Fire hose pants

[Woodtic]

Anyone out there try these pants from Duluth Trading Co? Work jeans just don't last anymore.

My Dad has a shirt-jacket from them made out of that material. Seems to be well built and heavy. The fire hose fabric has held up well and looks like it will last for awhile.

I love em. I keep trying to buy more but they are often out of my size. The only thing that is an issue, the velcro wears out on the pockets. I've been climbing in the rafters and almost lost a couple of tools. The material is about as comfortable as denim, but it lasts well through all the construction stuff that wears out jeans so fast. They are a bit warmer than jeans so keep that in mind for temps.

Stopped in their store in Mt. Horeb, the pants looked nice and heavy. Disappointed that they currently have no ties to Duluth though. Store personel didn't even know how the name came to be.

Thanks, just ordered a pair. Paul

Depends on what you call "ties". They were originally from Duluth and currently are located in Belleville, WI.. Good products all around. Their plumbers butt tees are great !!!

I have a few pairs that are a few years old, and will continue to buy more, especially now that they recently opened a store in our area!

I'd say they're probably twice as tough as Carhardt jeans, maybe even more, and far more comfortable. I've been told by a number of folks that there waranteed forever, but we'll see about that. They certainly are more expensive than Carhardts, but they're worth it IMO..........

Another happy customer of Duluth Trading Co products.

I also like their stuff, was in Duluth a few weeks ago and looked for the store, LOL. Apparently they never had a store or factory in Duluth.
They started in the harbor on a boat, it was their office or something??. Belleville, WI is the first store.

I only found the Duluth Pack store.

I know these are just pants.Crawled all over a boiler plant,all day.They feel like wearing sweatpants. I wish I would have bought them a few years ago.

Do they feel heavy to wear-more so than jeans?
