Good luck!
