IH not harder wearing than others?

[Captain]

@jacoavlu:

Sorry for stearing the truck that is this thread back toward the road, but I gotta know:

What is it about your lifestyle that leads to this? You said no jean ever lasted you more than 9 months and obviously youve had lots of different pairs…. So clearly there's something you do that's out of the ordinary. If it were a pair or two maybe it's a bad sample but if every pair you wear blows out super fast, well then, it's you.

(And this is not meant as an insult or accusation. I really wanna know.)

Don't think I lead a harder life than most of the forums members:

Wake up, shave and shower, bike to work (MC in summer), display a coffee cup , looking busy, earning my keep. Bike home, eat, listen to r&r, dance, maybe a beer or spliff, hanging out, take a walk, go to bed, wishing a new IH garment to surface.

I do walk a lot, but I can't see how excessive walking could ruin an IH jean. Some weekends I ramble, but not IH-ruining-much. Could snugness account for my abnormal wear?

How many miles/kilometers do you bike per day?

[stever]

to throw in on this argument/ discourse/ whatever… i blew out my TTS 301s in about  two and a half months. i  cycled an avg 30km in them on weekdays, so i'd guess they've done ~1700km according to my rudimentary calculations

80 days consecutive wear:

to be serious, it's obvious that wearing tight jeans and biking will destroy the crotch quickly.

I think people who bike a lot and war tight jeans should consider this outfit instead:

For every biking friend there is, there will be retaliation. I will post pics of MEAT.  ??? LOL

btw that outfit leaves crotch unprotected…

Seriously, I think I noted this already and as kit99 said tight jawns and biking is no-no, also I think long walks will affect also.

LOL!

@Katsushin:

@Geo:

Am I to understand there is a direct correlation between crotch blowout and the size of the d-ck in the jeans?

Could be misinterpreted…
Maybe p-nis, or schl-ng...

you're right Kat - it could be . . .

What happened to the Crotch Blowout category on the main page?  I think we finally have a fitting thread for it.

Captain, have you considered patching your jeans BEFORE starting to wear them?  I'm sure SelfEdge would do this for you.  Their patches have nylon threads mixed with the cloth to improve strength.

I got a 3/4" hole in the crotch after just 4 months of daily wear.  I did a lot of walking in them.  I'm waiting in these to get repaired.

[jacoavlu]

Wow. What's "a lot of walking?"

[smittybat]

10-20 miles a week

No need now. Walk plenty… IN YOUR FREE JEANS!

[Beatle]

jaco - 100%

[injunjack]

guys…are you serious, that's only 16-32 kilometres in a week.  and that's max 4,5km's in a day.  If that's divided even for all weekdays.

Am I missing something here or am I too serious in the morning?
