So what are you doing for blue jeans? Looking for ones that don't rip!

Just ripped another pair of rual king jeans. Anybody got recommendations for anything more cost effective than RK jeans? 6 pairs seem to last me 2½ months.

Where are they ripping? Splitting the seam, catching them on sharp objects?

Mostly just ripping right next to seams or getting holes at the corners of pockets.

Carhart, Key are good.
These are tough as they come.

In my experience, Prison Blues never stop shrinking. Wild Ass jeans from Baileys are my go-to. It took me a lot longer to wear out a set of Wild Ass jeans than it did a set of Carhartts. All the Carhartts I had started getting random, small holes so I stopped getting them.

For work I quit wearing jeans
Switched to work pants as they outlast any jeans I used to wear
Way more comfortable for work as well.
A friend of mine gave me the tip over 20 years ago.

Wrangler from Walmart. Buy several pair every fall and the old ones go to work pants. I’ve torn them, but never had them split. I wear them six days a week and the new ones on Sunday. Relaxed fit of course. Some are 8-10 years old.
