I like the hammer loop location. I never use the leg loop because it's swinging around and hitting me too much.

[@douglasphillips24]

Got tired of crouch blowing out of jeans at work so I got me some 1620 foundation pants and they're perfect fit and extremely durable . Love these pants 💯.

Thank you E! Farm life looks like a good life. Appreciate the love, more gear soon for the fall!

Great video! And dig your vibe. The knee pad slot is on the outside just under the double knee hem at the shin... there's an opening between the two layers you slide the knee pad into.

[@artemkanarchist]

I have finally found someone, who has the same pants issue! Thanks for your work and for the video too!

[@Sgd1024]

I’ve had a very love/hate relarelationship with 1620. Had the button down work shirt come without the pencil slot stitched in to it. Also had a pair of single knee utility pants show up with the stitching on the reinforced part on the pocket stitched down to the pant so you could even use it or slide a pocket knife in. Then had a pair of foundation pants show up and the stitching came apart in the crotch before I even wore them out of the house. 1620 did correct all the issues and customer service has been great. Now the same foundation pant is developing a hole in the back pocket with under two months of wear. For workwear I do not see the justification for the price at all. Have wore Carhartt for many years and they last just as long and I have not experienced so many issues. It is a shame because I really liked the clothing and gave them more than a fair chance. The hoodie is a bit long and the fit is a bit snug but I understand why they’ve done that. Once you get used to it it’s actually nice. The pants could stand to be a bit higher rise for me

[@cleo8665]

I love seeing ur animals, Farmer E! U're constantly making sure they r comfortable and safe. Think of ur new pants as an investment...sure, they're pricey, but if they last twice as long as ur old ones, they're worth it. Btw, u have the most piercing blue eyes, just wanted to tell u that. HUGS from French woman who lives in Canada!!

Thank you, Sandy!

[@zinknot]

I saw on the website that they have a lifetime warranty. Maybe only certain pairs, I'm not sure.

[@Frontporchsittin]

Love my 1620’s. Have 3 pairs and they are well worth the money.

[@taylorsessions4143]

How can a pair of pants be worth $200? I really think at that price a pair of work pants should do the work for me.

[@rattrap8819]

Insane amount of $.

[@kaceesavage]

I’ve been rocking the carhartt rugged flex for a couple years now and they are holding up pretty well. The flexibility is great, I wonder if those articulated knees would also do the trick. Thanks for another video!

[@FarmerE]

Thank you!

[@zinknot]

The new Carharts are so thin compared to the old ones. They don't seem any tougher than Dickies.

[@kaceesavage]

@@zinknot for sure thinner but there are 2 or 3 styles of the standard looking flexible work pants some are closer to the standard thickness. They hold up pretty well for being stretchy and a little thinner. I haven’t tried out the new dickies that stretch. The only thing I didn’t really like about the dickies I’ve had was that the cellphone pocket was too far back on my leg, otherwise they are good pants too.

[@lobbyrobby]

I'm thinking about trying a pair of 1620 pants. And now I also want a pet pig

[@riciaswebb406]

The 1620 DKUP definitely look worthy of Farmer E. They make you into a WPSM (worthy pants super model). I hope it works out. I'm putting these on the "maybe" list for my husband.

[@FarmerE]

Thank you!! Wohoo! I´ll keep testing them for your husband

[@ericrotermund1004]

I have the double knee cargo nyco Best decision!! If I take the time I spend finding new pants lol it’s worth the extra these cost. I carry inside the waste band. Walther pps. So I bought 36/34 my actual size is 34-35 I was buying Duluth fire house pants but the sizing went wrong. I have a hard time spending almost $80 on pants that don’t fit. The issue is I hate shopping. Normally I can only buy the 2-3 pairs that the store has in stock. I really liked the Duluth fire hose. But I can tell the 1620 will out last the Duluth. The cut on the 1620 is for sure the most fitted pants I have ever owned I would say that’s actually the best part. I have decided I will buy 2-3 pairs every year weather I need them or not. You can tell a lot of thought was put into these pants,job well done.

