carpenter jeans like ben davis
looking for some recommendations for carpenter jeans in a medium washed indigo. I really liked Ben Davis's (https://bendavis.com/collections/carpenter-pants/products/carpenter-pants-washed-indigo-denim?variant=43347949650083) but I need jeans in 34 length and unfortunately their smallest waist size (32w) is still too big for me and the fit I'm looking for. they've confirmed that they won't be making 30x34 or 31x34 any more.
what i'm looking for:
- high waisted
- straight legged
- no double knees
- heavyweight (at least 14oz)
- solid medium wash, no fades and preferably no contrast stitching
- true waist size of 32 and length of 33 or 34
- 100% cotton (no polyester)
- budget $50-70
brands/models I've looked at:
- carhartt - seems like they only have this loose utility cut and they're just ugly: https://www.carhartt.com/product/104941/loose-fit-utility-jean
- dickies heavyweight carpenters - closest to what i"m looking for but I wish they were a little higher waisted and didn't have the light contrast stitching: https://www.dickies.com/jeans/relaxed-fit-heavyweight-carpenter-jeans/1993.html?dwvar_1993_color=RNB#start=1
- red kap - wash just isn't really what i'm looking for: https://www.redkap.com/mens-loose-fit%C2%A0dungaree/PD80.html?dwvar_PD80_color=prewashedIndigo&cgid=men-jeans
- duluth trading - everything has stretch and is ugly
- wrangler - ugly details, too much like actual workwear: https://www.wrangler.com/shop/wrangler-riggs-workwear-carpenter-3W020.html
- ll bean - nothing in medium wash or without double knees.

LC king has some but I don’t think they are heavy weight. You’ll probably have to find a specialty denim brand to find heavy weight because it’s not super common in “regular” brands
