Next best alternative to snickers trousers

[Sharp Point]

Evening all,

Sorry if it’s an age all question..... but the price of black canvas holster snickers are getting stupid. Yes, I have bought others brands in the past, but the fitment is perfect and allow for good positioning, also good mobility.

None. Wait for them to be on offer.

Being a Yorkshire man , I dont care how well they fit I aint paying anywhere near that for a pair of kecks .

They last years if you look after them.

I go through two pairs a year, but I do a lot of installing and on my knees a lot.... that what goes first, the knees.

TBH I started off with snickers but quickly moved away when they badly shrank.

Turns out the labels display wash temp in Fahrenheit not centigrade - wtf! Took months to get new ones out of em but never an apology.

Moved away to £15 a pair jobs. Although not as 'nice', I could buy 4 pairs for one snickers so a no brainer.

In those days Ben my age was less than my waist measurement

 

[Ben-gee]

Yes it’s a sad day when they switch over, mind you at 46 years old I’m glad my age is larger than my waist - the few contemporaries of mine for whom this is not the case don’t look good!

Best I stay off your immediate radar then ... Stress doesn't do the waistline much good I can assure you
