I’m sick of having my pants rip and tear from light daily use.
Preferrably available in Europe.
Definitely a fan of Levi’s, especially the high-waisted models. I intensely dislike the feeling of my pants being about to fall off, so low-waisted is out. The 516 is my favourite, although I also have 541s, 501s, 505s, and 550s.
From my experience, Levi’s are some of the worst jeans I’ve ever had. They all wear out in 2 years time for me. I tend to get a tear in the crotch area and in the knees. Wrangler jeans seem to do better.
Here’s a jean testing video that tests 12 jeans in Breathability, Rear Pocket Failure, Hammer Loop Failure, Crotch Tear, Puncture Resistance, Abrasion Resistance, and Pocket Puncture Resistance.
