i have Red Kap carpenters for my work uniforms.  Actually not to bad, really rugged for a work pant and best of all the uniform company washes them and replaces them as needed. I have my favorite flavor of Levi's I buy for weekends and dress up occasions!   Never knew I was being judged by other dudes on what my brand of jeans says about me.

i do know one thing, if someone approaches me in a bar and checks out how soft my hands are and what clothes I have on, I'm for sure going to have an opinion about them.  :-X.

    Wasn't this thread about the Bombi?

    I think so?   ???   :-\

    Ya, that's a bomber....  Not sure if it's a real picture or artist conception....

    It looks like a B-7 but Armand didn't have cutouts for wheels, that I know of. I'm reading the book right now by Roger Lacasse about J.A. Bombardier. He was quite the man. He overcame many obstacles with no help from the government up there. In fact, they were one of his obstacles.

    checking out guys hands to see how "soft" they are. Bragging about how little you pay for jeans and how dumb you are for buying new cloths. Complaining about people not deserving of wearing flannel shirts. This is maybe one of the most unintelligent , arrogant, insulting threads in recent history. We are all dumber for having read it.


    Yep, yet I couldn't stop until I got to the end. It turned stupid quickly.

    Looks like an artist conception of a Bombi to me, also. Definitely not a photo.

    Not that it matters, but my son is working on setting the steel framing on a new DTC store in Fargo. Never owned a pair, but know that guys that buy (and really work in them) the DTC jeans get them replaced if they rip, tear or wear through. So, it seems like a one time purchase.

    Get out your Googler's and do a little research. You are really buying a $20 pair of pants, and a $44.50 warranty. That's great that they will replace them if you damage them, but the only people I've ever seen wearing them are not working in them, therefore, I am not surprised by all of the new stores being built. Now whoever has a pair, post a pic of the manufacturer's label. Let's see what they are really made of, and better yet where? Bosscat, I'm just calling it as I see it, the cold hard honest brutal truth. Thanks for moving on. Did a quick search, and the DTC overpriced crap didn't make the top 5 in one poll, and completely missed the top 10 in the other.

    I'm independently wealthy. As such, I don't work. In fact I have never worked a day in my life. I don't even work on snowmobiles, much less ride them. I just buy them on the Internet and have my man restore them. I see them more as an investment really. Same as any Ferrari or run down city high rise. I take great pride in my butter soft hands. I get a manicure every Thursday. Can't stand it when my nails are dirty or mis-cut.

    Of course, people are jealous of my fame and money. To protect myself from unwanted attention, I dress head to toe in flannel and canvas pants. People never suspect that I own the mortgage they are paying. How dare you insult my wardrobe choice? I could buy and sell you just like your precious 'sleds' you seem to care so much about.

    I am in the same boat as you, except I have 2 Hot Ladies to restore my sleds!  ;D 8)

    Don't know anything about the pic. Don't know much about Duluth Trading........... except that one of their stores opened near Pittsburgh, PA over the summer. I actually went in last Friday. Looked around the store. Looked at their goods. Admired them. Looked at their prices. Walked out the way I came in....... empty handed!
    I am not completely insane.......
