and it isn't from having sex.
To move means to wear out pants. This is annoying.
i think the main thing to focus on... is where
they are wearing out (i.e. -- on the pants)...
its a good clue as to what actions need to be taken
buy better quality ones.
my mum and i have this debate all the time about spending money on intimate apparel. i think it's worth it to pay for the more expensive stuff because it's better quality and it makes you (the wearer) feel good about yourself. my mother thinks it's all bah! she says no one sees it (except for the privaleged) so it doesn't matter what you wear underneath. to that i say bah!
i agree, SF... in regards to undies... its best
to get better quality stuff....
ESPECIALLY when it concerns bras..... [img]redface.gif[/img]
I have found that "quality" does not always mean "brand", especially when it comes to Victoria's Secret, by the way. Vickie's has ONE, repeat, ONE bra shape in different sizes. This is something I've come to realize over the years. My roommate and I are of similar size, but not shape. When we wear the Vickie's bras, we end up as the exact same shape and size. It's like a braces smile. You can always tell when someone has had braces because their smile is the same as every other braces smile in the world.
Fight the comformity! Find bras that conform to YOU!!

Both thighs, the right thigh up to the pocket.

i find that fascinating....
at the moment, i cannot think of anything that
pops out of my mind as to the cause of it.
for me... my knees tend to give first... but that
is because i play with my dog alot on the floor
and blah blah blah....
hmmm... will think on it
oh no! i am a dil-do!
i COMPLETELY misread the original post as to meaning underwear wearing out. i didn't realise it was tailored pants. so i was reading the descriptions of the wear with a [img]confused.gif[/img] because of the thigh to pocket description...
perhaps you are squatting a lot, which makes the pants build up tension in the thigh and knee area, making them worn. or perhaps, you support heavy objects on your knees (such as when you're moving them about) which will also make your pants wear out around that area.
and bras are like cosmetics, some people say there is no difference between the expensive ones and the cheap ones.
...but we know better.
i think most brands have just one shaped cup. the normal 'perfect shaped' one or the maternity one. tough ******* .
and that last word,
ti-tties

Well, I am on sensory overload. There is just too much good material to assimilate. (sound of circuits buzzing and burning)
I think Soulfilms is right. I do move around my video camera and tripod quite a bit...and the two together probably weigh 30-40 pounds.

there was a time when you thought otherwise, i believe it had something to do with... .... .. ... "jean shorts" ....? [img]tongue.gif[/img]
There is a way to fix it, but it requires extra effort. I don't usually do it beacue I beat the **** out of my clothes anyway so it will not help.
Most cloth/sewing stores sell an iron-on patch thing that you can put on the inside. That helps to reduce the stress somewhat and increases the life of the material.
Wasn't that the "tighty whitey's" era?
ahhhh.... good suggestion, beta.
but another observation....
mens clothing holds up way longer than womens...
prolly cuz companies know women prefer to spend
money on clothing... so they do them a favor and
make them last a few washings.
i've noticed this is especially true of denim... [img]mad.gif[/img]
denim is a most durable material!
it all depends on what you do with them.
when i was in primary school, it didn't matter what i did, i could never make a hole or something in my sneakers (so i'd get new ones). i had to outgrow them to get new ones.
I love the smell of denim in the morning! [img]tongue.gif[/img]
when i made my post about denim, it was in comparison
between (more specifically) mens jeans and womens jeans.
the past 2 years i have conducted a series of
tests between various materials and how they
withstood day-to-day wear in accordance to male/female.
one notation:
mens levis withstood more wear than womens
womens khakis withstood more wear than mens
