I brought a Carhartt insulated construction jacket in the late 90's, it lasted me ten years. I was happy with it. The around 2010 I brought a second on it lasted 2 years before it started to fall apart. Someone got greedy and there quality went into the toilet. Never again.
Drying clothing every time in dryer will also help it not last as long. And if you wear it everyday of course it's not gonna lasts.
@@Ryan-1999 you totally missed the point.
@@Ryan-1999i see that you and the point are not very well acquainted.
It’s because now people are picking up carhartt for a fashion statement instead of work. So carhartt can get away with it because they’re still sturdier than any fast fashion clothes.
Carhartt made thier employees take the jab. I stopped wearing Carhartt and went back to Wrangler. I hope Carhartt employee sue Carhartt... I will not spend a dime on Carhartt, Nike or rebook. I retaliate against tyrannical companies
And the Halloween costume is complete. Stoked to go as Cody this year!!!
Where'd you get your toupe?
@@GassHogg beat me to it🤣🤣🤣
Are you going to be a mini-Cody, or are you > 6’?
Need some LocTite.
Duluth 40grit has found home in my wardrobe drawers…. Impressed with the build and wearability. Only had them 2 years so durability is still in testing…
But agree on keeping the same patterns of pants and shirt. You always know where your stuff is in the pockets and belt.
I do the same, I have 20-30 pair of Dickie's Navy blue 13in work shorts, and hundreds of "Stafford Heavyweight Cotton Tee's" and I just bought 15 new pair of Dickies shorts for Black Friday sale. But I am retired military and very used to not having to choose my daily outfit. Simple dimple, same combo every day.
Worn Hanes, BVD, Fruit of the Loom, and many others, I too have found Stafford to be the best Tee's so far. Also retired military. For 21 years didn't think about what to wear. After I re-entered civilian life, had to decide what to wear every single day, took some getting used to.
I can relate to this! I was in the military as well and worked for an EMS co for years. but for the last 23 years I've worked for a utility co and I don't have to wear a uniform... but I still wear basically the same thing everyday! lol. love it!
"Welcome back friends to the closet." Lol...well thanks for having us Cody....
You beat me to it
Trapped in the drive thru
I just got out of here
Cozy Cody .
=)
How did he know I've been here before?
Having attended a boarding school I fell in love with a daily 'uniform'. At age 74 I own seven dresses all the same maker, style, colour and it is so nice to get up and not fret about what to wear. I look neat, clean and sane (laughing).And it saves me money in the long run since I am not buying clothing that won't be worn or will end up being donated for lack of use.
I'm retired military, honestly uniforms make life simpler. I work EMS and also worked in an ER since the military. I'm again wearing uniforms.
Looking sane is handy. Frees you up to not have to be.
I went to public schools and I always wished we had uniforms.
I too like the idea, I'm just concerned with people a) thinking I own one pair of clothes b) my wife doesn't think like this and c) as far as looking sane, I would wander if people thought I was weird for wearing the same thing every day.
Pretty nifty
The first video I saw of yours was about the Ram Pump. I never looked back. Thank you for several years of solid, reliable, and entertaining content. I recently moved my family from "Wine country" to a new state to the north. I will be trying out some of the hemp clothing for the first time. The Wrangler and Carhartt jeans I have used for decades are getting noticeably less good, and noticeably more expensive! I hadn't considered hemp jeans until just now.
I love the videos. I’m a fire sprinkler fitter and plumber/gasfitter and I’m pretty hard on my work clothes. I found carhartt has gone downhill the past decade. Mine are always tearing apart. I bought a pair of Patagonia pants and overalls after I saw your video. They’re super comfy! I’m excited to see how they hold up. God bless you and your family!
How'd they hold up?
How'd they hold up?
@@andrewwilson8374 @Bosnian.Spartan The pants are still going. Cons- I don't like the inseam but you get used to it. 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. I liked the top bib pocket on the overalls. it has a nice zipper pocket and the front pocket fit my iphone pro max with the otterbox defender. It has a button that divides the pocket you can open if you have a bigger phone.
I will definitely purchase the overalls again for work and pants for wearing at home. I will try the winter overalls for the homestead this winter.
