I purchased two pair of these jeans to replace older Wranglers that have lasted forever.  One pair started to separate near the left pocket at a rivit after a few wearings.  The other pair let loose during the first few hours. I also had found pumice and gravel in the pockets when they first arrived.  Weangler seems to have let up on Quality Control. I am very glad that I had made the purchase from Amazon.  They helped me right away to make the return. 1 star for Wrangler - 5 Stars for Aman at Amazon. (I just ordered some Lee jeans.)
