What are some brands that you can actually get some thick heavyweight canvas/canvas-adjacent pants from?
I have some double knee Carhart stuff duck pants and they take a beating. I'm an industrial mechanic who works with chemicals. 1620 also good and they got a lifetime warranty

1620 Workwear, never again.
I have returned everything I have ordered from them except their T shirts. Kind of hard to screw up a heavy weight T. Now after a few months of wear and wash, their logo at the bottom hem is falling off all the shirts. I am so done ordering from them.

My idea of the perfect Work pants
Very well, I could also just be a picky baby, and I like to buy high-end stuff that I know will last me a lifetime if I can afford it and it actually works for me. I can’t say this enough that I really wish 1620 workwear made pants with a little bit more of a relaxed fit because they are as close as I have found to a perfect work pant. The durability on them is unbelievable, as well as the thoughtfulness in just about every part of their pants.

ISO work pants/jeans that don’t look/feel like work pants
1620 Shop Pants, get them in black to hide the stains, or just use simple green and a pressure washer to get grease and oil stains out of any piece of clothing. Most comfortable pair of pants I own, lightweight, and stretchy.

Work Pants That Last
Truwerk or 1620 are Amazing. if you’re on a tight budget and don’t mind being hot as the devil, Ariat rebar jeans are extremely tough and not overpriced.

Work Pants That Last
I stopped buying Duluth work clothes years ago. The quality dropped and the lifetime warranty disappeared. Now I wear Truewerk and 1620. The 1620 are better and more durable than what the fire house pants once were.

Long-lasting shirt and pants for wood cutting work
A little on the spendy side, but 1620 pants and jackets are very nice. [https://www.1620usa.com/](https://www.1620usa.com/) In some of their products they use NYCO and other tech-y fabrics that are a little stretchy, water resistant, and very very abrasion resistant especially compared to cotton duck fabric. I would look at their Foundation pant before pulling the trigger on something like the durastretch or double knee pants. However, I would also recommend getting coveralls if you're splitting a lot of wood or a pair of those expensive chainsaw pants if you're clearing a lot of trees. They're all about the same Arborwear, or Husqvarna or Stihl, arbortech, treestuff etc.. But they all have that chain stopping fabric that clogs the chainsaw before it can cut your leg. More like PPE than "pants" if that makes sense. I would always wear the Stihl chaps and the integrated helmet/hearing protection/facemask thing if I was running the chainsaw all day.

Stuff you will continue buying for life
Clothes from 1620, but it will be a while before my next purchase because everything last so long and it can be repaired.

Duluth Trading Company Fire Hose pants, exactly my size and near perfect condition, for $15 from my local military surplus store.
Just pants … they have above the law pants … pretty nice. To be fair 1620 twice the price … but yo it’s worth it

I disagree completely…. Pants don’t last a season I’m done with Duluth all together…… I know my choices are expensive but 1620 and truwerk … have a pair of Kuhls I like but I’m way off the firehouse
