From Hell

If you go Here http://www.duluthtrading.com/store/andmore_home/andmore_firehose/andmore_firehose.aspx?navlocation=dept_left
You'll see the Whole page of Clothing Made from Fire Hose material.I've Tested out a Pair of the Brown 5 Pocket Work Jeans for the past 6 Months or So.OK Carhartt Hasn't got shaZam! on them.In the 6 Month Period that I've worn them I would have Already worn out 3-4 Pair of Levis.Take it from me I'm rough on Everything I wear.Sorry For the Plug For Duluth but I figured that If I saved some one from a Case of Road Rash I'd be forgiven.

If you'll look Around on the Page they Have Work Pants with extra Storage,Logger Pants with Extra Protection on the Knees and Shins and Then they have the Fleece Lined for Colder weather riding and a Little Extra Cushioning.Sure the Colors Suck and they don't Exactly match my other riding Gear but what the Hell.

I like them so Much I ordered a Pair of the Dark Brown 5 Pocket Jeans and a Pair of the Brown Overalls today.

cool stuff, I ordered 3 catalogs and I'd like to see the material in person. I thrash pants too, but I can't seem to wear out my double knee carharts in the thick duck material they have.

Take it from me Carhartt Material has Nothing on this stuff.It's Carhartt x10.There was Some Comments from a Guy a Few Catalogs Ago that said He Slide down the Road when he Wrecked His Bike.He Said that there Wasn't Any Damage to Him or His Pants.

Where did you buy yours? Army/Navy? Surplus? Or is there a retailer that sells them?

I guess what I'm wondering is how can I tell whether it's the real thing or cheap knockoffs? By the way, thanks for your service.

Do it.

I did put in a Suggestion of Producing them in Black since Light Brown and Dark Brown is the Only Choice in the 5 Pocket Jean.They said that they would Seriously consider it.
