Next best alternative to snickers trousers

[Harvest Fields]

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

Speaking of which. How are things?

Thanks for asking Wayne.

Hmm. It's early days so cannot be certain but it would appear the bloke is simply a rich control freak who spouts far more than he really knows or (touching wood & fingers crossed) can deliver.

We have had loads more threats about what he's going to do but as he threatens they seem to get increasingly desperate. The last one was him calling one of our manufactures and 'telling' them they should sue us for payment of an outstanding invoice. He pi55ed them off so much the MD immediately called me from holiday in the US to tell me he's deferring our debt till whenever I wanted in order to support TM rather than this clown. Clown shot both his own feet off with that single act.

Fact is we're simply getting on with growing the business. However, in the background we've now built the basis of a legal case against him ready to wheel it out as required.

My mojo is back and I'm no longer wandering around with that feeling of impending doom in the pit of my stomach 24/7. It's onwards & upwards

Just wanted to say thank you to EVERYONE on UKPF. The support we've received has been very humbling. It makes you realise that proper humanity is alive and kicking ar5e here...

Thank you.

I've tried a few different ones but the fit is never right. The hardest wearing were the scruffs but when you bent over the knee pads were completely in the wrong place.

So I'm back onto snickers but they dont seem to last as long as they used to.

When I first started out I shadowed a guy who was morbidly obese (although these days he is thin and one of those rare people to lose weight and keep it off for years) and I remember seeing him sweating and puffing and trying to squeeze under a kitchen sink and thinking "Jesus he is fat."

Then I noticed he had a Snickers belt. I'd never heard of the brand of tradesmen's work gear at that point. I honestly presumed he'd collected like 200 chocolate bar wrappers and sent off for a belt.

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.

Invested in Engelbert Strauss 2020 at beginning of year, great pants but not cheap, about £50/pr. (don't have holster pockets, but loads of others).

Got a couple of prs of these as well, they're good

Been wearing these for years now. Usually get 2 pairs at a time and last me a good 3 years till knees go through (Unless the tear on a protruding nail!)

When I realised I had no real need for extra pockets other than your standard two front and two back you get on all trousers and that my conditions for work very rarely involved building site/hazardours conditions requiring thick material protection I started just buying pairs of whatever fitted well and was comfortable (usually meaning softer, thinner and more flexible/stretchy than tradesemen trousers) that I could find for £20 at T K Maxx. Never going back to heavy, thick tradesemen's trousers again. They also fit better over trainers as I don't wear boots.

What about knee pads I couldn't work without knee pads or use those with a strap behind the knee.

Where do you put your gloves and keys?

 

[WaterTight]

Don't use kneepads, do have kneel mat but rarely use it for I am dumb/foolhardy.
Don't wear gloves. Keys go in my pocket. Of which my trouser have several fitted as standard.
