I think everyone should own at least one pair of these pants. they are the toughest pants in the world!

awesome pants for any labor worker out there. they take a little while to break in but once they do they're super comfy. a great buy overall

Carhartt pants are the only pants I own, they go everywhere and do everything with me. Camping, carpentry, contruction, biking, partying, they are up for it all. They become a second skin to me, bearing their own battle wounds and carrying their own life story. When the time comes for me to retire my pants every few years, I try to avoid it. I apply patches but the Cotton Duck is so thin by then it wont hold the thread well. When i finally break down and get a new pair, i become determined to make them as comfortable as the last pair.

Ask any construction worker and he will say that he has a whole outfit of Carhartt stuff. It may be expensive but they take the abuse un like many other pants. It's not a designer brand They are made to be tough. Definitely worth the extra $$$. They are kind of stiff but after awhile they get a little better. I wear mine at least 2 times a week through rock climbing and random acts of play they still are in great shape. The extra layer of material on the bottom and the knees is a nice touch Pros--- BOMBPROOF. Cons- no gusseted crotch, ridged material. Also check out mountain khakis

I feel to go indepth on the carhartt is to almost give in on the secret of the club. I mean, these pants are probably one of the most worth-while investments that you can make as far as work pants go. I did fire rehab work in New Mexico and wore these EVERY DAY. Now, I wear them post-skiing because I've broken them into the point that they are more comfortable then most jeans. They fit true to size, and are really the stanard in work pants.