I should also mention that Patagonia offered to replace the overalls but I decided it was easier to replace the suspender clip. Great customer service and they stand behind their product.
When you feel good and safe in the clothes you wear, it's like having the right tools for the job, and it somehow frees you up to concentrate on the work you need to do with confidence. Good video, Cody.
Important to be comfortable when you work, eh!
Cody, if all partys were up for it, I think a lot of us would like to see how the old homestead is doing. Best wishes
Which one?
I like that the pant pockets appear to be deep. I had the same EDC knife for decades and lost it last weekend while wearing a pair of pants with shallow pockets.
I have Patagonia shorts (stand up shorts) that I've been wearing forever, some pairs are over 10-15. years old wearing them regularly. I'm hard on stuff, I work outside as a guide. They stand behind their products and actively encourage repair rather than replacement- that's something I can get behind. My ski patrol uniforms have all been Patagonia and last many seasons, and they repair them in the off season for us. They definitely stand out in the world of disposable clothing.
Thank you Cody for all that you do. Your recommendations last year made me decide to get prepared for lock-downs (~February 2020). That supply really got us through the year. We didn't have to fight down TP or cleaning supplies. We also saved a load of cash when the prices went up.
Great to hear!
@@wranglerstar The only thing I had to look for during the lock down last year was a disinfectant / laundry additive that isn't necessary but I do like. I was pretty upset with myself for not having it on the shelf. Today I went out and topped up my supplies. I'm good for at least a few months.
I live on a small farm and a vast majority of our food comes off my land. We now milk our goats and sheep and blend the milk. I no longer depend on the stores for that. I grew up in the Boy Scouts so "Be prepared" is my mantra. We live s prepper-like lifestyle and have certain items stocked. You are correct, it saved me a boat load of $$ when the prices skyrocketed.
@@wranglerstarso what do you buy instead of carhartt that doesn't break the bank
Have worn roundhouse overalls for years. They have lasted so much longer than any other brand I’ve ever found.
I am glad to see that I am not alone thinking and doing things certain way. Thanks for making this video spreading good advice.
As simple as this episode was, I strangely found it exciting to know where to buy my pants. I guess I've definitely graduated from dad to Grandpa.
Seriously, as funny as that may sound I'm very thankful because it's hard to buy good American clothes these days and for your input, I am very grateful.
I like how you stick to the old school when the new things are only of worse quality but don't hesitate to jump on the best new technologies whenever you see they're of great quality and will improve your quality of life (Garmin Phenix is just an example of that)
It's hard not to get stuck in principles and "good enough"s and you're really not that kind of person. It's been great listening to your advices for a couple of years now, have a great one 👍
Very well said,
Carhartt has went straight down the gutter, I used to only wear Carhartt but not anymore, the quality is not like it used to be. I'm a farmer and durability matters!
What do you wear now?
Give Mountain Khakis a try, but buy them from Poshmark and go up 2" in the waist because they run small.
Daluth trading and I don't like them, I've tried several different types and haven't found a good pair yet
@@FarmersforTruth carhartt is so overpriced too
Is this farmers for truth about 9'11
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.
LOL!
Fantastic story! I was giving something to my co-worker last week and it had me patting down my jacket and pants trying to find which pocket I had put it in. It is hell come laundry day.
LMAO ! My friend Mike tells me, “I always get the last word when I argue with my wife”, I ask him “ how’s that Mike ? “ He answers back “yes dear”
Are britches short pants?
I once went on a date. A lady met me at my condo for us to walk to dinner. She saw me in my attire and proceeded to walk into my bedroom area and closet to pick out a new shirt. I was wearing the white shirt with suit thing. I laughed and rolled with it. I told her she would be a one nighter.
Those "wildland" belts are actually military riggers belts. And they come in a variety of thicknesses, widths, and styles. The D-ring buckle is used to rig equipmemt or lanyards, and some are even rated for rapelling so you don't need a full harness
I discovered some pants made by a company called Noble. Love them. I am so glad to hear that somebody as accomplished and diverse as you has a horrible sense of direction...I have the same problem
Can you do an update video on how you use your Baofeng radios, and how you picked a frequency to talk to your circle please, I just ordered my family a set and we could use some help with them.
Agreed. I never know which frequency I’m allowed to use without a license.
