Workwear trousers recommendations

[CCTiling]

Hi,
Been buying snickers 3223 trousers for some time now but been finding the knee material goes fairly quick.
Can anyone recommend any other trousers that may be better?

For me, always dickies eisenhower but I wear external knee pads so no knee wear

Same as you Andy Dickies Eisenhower

I worked on my knees a few months in 1986.
since then, only knee pads or elastic bands.

I wear snickers duratwill. Don't know what the number is I just wear them until they go through then get another pair . I would like to buy cheaper but nothing fits me as well

Up until Sunday never really used knee pads in 45 years!
Bought a pair of gel ones from Lidl for £4.99.
Wearing one as I type.
Don’t know how it happened but right knee is tender and black/blue down leg.
It almost matches the geometric floor I’am on!
Never too old to try something new.
Oh - I wear Asda jeans at £6 a pair.

I gave up on the snickers as they were getting too expensive. I now use the Dewalt equivalent of the Duratwill snickers.

Knee pads, the cheap foam type as I don’t tend to kneel, I go cross legged instead

I wear scruffs from screwfix, find they last a long time. I usually got knee pad inserts in all the time and when doing floors I take them out and wear fentos

Helly Hansen 'Chelsea' construction trousers for me. Material on the knee is 3 layers thick and hard wearing. I use the HH supplied kneepads most of the time, redbacks when its a large floor.

 

[Blunt Tool]

Snickers flexiwork for me very comfortable and the flex knee pad inserts

The new floor layers have a kind of elastic crimpolene knee material and mine have lasted brilliantly so far approx 8 months. No holes. Plus they're very light and comfy compared to the old floor layers.
Downside, the pockets tear easily and they're a bit 'spensive.

Thanks for all the replies! I will go through all the options

Had them 6 months and so far so good, all the seams are holding up and you get 10% off if you have a trade card thingy.

@widler - looked at their web page - not very PC.

Wonder if they do other ethnic styles?
