I used to wear levi's years ago but  their quality went down hill so I started wearing carhartts. Love these pants. Very tough and flexible too, even with my big legs not too tight. I think the gusseted crotch helps with that. I wear em all the time. Work, weekends, wherever. Oh, and I'm not sure what some of these other guys are talking about the waist not being true to size. They fit me fine except I learned to get the next size longer in length because they will shrink after a lot of washings. Great pants though and I hope Carhartt never stops making them. Thanks Amazon. You keep selling them, and I'll keep buying.
