      Oh dont get me started on how enshittification has hit clothing these days. I tried to get a pair from a brand I’d seen someone at work in, but because the company got bought out, they were made pf the thinnest material I’ve seen, every stitch had a long thread coming out of it somewhere. They went straight to the charity shop cause scamazon wont take them back

        Yeah it’s horrible. I used to be able to get at least a year out of a pair (I wear them every day and do a lot of physical work that really tears them up) and now like I said the last two had crotch rips within two months. It also felt like they changed the cut of them as well. I dug out an older pair to substitute in my rotation and it was waaaaay roomier than the new pair and still the same size

          Not to sound like a shill but Scruffs are pretty solid, have been using them in a rough environment for a few years without them collapsing (they have a reinforced patch in the crotch to boot)
