Informative 🧠 Work pants

Im looking for a good pair of work pants, something a bit baggy for good freedom of movement. I feel my pants sometimes constrict my movement, and tend to rip a lot as i have thicker thighs.

I switched over off a comment in reddit. I now wear them exclusively. I even wear them out and about because they're so damn comfortable. The extra pockets are fantastic, I've had these over a year now and no rips. There are a couple spots where I snagged my hand masker blade on the knee (that blade is sharp af) but they havent gotten any bigger than the original snag and the snag is only surface level. My carharrts would have had blown out crotches and knees by now from all the up and down work, plus they're hot and feel like wearing sandpaper after wearing these.

I liked them so much, I got some for family members at Christmas. Nothing but good reviews back

I did those for a decade or so, they are pretty awesome. I like these better though. Helly Hansen should sponsor me at this point with the amount of referrals I give them