@@RitzWood32 Just use any frequenecy that's not for an emergency service, those toxic HAM radio guys can shove it.
@@schwuzi It's the FCC that makes the rules, why blame ham radio people?.
@@RitzWood32 Just get a GMRS license, good for 10 years. The price is only $70 for now but is suppose to be coming down as soon as FCC gets its act together, if that's possible. The new radios are really awesome.
@@schwuzi so basically if I hear static it’s not an emergency service and I’m good? Lol
You’re an awesome man, this made me smile so thank you 😎 God bless you & Mrs. W! 🙏
I've been really liking Key apparel, and Berne recently for most my daily drivers, but I'd be interested in them Patagonia pants, as I really do enjoy hemp and bamboo, and wool fabrics, they're so much nicer than cotton and plastic junk. More durable, and better thermo regulation.
I love my Garmin instinct solar. Does everything I need it to do and one charge can last me a month.
Covert threads makes a great set of socks. I bought 10 pair of desert boot socks before a deployment and it became the socks all others will be judged by. Still my go to all weather sock.
I might have to give those work pants a try. One thing I've learned while watching a little of your channel here and there, is that if you recommend a product, it's a damn good product.
So refreshing and reassuring to hear another hard working individual admit that their sense of direction is almost (trust me on this) as horrible as mine. Long time subscriber, thanks for everything!
I wore Carhartt double front pants and Westco Jobmaster boots while logging and working Forest Service road construction in the 1980s. I wore the same thing in grad school at about the same time.
Hey Cody, great episode. I was wondering if you could post some websites to find those pants and the other goodies. Marvelous job, thanks again for everything.
Your internet didn’t come with google?
I wear bib overalls for work every day. So true what you say about Carhartt. I actually wrote to them voicing my concerns about how their product has been declining in quality over the years. They of-course apologized in their response and, (not in so many words) basically thanked me for the decades of business I gave them.. but that things were what they were. I don't believe that they are made for hard work anymore. Thinking of trying Patagonia. Tried Duluth and they didn't hold up liked I'd hoped either.
Carhaart became more of a fashion brand than a hard work brand
Oh, I got a Patagonia barn coat in their hemp, and I couldn't believe how soft the material is (and by their claim it's more abrasion resistant than cotton canvas)! The coat also has so many pockets, which when doing stuff like hoof trimmings, or vaccinations I have somewhere for everything. I don't even need my bucket. They aren't joking though when they say the coats run large, lol. The back pocket always amazes me, because I keep a pair of leather glove in it, and when sitting down I don't feel them. I have genuinely forgotten they were there a couple times!
Also by chance scored several Patagonia flannel shirts from Goodwill, brand new (or very close to new) for $14/ea, and they're some of the softest shirts I have that are also a light flannel.
I love their button up flannel shirts. I think all of mine were purchased second hand too, can’t beat the price. For the heat of Summer their AC button up shirts are awesome, any hint of air movement goes right through them.
I wear whatever pants, shirts, shorts, and dress clothes that I can find at yard sales or thrift stores. I almost never spend more than ten bucks on any article of clothing, except for insulated bibs and rain gear. I love my Carhart hoodies and rain jacket.
I went in a thrift store. Just had bins full of pants, not organized, just dig through it. Dark blue Dickies and RedKap pants. .13¢ a pair or two for .25¢ and I spent $50.00 and have work pants for the rest of my life. Over half were brand new, never worn. Have a pair on now. I got all different sizes. Bigger and smaller, I can always wear the bigger ones around home. Mainly got ones that fit. They had shirts too, but had iron on patches. So I just got a few long sleeve shirts to wear welding or mechanics.
i have worn two watches for several years now. Right wrist is an iWatch and left wrist is my Omega Seamaster.
The Patagonia Iron Forge pants are great, but those back pockets can be tricky if you have to crawl around. I found that the stuff would just dump out when I was on a creeper under my car.
Forgot to write this down the first time...
