I went from 501 to 5.11.  Better for bicycling.  I still have some jeans that are 40 years old and still fit.

I've only had one pair of Levi's in my life, I won a pair of them some 40+ years ago. What happened to them was the same that seems to happen to all my jeans: They wore through right below the back pocket. As far as I understand it's the thick seam of the pocket that either slowly grinds the fabric or stiffens the seam area so that stretching caused by sitting down is concentrated below the pocket instead of being spread to the entire rear.

Good guess, but unfortunately no.

After having read an article about trucker back pain aka wallet sciatica I did like Eagler and moved my wallet to the front pocket. That was about 40 years ago as well.  :old:

Size contests should be settled in the dueling arena.   :D

Just read that Levi’s jeans are not made in America


If Levi's stopped making jeans tomorrow, you could still find their jeans for sale in the Philippines for another 100 years.
If you like the Sick Puppy Custom Sound Pack the please consider contributing for future updates by sending a months dues to Hitech Creations for account "Chalenge." Every little bit helps.

Is a 6-pack really better than a keg?
