Carhartts--was Levis Boycott
cj wrote in message ...
For hay, try Carhart logger's pants. I had never heard of Carhartts before I moved to the midwest. I do own their insulated bibs for winter time and borrow hubby's coveralls when it's really cold. Got a Carhartt coat too. Guess I'll try the jeans. Jena |

Carhartts--was Levis Boycott
I buy jeans for mostly farm work. I only keep 2 pair for casual. I
kind of float to where I can get the best deal. There is a Vanity Fair Outlet Mall in the next town over where I can get irregular Lee and Wrangler (and their off brands) for 1/2 price or lower. Rustlers are regularly $8. You can wear out a whole bunch of $8 jeans instead of $35 Levis. I do however, buy Carhartt online from Seirra Trading Post (http://www.sierratradingpost.com/default.asp). They usually have good deals on closeout merchandise. A couple of examples are $22.25 for Carhartt washed denim work pants and $35 for Carhartt overalls. They also usually have the heavier duck dungarees that I wear for heavy brush and fence work. When it comes to bibs though there is nothing better than a good old pair of Oshkosh B'Gosh overalls. Believe it or not they are usually on sale for $34.99 on their website (http://www.oshkoshbgosh.com/products...on.asp?did=402), It is hard to beat that deal. Having a farm these days is rarely a winning proposition. I have to take every opportunity I have to save money.

Jena Jena, my husband switched over to Carhartt jeans last year from regular type jeans including Levis. He's not been sorry. They're strong as iron and look good too. However, don't be surprised, if some people look at you kinda odd and ask what funny kind of jeans you wearing? I swear, my husband was asked several times at work why he didn't get a pair of 'real' jeans.

Carhartts--was Levis Boycott
It amazes me how cheap Carhartt's are considering the construction
quality and the fact they're made in Michigan not some Chinese Province. They're the VW Vanagon of utility clothes; function before fashion. scr Vancouver, WA |
