Pros
- +1 for Wrangler. They even get the nod in r/rawdenim, especially for big guys like yourself.
- Wrangler had been fine for me
- Wrangler for the win. Levis premium is at most 13.5 oz, but Wrangler consistently punches beyond 14.5 oz and occasionally are 15.25 oz for a few colors.
- Huckberry, Relwen, Wrangler (jeans/pants, western style shirts if you’re into that), Brooks Brothers can go both ways, Taylor Stitch are among some of the clothes that I own that go both ways.
- Parent context: So I’m in the Wrangler Camp. Love those jeans. You can get them raw. So I have found ways to keep them lasting longer. Even with heavy use. One. NEVER WASH THEM. This isn’t a joke. I’m serious. I’ll put them out in the...
Cons
- I bought three pairs of Wranglers about a year ago and two are holding up fine, but one is coming undone in the crotch.
- Sometimes I see the adverts and just think its a bunch of people playing dress up which I take issue with generally as it seems western wear is in style which leads to enshittification of the products I rely on. This includes Carhartt, W...
- Tried CK, Goodfellow, Wrangler, Mack Weldon and still not quite it.
- They're ruining Wrangler for short term gains. It's like the Ford Thunderbird all over again.
- right now I get the impression that lots of the weirdness in my Wrangler is due to the fact that it's run by different vendor's firmware made to cooperate by Stellantis instead of a cohesive stack.

Parent context: So I’m in the Wrangler Camp. Love those jeans. You can get them raw. So I have found ways to keep them lasting longer. Even with heavy use. One. NEVER WASH THEM. This isn’t a joke. I’m serious. I’ll put them out in the sun, I’ll steam them. Stuff like that. If you absolutely must wash them, handwashing, hang dry. Also, buy two at once alternate them every other day. They will last three times … Reply: Thai sounds like a response I'd have made, except I won't bake them in sunlight during the summer. I live in Texas, and that's asking for trouble.
I have two cars, one of which is an older lifted 6 speed wrangler thats just fun to drive and take the top off in the summer.