Roundhouse (former work pants on back order)
Patagonia (current work pants, made of hemp)
Levi's classic denim (work shirt)
Garmin Fenix Sapphire (52mm watch)
Solomon's low-top hikers (shoe)
Wildland Belt (govt buckle & yellow-striped webbing)
thank you
I've had the fenix 6X sapphire for a couple of months now and its well worth the investment. I absolutely love it. Has to be the sapphire model guys!!! I've hit it against metal vehicle ramps scrapped it against vehicle parts etc etc and the is not a mark on it, a real workers watch.
Is it really considered a work watch/ no better options than a massive sport geared watch? I thought that was really interesting or is it just that everyone is wearing sports wear/gear and this just works?
@@georgesjunk I have busted 2 Fitbit watches and many more in the past (charge 4 and versa 2) before giving up with Fitbit all together. At first I couldn't justify the fenix because of the price. I looked at Casio G-Shock mudmaster, I like the way it looks but it's just too chunky for a mechanic, I'd be taking it off every 5 mins. Eventually it was down to fenix 6x sapphire or just the fenix 6x. I'm so glad I picked the sapphire model, this thing just doesn't scratch at all. Look at RUclips videos on sapphire glass it's truly amazing. I too wouldn't wear anything else now. It tells me whether, live maps, GPS, messages and notifications from my phone which I can reply on the watch, select music on the watch, compass, altimeter, fitness tracking and too much else to list.
I say it's a workers watch because no other watch can do all this and take a beating that a mechanic gives a watch, covered in oil, coolant, smacked, knocked pulled, covered in brake dust and dirt. I just wash my hands gently wipe the watch and it's like new every time
mines the 5x in sapphire since it came out! im super rough on watches as in none make it to 3rd year! this has....
Patagonia quality is outstanding. Fit, function, durability is great, and they have really good customer service and repair policy. But as a company they stand against nearly everything I do....and they put a lot of money in to their causes. It's been really hard to buy their product over the past several years because as good as it is, I know that buying it is indirectly supporting causes that I am vehemently against.
What causes are those?
@@1ohtaf1 They seem to lean left and campaign against climate deniers...sounds good to me lol better than other companies it seems..somewhat.
Their politics have turned me away from the products. They certainly would be contrary to Cody @wranglerstar. Some of it is good intended for the good of the land and I am fairly progressive as a rancher but as a rancher it stands contrary to my stance on so many animal issues. It is also comical that thousands buy from this company who I know do not vote in line with their ideologies
Word they are the worst
@@ranchhouse349 Can you be specific about which causes you disagree on Patagonia with?
3:48 Trigger warning for anyone who was whipped with a belt as a kid. lol
Anyone else get the doubled over mouth shape CRACK! warning? Just me? Cool.
Oh yes. That sound will put the fear of God in ya.
When He jerked His belt off it looked just liked My Daddy fixing to give a much needed life lesson, He was the best Man i have ever know
The tears that come aren’t from the beat down, it’s from the disappointment of the lack of humanity from your Gods/Idols to understand & guide your innocent soul civilly…Violence isn’t necessary when you have words.
@@randycates2697 phrasing
Yup know that sound well
I have been a sworn advocate of Duluth Trading Co.'s DuluthFlex Firehose Cargo Work pants for a few years now. The durability and comfort of them suits me very well. Maybe even more importantly, the pocket configuration is *PERFECT* for my particular EDC loadout. For summer wear, I use the shorts version of these pants for the same reasons and for the pocket configuration. I must admit the rear pocket on the Patagonia pants you showed looks pretty cool. I may have to try a pair of them out just to see.
I work in a stamping plant and it took me over 7 years to wear a hole through a pair of Duluth's firehose pants. I swear by them.
I’ve tried my hardest to destroy my Duluth pants, but every time I take them out of the wash they still look brand new, never buying anything that isn’t Duluth, hell even their underwear is amazing
@@derekroberts4526 You must not be walking much in them then. Took me less than half that time even wearing them seasonally...
I work in varying temperature high humidity environments and they don’t even last 3 months on the job.
I've done this since my mid twenties. If you job doesn't include some sort of uniforms it not only makes it easier in the morning to figure out what to wear, it looks more professional.
Mostly, for me it boils down to efficiency !
I wish I could find something similar for women who want just simple things to wear. And be able to afford them.great subject Cody 👍
So you don't wear wranglers?! 😄
I do the same thing, and it absolutely befuddles my wife.
