Levi's or Wrangler?

Yeah, just the two options. I wear Wranglers, but my heros have always been cowboys, in old faded Levi's

I guess cowboys must have skinny little legs. I have never been able to find a pair of Levi's that I could pull on higher than about mid thigh. Wrangler's for me.

How did you know? I'm fixing to run to the dump to haul off the brush that was out behind our new house, and then I have two little jobs this afternoon... Not much for now though.

And when I was moving I found an old Texas Monthly under the bed, in it there was a Wrangler vs. Levis article in it.

I just did the dump thing myself this past weekend. I gotta clean the mud off the truck one of these nights. Have a good day. I gotta go ready for work myself.

Wranglers here.

I won't buy Levi. They support anti- Second Amendment groups.

I'm an old man. I grew up on a ranch wearing Levi's and have never bought anything else, although I don't fit into the 501's any more.

I've had some Levi's, but I prefer Wranglers, my legs dont fit into Levi's very good.

I wish the jeans makers would go back to the 7 belt-loop design. They have all gone to only 5 loops which aren't enough to get the job done. Cell phone holsters & other belt-attached tools don't stay in their proper place with only 5 loops. Lately, I've bought the Kirkland (by Costco) only because they have 7 belt loops. Kirkland jeans sell for about 12 bucks so if I mess them up, I don't get as upset as when I mess up the $29 Levis.

Wranglers fit me better. I don't like my jeans to look baggy or loose. I like them to fit not snug but not real loose either. Plus I have wranglers that I have worked in for years and still ain't wore em out.

Levi's all the way.

I can't fit my legs all the way into 501's because, well, I'm a stud. I wear the 550 "student-cut" because they're wide enough for my legs, and plenty comfortable.

My problem with Wrangler's, which I'm surprised hasn't been mentioned, is that whenever I sit down there isn't enough fabric to fold around the, err, bylitvio. They kind of pinch...
