I Like to Wear Jeans

I was reading lately an article about Denim Crotch Blowout, some people seem to find that in jeans that they have worn only a few months have excessive wear in the crotch, some say that cycling can be quite a contributary factor where some think sitting at a desk can also be, where the friction of your legs can cause it also, personally i have never found this a problem recently but again i do not keep my jeans all that long i sell mine on before they get that way, when i was younger and had less cash i did find that after a while i did experience wear in the crotch.

I think that it also depends upon the quality of the denim used as some are treated and washed for softness, hence the reduced life cycle. I haven't had an issue with he crotch blowing out save for one pair of light jeans. They were summer weight and the fabric just appeared to weaken. I also do rotate jeans and don't wear the same pair all the time, as that can contribute to the problem as it does with chinos. Most guys don't want break in times and eschew the raw or rigid jeans in favor of those that approach the comfort of sweatpants when fort purchased, which can also contribute to the propensity for failure when worn in other environments that stress the fabric n
