For the last seven or eight years I've been wearing the Duluth Trading Company's Fire Hose work pants. After becoming accustomed to having twelve pockets, I found myself in a quandary one evening. I'd recently met and began dating a young lady who I was head over heels for. She was an 11, perfect in every way. We were "going out" that evening and after having "discussed" my usual attire and my lack of style or fashion sense, she insisted that I "dress up" and kindly helped me pick an alternative outfit by leaving it laying on the bed. Not wanting to get into another "discussion" with her, I decided not to point out to her that it was FRIDAY and what she'd picked out was usually reserved for Sunday, and so I did what all men do when smitten - whatever she says. After showering, I put on my Sunday britches, followed by my belt (having slid my multi-tool on it), and then commenced to emptying the pockets of my Duluth's, transferring everything over to my britches and putting it all in their proper pockets. That's when I came to a hard realization...though I'd thought she was perfect, she was eight pockets shy of being my girlfriend.

@@DesertJacks Hemp got caught up in Nixon "War on Drugs'. This is what one of his top advisor, Ehrlichman has to say about it. “You want to know what this was really all about,” Ehrlichman, who died in 1999, said, referring to Nixon’s declaration of war on drugs. “The Nixon campaign in 1968, and the Nixon White House after that, had two enemies: the antiwar left and black people. You understand what I’m saying. We knew we couldn’t make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin, and then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities. We could arrest their leaders, raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news. Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did.” There is debate on whether Ehrlichman statement over simplified the issue. That statement has been public for a while and there hasn't been much to refute that stance.

The inseam is higher and are weird at first which isn't the same as the overall inseam. The pants don't have any side pockets on the leg and I like to carry cobras and a multi bit in the other side. The overalls only have them on one side. I wish they had two like Carhartt overalls. I changed to a utility belt like batman when I wear them. The pockets are a different feel. I like the Carhartt style better. The overalls suspender elastic isn't as supporting as the Carhartt and needs to be adjusted tighter throughout the day. The suspender clips broke on me and I had to buy a replacement clip at Fabricland. Carhartt suspenders and clip system are superior. The Pros- They are nice and lightweight and breath better. The crotch, pockets, and hemp material is superior to the duck. The overalls would still be going but I need to have the crotch repaired from a nail crawling in an attic. Not much you can do about that. They fit true to size for me. I order the overalls a size bigger like Carhartts because I like them a bit looser.

It’s my understanding everything Carhartt makes is now made in Mexico. The Blundstone boots I used to wear were made in Australia or Tasmania.. they’ve moved manufacturing to Viet Nam. The leather is thinner, and the quality just isn’t very good. Politics aside, Patagonia’s clothing have lifetime warranties. I’ve sent a few things back to them and they’ll either fix the item, or send you a new one.

I have found synthetic material to be the most comfortable for working in the heat, like a good pair of hiking pants. But they don’t offer as much protection as denim which I had to find out the hard way. As for belts I absolutely love my grip6 work belt. I wear it all the time. And Hanes workwear high vis shirts are usually my go-to. Quality could be better but I’m yet to find anything I like more.

There is a very VERY good reason the cotton “kings” in Texas fought SO hard for hemp to be banished if you will. That was one of the largest supporting groups spouting propaganda about the negative effects of marijuana in an attempt to give marijuana and all its components (specifically hemp) to have a really REALLY negative public image. Hemp is and has always been a better product and much more versatile as compared to cotton. Oh and btw a large majority of the worlds cotton comes from Texas still even if it’s made into a textile of some sort in another country

Not an issue with good quality white socks, the brand I've been wearing has last me 3 years so far and still going strong. I bought two dozen more not long ago, in case I can't find them when I need more. They are by far the best socks I've ever owned, and they aren't really any more pricey than Hanes or Fruit of the Loom, which by the way are pure garbage anymore.

Tip: 1. always avoid the X stitch pattern that most pants have in the crotch area. look for the added patch that is on a lot of hiking pants. after one has to walk a distance, or move there legs over logs, or in dampness, eventualy the friction of the X pattern that crosses a major blood vein can cause latter in life serious issues. If one looks at typical blue jeans there is often a thick hard square in the middle of X pattern. I guess culturally around the world, we see why farmers or forest workers wore overalls, kilts, baggy pants ect.
