durable hiking/working pants (feddit.dk)

I work in a store where I walk a lot and make many heavy lifts on a daily basis. And normally i just use regular cheap jeans, but they only last some months before they rip on the inner tights.

So I'm looking for some durable pants that handle friction and sweat in the inner thigh. I was looking at Fjällräven but I have heard they are not that good compared to price anymore. So any recommendations on EU or preferably Scandinavian brands?

That Finnish jeans brand everybody is talking about?

Lots of posing with machine guns and confederate flag tattoos going on there for a European company. I guess they know their audience, but gosh what a turn-off.

Saw military gear, but confederate flags?

It's on the elbow of the guy posing with a cigar and a handgun wearing sunglasses indoors in a pub, next to a bartender who is poking himself with a knife.

It'd be a decent parody of toxic masculinity if it wasn't for the fact that this guy has, in fact, tattooed a confederate flag on his body. So I'm worried they might be serious, which makes me question a number of things.

(more on topic, I'd probably just get a pair of Fjällräven Keb Agile, but I know OP wants to explore other options)
