What do YOU use for backyard work clothes?
My mechanics overalls are too difficult to get in and out of as the zipper only goes down to the waist (I wish they made 'em like they do the Aerostitch motorcycle riding suits - where the zipper goes from your neck to your foot).
Yet, I'm on my third pair of backyard work jeans this year - and - well - I don't understand why they all tear either down the front leg from the crotch to the knee or down the rear seam along the side of the pocket down to almost the crotch.
Seems to me, when I was a kid, I wore holes in the knees and in the thighs but now I'm ripping straight down at the crotch level (and these are NOT tight - they're rather loose in fact, levi's 505, among others).
QUESTIONS:
1) Are there easy-to-don overalls online that zipper from head to toe? 2) What's going on with the jeans nowadays (tearing vertically in the front & back)?