[@douglasphillips24]

It's not that denim itself isn't durable for the farm, it's that in general the jeans sold now are less durable. The weave and weight is different.

[@Nuggetbusterr]

I'm pretty sure Wrangler is the only one that makes denim like it should be, and kept it affordable.

[@constancegreiner906]

Right? They found levis from the 1800s in mines! Still holding up.

[@douglasphillips24]

I was hesitant to pay that much for pants but after ordering foundation pants I quickly ordered other colors and wear them to work and they're good enough for Church as well or just everyday wear.

[@TexF18]

If you want good work jeans no frills look at wildass brand that Bailey's sells

[@adamsmiths3016]

​@@Nuggetbusterrwranglers are best price per wear hands down.

[@AfflictionAce]

Would love to see how these pants held up.

[@TonberryShuffle]

I have the same pair of pants and when you first get them they do have a sort of shine on the fabric that fades after a wash or two. After that you can't tell them apart (appearance wise) from traditional canvas pants. They are more comfortable and fit better than any carhartts I've ever worn, though.

[@MrMoadka]

If you like overall consider to try the Kobler ones, here in Canada it’s DeLaval who sales them. I’m dairy farmer tie stall so I need to squat to milk the cows and the Carhartt don’t hold a full winter. The Kobler are super flexible and seem pretty sturdy, I just got them for one month and really liked them.

[@steampower9990]

So as an oyster farmer I've managed to fck up every pair of pants I can get my hands on for several reasons but one of the top issues is the rain gear we use is very rough inside and chews threw material at an impressive rate, Carhartt was my go too pant for about 30 years and now there just not the same, I can kill a double knee pair of Carhartt pants in less than 8 months and that's in several areas that we really do not want to give out 🤣 my tin pants holt to the task but are far to warm for the majority of the year perhaps I'll try to kill some of these for a bit... Going to keep looking but maybe this is the next purchase 🤔

1620 rocks. I have 3 pairs from them and will literally never wear any other pants except a pair of USA made khakis to church and such. They are just so comfortable and water repellent and quick drying.

[@ericrotermund1004]

Which model do you have? I got the double knee nyco cargo. Feel the same way as you do. Screw cheap pants not worth it. My dad lives close so I ride my bike to his place all the time. Two days after i bought my first test pair of 1620 Was riding around some bags of cement that had spilled off a truck earlier in the day. Bike tire caught the edge of the pavement and I went down on my left knee hard And slid for a couple feet tore through the first layer of my new pants. Not a scratch just sore knee Had I been wearing imported crap I would have torn off lots of skin. Sent them back for a repair.(free) I just payed shipping I don’t like to give my labor away so don’t really care for getting stuff at someone else’s expense So I bought three more pairs and the goofy hooded sweatshirt with zipper. Online sucks sometimes! I like the cut but the fabric is a bit on the weak side. Yeah it has the reinforced pockets and elbow arm pads but I’m just used to the monster Carhart fabric I forget the model. I wish more companies would fire the bean counters and just make good stuff. If you make a better product we will pay more. If you make it here that’s good too. The problem with Americans is they don’t look at lifecycle cost. Cheap crap is just crap. Buy once cry once. Don’t be a jerk expecting free repairs if they fix your pants buy another pair too. I sew on my old ass white sewing machine for some custom stuff because so cannot find what I want. Wow it’s a lot of work. I really admire the trade. There is a ton that goes into doing it right fabrics are not cheap. So do think they are making a fortune selling $200 plus pants. They are not!

Dickies while being cheaper certainly don’t last as long as Carhartt. I think with work pants it really is a case of you get what you pay for. But also it’s worth noting that at the end of the day it’s all about what your needs are. If it’s hot or whatever and you require a thinner more light weight feel then dickies for sure.
