Man I hear you. I can only buy certain brands of boxer shorts because my waist isn't THAT big, but my thighs ARE. My legs are from hiking/biking and weight lifting though. They used to sell "Wide Leg Jeans" when I was in junior high. I loved those things...then they gor ridiculous. It started off with a boot cut... went to the sweet spot somewhere in between, and then ended up in parachutes attached to your arse.Big B wrote:how tight do draggin jeans fit? i ask because i'm a larger man (6'3 285, 38"waist) but as a cross country skiier and a swimmer, my thighs are ridiculous (34") and i have to buy real baggy jeans for them to fit right.
I do however know that the First Gear HT Mesh Overpants are *awesome* and the liner they comes with REALLY works. I was in downpour conditions with them in the rain and I was warm and dry. And still pretty comfy. Though the liners do take a few minutes to get used to.

From what ive read, Draggin' Jeans have split into two companies now. The Co-founders were friends or something liek that, one moved to australia... and the other in the states passed on recently. The surviving co-founder claims that the company started to cut back on the kevlar content in the pants, to save costs on production. So the surviving family members, and the co-founder agreed that he could start a sister company under a slightly altered name.
With that said, I'd buy from either company... But unfortunatly the product I want, they only make in AUS, camo combat cargo pants.
All I want are some pants, a decent pair of pants!!!

Why not ask someone from down there to purchase and ship you the pants? I do stuff like that for guys in England all the time, usually for the price of a case of beer. There are tons of folks here from that special containment continent.

I have guys in Spain, UK and NZ I can hook up with, I am connected to US and JPN, so, networking helps move the product.
