Update on July 25, 2016:  I contacted Grand River directly and was answered by the owners who sent a replacement pair in acknowledgement of my concerns. GREAT customer service and they are back to being my favorite jeans!  The quality is back!

I have purchased 8 pairs, but the last will be my last unless they get back their previous quality. The pair I purchased this Spring have the same label, but are made in Pakistan instead of Madagascar and the denim is much lighter, scratchy, the coin pocket is wierdly placed, just a poor imitation of Grand Rivers past quality. They've lost this customer unless they return to what made them so great.