She has bought me different clothes, and they just take up space in the closet.
Ever since I started working restoration I began wearing Wrangler Riggs Ranger pants. My company bought you a few pairs a year and you definitely went through them if you worked like I did. They've got pockets on pockets and are the most rugged pair of pants I ever wore. They're more expensive than the pants you been talking about but not by much
Hemp has always been better! Back in the day the people that owned the cotton mills badmouthed it so that they wouldn’t have to change their infrastructure.
Lobbyists cover up anything good to keep the money to the people who’ve had it lol
Timber industry was the one that had the bs studies and what started reefer madness
Cotton is more comfortable and easier to dye so it’s not just that joe Rogan talking point
@@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.
@@defoperator7993 lol wat
I used to buy the carhart dungarees double front rigging pants. I switched to Wrangler Riggs after the quality declined on carhart
Thanks for the bits of knowledge. You found it worth sharing, and I find it worth adopting in some factor.
Is Patagonia made in America? If not I would have stuck with Made In America Roundhouse that's what I wear! I always,always seek out American made products as much as possible!
I live in Europe and it is a shame that most people over here don't care where their stuff is made. The quality off for example metal tools that are made in Solingen Germany are one of the best in the world and people will still buy the Chinese ones, because they are a bit cheaper.
I hope that people will realise that western goods made locally are worth the extra cash but a lot of people simply to not care.
L.C. King is. Look them up. You won’t regret it
Unfortunately clothing companies are going the way of car companies adding in planned obsolescence so that you are required to buy more after the old product gets messed up. They don't think of it as "lets make a product that lasts years and years of daily use" they think "this product will get ruined after X amount of time so we can sell the consumer the a replacement which means more money".
I have some pairs of double knee pants as I work on the ground a lot on my equipment and landscaping. The knees lasted but they get thin right above the double knee and tear so I think I'm going to shed some weight in material and go with a standard pant again. I might try those Patagonia! I have a couple pair of Carhartt and have been decently pleased with longevity.
I actually really like my Carhartt double knee pants! I was wearing them every day while working on the tobacco farm, fixing tractors, loading export trucks, everything. Kept wearing them every day when I moved to manufacturing paper. They have held up extremely well, but they are warm during the summer. I do like the back pockets of your Patagonia pants being offset, I will definitely consider them 5 years from now when I need new pants!
My double knee Carhartt lasted me less than 8 months until they were completely covered in holes. I do residential hvac install. They’re okay but I’m gonna try something else. If I don’t get the double knee carhartt those last me less than 3 months. Glad they work for you though.
@chris miller actually, a month or two after I posted that, each pair that didn't have rivets started disintegrating like you said. The riveted ones are still in awesome shape for whatever reason. I started buying some cheap $13 Walmart jeans now, can't justify the pants if they are going to suddenly lose integrity all at once
@@OldMotorcycleAdventures I hear ya man, I think I’ll be doing the same thing here soon.
I have a similar stance when it comes to Levi's, as theyre the only blue jean i like. I only buy pants made in 1994, or earlier, but i specifically search for pants made between 1980 and 94, usa made exclusively. They dont make them the way they used to.
Carhartt is a victim of this, my ex wife has a pair of black double knees that are at least 10 to 20 years old, and they are so much more durable than newer ones, the double knee is slightly thicker, too.
I'd recommend some of Jocko Willinks jeans. They're American made.
Levi's is too woke for me. Way too woke.
Can you share a link on where to get the pants? I love the pockets,ive had to switch my wallet to my side pocket due to back pain when sitting
Yes can someone post a link to the pants?
Recently, in the last 2 years or so carhartt has improved, somewhat. Works for me, quite durable.
I work in lawn care so I tend to be pretty hard on my clothing. My hats are all Carhartt, I love them. That being said I bought one pair of there pants and do not plan on ever getting a second. 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.
Try the Duluth trading company flex firehose pants. So far mine are great.
@@Appalachianasshole41 and cost way too much
@@calebthacker2162 ypu ever heard of sales? You the type of hmguy whobwalks on a car lot and pays sticker price? Sure as hell sounds like it. Maybe stop being cheap and accept that a quality product costs more.
