Comment on I consistently wear out the same spot in the seat of my work pants

Dang, and already use Carhartt.

I have a friend like you, he has the same problem. Isn’t it Carhartt that has the “firehose” material pants? He found those were a lot tougher.

You can patch from the inside using the same patches as for the knees, but you gotta catch it as soon as it starts.

Mine wear out in the crotch not long after I patch the knees. My pair of firehose pants are still going.

You’re probably thinking of Duluth Trading Co.

  +1 for duluth.
  
  I used to go through a pair of pants every couple months. About a year ago I bought a pair of jeans and firehouse overalls from them and they’re still holding up great after getting worn to hell.

  Updoot for duluth trading co. They also include a feature which may aid this (at least in the crotch-region): Gussets on pants/jeans.

    And they build more stretch into the pants.
