They used to be pretty durable, but quality fell off, so I stopped buying them. It may be time to start patronizing them again!

Their products are admittedly shit but I'll buy it anyways based on what state a building is in

[–] Bustedknuckles 3 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Yup. Gives me hope they'll stop being shit

You could wait and see if they stop being shit instead of rewarding the megacorp with money because you like their HQ

Dungarees are hit and miss now, but I just return them if the cut is wrong. The durable fabric is back. It's like 80% acceptable.

I still have 2015 work shirts that are hanging tough, but the set of 2019 shirts are all gone.

The acquisition hurt quality, I'm just glad I can buy durable pants from them again.

I’ve heard the stuff at Walmart is lower quality than the original.