I would love to find a pair of decent quality hemp workpants, but patagonia seems to be one of those overpriced lifestyle brands. If anyone knows an alternative brand, i would be happy to receive a recommendation. thanks a lot and greetings from germany.

Free Fly is a bamboo, similar to hemp in feel.
@@thomasrouse3826 thank you, will check them out. 👍
edit: could not find workpants on their website. the only pants i found are polyester with bamboo lining and those don't seem to be workpants. :(
Bamboo is just Rayon, but that is the source material. Still uses quite a number of harmful chemicals to be made into the useable fiber.
Those pants look nice but at 79USD on their website before shipping, it must be close to a 1000 cad for 7. It is not what I would call a bargain 😅
Duluth Trading Company has some of the toughest pants in their "firehose pants". I was a groundsman for 3 years cutting trees alternating 2 pairs of firehouse pants & i beat the heck out of them. Toughest pants I've ever owned & ended up getting a few more. As far as comfort, I think wranglerstar's may outperform the firehose pants but Duluth Trading Company also sells flexible pants & their famous ball room drawers.
Very practical. I wish I could adopt a system of attire as consistent as this
We are so much alike, I'm glad that I'm not the only one who finds a clothing item they like, then buys up a bunch. I'm not a RUclipsr, so I don't have to worry about being consistent in what I wear, so I typically buy several colors in the same pant or shirt. I wish that I could wear heavy pants, but the Summers where I live are brutal and humid, so I opt for 5.11 pants that are a synthetic blend. Totally agree on Carhartt, the fit and quality is awful. Duluth Trading is even worse; their shirts and pants fit like a bedsheet and they're rags after a few seasons. I always look forward to Fall and Winter when I can wear my Pendleton Board and Lodge shirts. I would love to see you do a video dedicated to wool products like Pendleton, Filson, and Woolrich.
Nice, I like those pockets, that's a cool idea! I started buying only large/tall shirts, I'm just 5'10" tall but they stay tucked in much better than normal length shirts and I hate a darn shirt that won't stay tucked in...most irritating thing in the world (or one of them).
Quit wearing Carhartt pants in the early 2000s. Still felt and looked good, but kept wearing out in the same spots. One thing I still do buy from them is their socks. Once I put them on I don’t want to take them off; feel so good. Of course they’re like 5 bucks a pair now, but worth it to me. Have them on right now.
Look into redwing socks
Look into Darn Tough socks, made in VT and life time warranty. Best socks out there!!!!!
They are comfortable, and they wear well, but they get funky and without bleaching to kill the funk (not feasible with a colored sock) I don't know what to do with them. I've got a dozen or so pairs of them sitting in my drawer, fairly new and can't stand to wear them because they make my boots funky.
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.
I love your way of handling continuity. I used to do work for o e of the hosts of a popular flipping show. He puked drive around with a dozen outfits in the back of his fancy SUV. When I asked him what the deal was he explained to me that he often would have to go back to certain properties for re-shoots and he had to make sure that he had the outfit with him for continuity purposes. I like your approach much better.
It's a good idea to stock up. I have a favourite brand of socks I've used for 15 years. The manufacturer went bankrupt a year ago and I felt worried I'll never get those socks again. Luckily their production continued under a new owner.
Cant believe you went to a smart watch Cody! I almost go as far as saying how dare you sir!! Lol just kidding god bless you guys have a great day.
I bought a pair of Carhartt double knee from 1986 with a price tag on them from Mervyn's department store at a local gun show and they've lasted me 4 years now the quality is not as good as they used to be for sure
I grew up in the 90s wearing carhartt for work wear and it was great. Nowadays a pair of the double knee work pants lasts about 6 months then they fall apart. I decided to try a pair of the patagonia double knee pants and I've worn them 3 days at my job. They seem great but only time will tell. Now if they would only make an insulated pair like fleece or flannel lined.
Love this plan I'm working on doing this myself just 7 outfits but I've collected a mass assortment of shirts and pants. Growing up with limited money for clothes I went crazy as an adult haha.
It's the same for me.
Cody, hemp will wear like iron and will last a LOT longer than cotton! That's one of the reasons it was made illegal, thanks to the cotton industry and lobbyists.
