Also: Jeans are terrible pants. They are good at making your dump truck look good and that’s about it. They are the best work pants, and I would argue poor ones at that. If they’re heavy enough fabric to withstand blue collar or outdoors work, it leads to too much wear on the inner thighs and an extremely short life span. Go lighter, and they don’t protect you from stuff. Reinforce the area with leather, and washing becomes questionable. For daily wear they are heavy, and inflexible, unless you go modern stretch jeans which have durability issues as well.
Unfortunately they’re the only real option if you want to have a loop for your key carabiner and a pocket knife. Khakis make you look like you tuck your shirts in, and cargo pants make it look like you carry tater tots in your pockets.
