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 are still 7 loop.

And I'm with Rick. I wear the Wranglers because they LAST. I work everyday in my jeans and they just don't wear out. I have a buddy that has a pair that I ripped (pushed him off the tailgate) when I was 17. I am 23 now, and he was wearing them last time I saw him. Plus they fit right.

I would vote Wranglers for one reason. Levi's are very ANTI firearm friendly. Why should I give my money to someone who is against my rights????

Wrangler Pro Rodeo cut in the new relaxed fit models. Best thing out there for riding horsies all the time.

Wranglers....don't own anything else.

BTW, Begle is an anomaly, everybody else here in town wears Wranglers.

And I hate to break it to the rest of y'all, but the last couple pair of Wranglers I bought were assembled in Mexico with USA parts. I sent them a nasty e-mail and never got a response.

Come to think of it, my truck was assembled in Mexico with USA parts, so maybe that ain't such a bad thing......

Wranglers every day for me...I even have about 3 pair of Wrangler shorts I wear (only about 1 week out of the year, on vacation)

I've ripped pockets, torn holes, ate them with battery acid, and got them too filthy to clean, but never worn a pair out.

Levi's just don't fit this fat boys legs

I noticed that assembled in Mehico label myself. Does anyone make clothing in the US anymore. I think they have all went to the 1.25 an hour countries for their labor.

I voted for Wranglers........although I don't wear them anymore.......used to wear the silver buckle ones they had out and really liked them, but now they don't make them so I quit wearing wranglers all together. Plus I kinda like the room for my boys now that I quit wearing them!!! I can move around a lot easier without getting a gut ache..........

Wranglers...and occasionally Carhartts. I'm not sure I've ever even tried on a pair of Levi's.

Stranglers are for guys in cowboy hats with big belt buckles and spurs on their boots.