Big Cotton conspiracy!!! :)
Yeppers I now live in the "big cotton" area. I was talking with some locals and the hemp subject I got the "deer in the headlights" when I brought that point up on when and why it was made illegal / banned. But then re started in limited areas for the War effort of WW2 a teacher of mine in H.S. had bought a farm that had been a hemp farm for WW2. He explained it and the history of it, his main classes was history, civics.
@@zachrorke9046 Cotton and chemical industry. Cotton is one of the plants in the world with the most needed onset of pesticides whlie hemp dont need any. Also paper is made out of hemp is longer lasting than that made of wood/cellulose. Thats why the timber industry also was involved.
I called the Patagonia store in Portland, but it seems the pants they have do not have the "off set" rear pockets, which I really want! Can you please confirm the exact model of these pants? Or a link to purchase them? TIA!!!
Looking at their website, I believe they are Rattan $69
RATN | Style No. 55785. You can scroll down and see more pictures and the back pockets flare to the side of the leg.
I’d really like to try a pair of these but I’ve heard they have leg openings like trash bags. Anyone have any insight on this? Are they really that bad? I’m only a 30-32” inseam depending on brand but have debated ordering these in a long so I can cuff them and reduce the size of the opening a bit.
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.
They would need too they are £90 a pair here in U.K. my first couple of pairs of Carharrt shorts have worn through they are 4 years old but as you say made in Mexico. I may have to try the Patagonia’s now.
There's a guy on Etsy that makes those wildland belts. Jet stream Aero Parts. I got one for Christmas and it's been the best belt I've ever owned.
Second this. I got one from this guy and it’s great. The buckle even has the MS number.
@@filster1934 They're almost the same design. If the Bison Designs belt doesn't work for you this one probably will have the same issue.
Steve Jobs had the same philosophy about clothes too. He said that it's one less thing to waste time thinking about in the morning.
I use to buy Roundhouse because it was American Made, but no more. The last several pairs of Roundhouse Bibbs that I use in my videos (same reason as yourself & Leno), were so far below what they were in quality, I could no longer justify the purchase. I am very pleased to see this video for an alternative suggestion in clothing. Thank You and God Bless you and yours.
NEW SUB HERE!!! Actually, I had watched a couple instructional vids in the past, but wasn't a heavy watcher of the ole RUclips. Now, as a wily vet, I've learned the RUclips ways and have become addicted to your wholesome content. This is an idea I'm gonna adopt....Thank you
I’ve been using the Wrangler All Terrain reinforced utility pants which I find have been durable and warm. I will be checking out the Patagonia recommendation as they make great gear with an amazing warranty.
Thank you! I bought 6 pairs of the wrangler ATX pants and as a larger guy with tree trunk legs, it’s the only pant that fits properly (looks good, not baggy) but is also comfortable and stretches a bit to form fit. Very breathable.
@@doxx2265 They’re my favorite pant for the last few seasons. Their Outdoor line makes a really comfortable nylon/spandex pant that’s great for shoulder seasons, depending on your use. Great for hiking, camping, casual, etc. This is not a paid advertisement, lol.
Style Number: NW780SM More breathable and comfortable, lightweight.
Tougher shell: NS837PT Outdoor work in high grass summer time breathable. Also lightweight.
Ditto, I've got several pairs now. Cheap and tough, amazing fit, great look. Switched from Duluth Trading.
Same here, I fell in love with the ATG's and now my local Tractor store quit carrying them !
They are by far my most comfortable, functional, and favorite pant to date !
Don’t buy Patagonia. They are part of the woke community. A lot of their profits go towards the woke left agenda.
Years ago I bought a pair of double front carhartt pants and a pair of dickies classic work pants with cargo pockets, on the same day, I wore one pare one week straight, then the next week I’d switch.
The carhartt lasted about 5 years or so, while I still have the dickies today, they are basically done now, holes everywhere, but they out lived the carhartts by about 10 years, doing the exact same work, and they had one less layer of material on them.
I recently tried Duluth and the stretchy firehose pants are fantastic. Super comfortable.
