(Solved) Work Jeans/Pants With Strong Pockets.

I've been looking for a good pair of work jeans/pants with good front pockets. The first things to go on my jeans are always the pockets or the bottom of the legs, and everything else is normally fine. I'm not much of a fashion or clothes guy so i have no idea where to look if there's just a place that details all of this stuff, so if you know of a place that does that please let me know. I think the only things i need out of them past good pockets is probably a somewhat baggy fit because i MTB and do work that requires i squat and move my legs a lot, and good side pockets for tools or my phone. Bonus points if they have double layered knees 'cause that's really nice for moving hay. I know there's a lot i probably don't know, so any general advice is totally cool too.

have you tried the Carhartt double knees before?

like the pocket bags on your pants gets holes or wear out? no need to buy all new pants in that case - just take em to your tailor and they can sew up a hole or even replace the entire bag

That's what i currently wear, though they are too small for me 'cause i just didn't feel like getting new ones until now. Also don't they have multiple types of those? Not sure if we have any here, but that'd be great. Do you know if you can get heavier duty ones? Also i'm guessing that costs like twenty dollars or more, so it'd be worth it to only do that one nicer pants or shorts.

my tailor only charges ~$5 for a small hole repair. to get a whole bag put in? not sure but shouldn't be too too pricey I don't think it's only worth it to do on nicer pants. If you have a perfectly good pair of jeans but there's a tear in the pocket bag, it makes much more sense to pay $20 to get a new pocket bag than to pay $50 for more jeans

Well i assumed it was probably more money. I'll look into it, but i do need new shorts and pants so knowing of one that wouldn't need those replaced too soon would be good. We're going to check out what they have at one of the North 40s we have around here to get some new clothes, and i'll probably get some Carhartt stuff if nobody has a better idea. Thank you for telling me about that though. I was not aware that you could just get that done. (Edit was to remove and extra word i added accidentally.) I decided to go with Carhart again and they've even made the side pockets bigger which is really nice.
