Yeah Levi's are dropping off my list also, I wear Carpenter Jeans most of the time around the house, and have decided that I like the Wranglers better now, after the last 2 pair of Levi's I ordered... Boot cuts, I have been wearing Wranglers for years (The wife says Wrangler butts drive her nuts
) Levi's 501 were my goto until about 2002, I kept noting they seemed thinner..
I am seriously thinking of trying the Duluth Trading Co. Firehose Jeans next just to see..
supposedly they are still US made..