Very comfy but they don’t hold up
@@MattieK09 definitely not true, those pants are bulletproof
dose anyone know what kind of pants style this is called? ive tried to find pants with smiller back pockets and have no luck
You always have to buy ahead now with our fashion society. By the time you realize how good a product is they discontinue it. LL Bean used to make great stuff but no longer. I have some work pants nearly 15 years old that still hold up. It was called “Katahdin Iron Works” but no longer. I even called to ask if they could source the fabric or repair mine but they said no more.
Yep I found found that with boots, so now when I find a model I really like oi talk in my old set for repair and buy 2 new pairs. The last 3 boots I really liked they discontinued after about 5 years. I'll stop buying them when I have 10 pairs in reserve, I figure that will at least cover me for the next 25 years or so lol
@@tylermallory2504 I was an LL Bean customer for nearly 40 years but no more. Their products' quality has declined and virtually everything they sell is made offshore, with much coming from China. I bought a pair of Roundhouse overalls this spring and I love them. They are well made and should last a long time and they are USA made.
@@tomst9417 nice, I really like kitanica products by far the best quality I have found in the last 20 years. Check em out! If you're familiar with the quality of nicks boots then you'll understand the quality of kitanica!!!
Seems like there are 4 different model of hemp pants, can you give the model or style number please?
It’s the iron forge 5 pocket pants
Style no. 55296
No, he wears the "all season hemp double knee pants" . They have the unusual rear pockets and are lighter material than the 5 pocket pants which have the regular back pockets and are 12.9 oz material
I wear the Carhartt FR regular fit jeans daily. They hold up pretty good and are really comfortable which is the main reason I like them so much.
I do the same thing, once I find something that works for me I buy them in batches for two reasons. First I like to have extra pairs on hand in case I wear them out, and the second reason is that clothing manufacturers change their clothing lines every couple years.
My wife has me looking at Patagonia pants for my birthday! Which style did you decide on? They have many. Thanks, and keep up the great work.
Style 55296, double knee is my guess
@@david2284180 That was my guess. Thanks!
Carhart quality has gone down. although somehow they have premium lines that are better quality. the brand has become kind of “hipster” lately. but i can’t blame them that’s where the money is at.
I’ve found that if you buy the Carhartt stuff that is made in the Mexico facility it lasts far longer than any others.
wrangler has gone downhill too......
Thanks 😊Hemp is great to make so many things, clothing, building materials, soaps, paper,
medicinal etc etc great farm idea for productivity and Eco friendly too.
Would you mind posting the specs on the new watch? I’ve been looking for a new watch for quite a while. From the video I got Garmin Fenix Sapphire. There is a 5x and a 6x. Which one did you get?
You were ahead of the curve Cody. Now you dont have to post a Carhartt burning video this (current) week. LOL
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
The “my pillow” guy says the best cotton comes from Egypt? Is that so?
To be fair, the hemp plant absorbs heavy metals and toxins from the soil. Not the greatest thing in the whole world.
@@pascalrouen Thats not bad at all. Cotton need a high intake of pesticides while hemp dont.
I run into the same issues with shoes & boots. I have short but really wide feet (Think duck) so finding something durable that fits is kind of rare. Once I do I make it a point to snatch up several pairs. Thanks for the tip on the pants.
Just found the Patagonia pants myself recently. Very comfortable. Been doing Carhartt for ever. Still not giving them up.
Where did you find the Patagonia pants? Thank you for your help.
Because now it's so cheaply made that you're paying a premium for a tiny square tag and a pile of cheap fibers. Sorry, too many brands have taken the plunge for Chinese manufacturing and bigger profits over quality clothes.
I used to wear the Carhartts too. About two years ago I switched to Duluth Trading. The firehose pants are great. I also shop like you do.
Can anyone tell us what model of Patagonia pant that is?
Anyone know how hemp burns if your working with flames and heat?
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.
Interesting observation, I didn’t know that.
I’m checking my gear.
I think my old Timex automatic will out live any smartwatch ever made but definitely gotta get me some of those pants.
Thank you so mutch for the name of the belt. My dad gave me his old one from when he was in the forservice (he repelled out of helicopter and liked his cus he could clip equipment like his chainsaw to his belt and leg and it wouldn’t do anything to the belt) I’ve been wanting to get a green or brown one since black and good to finally know the name.
I am the same, when I find something that fits well, I get a few. For me it takes the thought process of thinking of what to wear. 👍
