snickers appears to be the trouser of choice, but way too expensive for me.

I get helly hansen http://www.hellyhansen-workwear.com/buy ... trouser/0/


I go to a shop, so this website is only to show you the type of trouser. The shop I go to in stockport normally do me 4 for £100..........as i get my embroidered tee shirts and fleece from them as well.

I would think you need to go and try them first, so go to a shop, then get online if you want to save, and can wait

ok cool, anyone tried the dewalt or makita stuff? do they last longer than the sort of jeans you buy at asda? do they resist tearing relatively well?

Scruff's and Dicky's are good :thumbright:

Scruff's will give you a good discount online as well.
