@madmonday:

Awww. Thanks man!

We got the go ahead from the local cops for this spot. Keep it free of graffiti and we can build what we want!

And, yes, the little things are where my heart is.

Dude, my gut looks big. I ain't obstaining tho.

nice pics stokley.

I like my new black ducks so much, I can not wait to pick up a pair of the brown when G gets a restock.

[michaeljcr]

I'd like to try the brown in these when they re-stock. I'd try black, but my orange cat's fur would be all over them in a nanosecond!

been wearing the black ducks nonstop for almost three weeks now…...  Keep in mind I have a really really long legs and a short torso.

I have noticed when working on the ground or kneeling down on the knees.... the double knee does not come below the knee joint.  The seam at the bottom of the double knee hits me about the middle of the knee cap when kneeling down working off the ground, which is a little uncomfortable.

Trust me I do a lot of kneeling down to kiss the bosses ass and ask for a raise...My boss is a woman so I guess I do not mind

This will not stop me from buying another pair.....

For this work pant if it is ok to suggest one minor improvement, it would be to make the double knee 3 to 4 inches longer going down the leg.  They are fantastic in every other way, maybe the rise could be just a little higher...... but I like a high rise where most other people do not.

This is in no way ment to be critical.  just something I have noticed while working in these pants.

Thats the construction on the overall. The double layer extend up to the shin and on most shorter legs like me, its almost sit down in my leg… Really comfortable...

Mank I looked at the overalls, the double layer is perfect length!! when the double layer extends past the knee to the shin it will allow the full knee to be behind the double layer.  Overalls have moved up on the list of things to get.

Kind of like this,  here is a picture of some double knee jeans.  with the double layer going into the shin.

Is it alright to hot soak cotton duck?  My waist 36 is really big and I just wanted to know if I hot soak will shrink them a little.  I love these pants but they are stubborn as hell. I've been wearing for 3 weeks and their still falling…..

[mankarat]

hot soak wont shrink much. try a hot wash. agitation is needed in shrinking process, but dont expect a shrink like jeans. it wont shrink and stretch much..

[MikeC]

Thanks Mank. I'll keep wearing them for a few more weeks, then I'll hot wash. I'll be sure to follow the rules for washing too.

[mankarat]

yes, always inside out and avoid fast spinning. But i guess you will be ok with 801. Less stiff than 804..
