Crotch blow out....

I got rid of all my random jeans and bought multiple pairs of these. Highly recommend.
Brother got married this weekend and I hadn't worn a pair a tailored dress pants in a while. Made my son put on and tie my shoes because I couldn't risk bending over.
I should have added that I am not poor.
You buy the pricey distressed jeans with the frilly **** on the back pockets?
I USED to be in the same boat. Their products seem to have been cheapened recently, and their warranty is now garbage as well. Had a front button on a pair pop loose - figured they were Duluth so I would just go in and have them fixed or exchanged. Nope...14 months old, only a 12 month warranty. Never again.I use these for "work" pants. They are the best around and have an extra gusset built in.

I have been a long time customer and advocate for paying a little extra, but it is no longer worth it to me. They carry a hefty premium price tag that they no longer justify.
Story time:
Years ago I worked at Hilton Coliseum on the tech crew. While working one time I snagged my jeans on something and tore a big old hole in the crotch of one pair of jeans. As I was a poor college student I continued to wear these jeans to work because it was after all just work.
Well one night ISU MBB was playing Kansas on Big Monday and we had a shot clock issue. So they stopped the game and went to timeout. During the timeout me and another guy climbed up the stanchion and were above the basket trying to change out the malfunctioning clock that was stuck in the frame. The clock wasn't budging and we were still up there working when they came back from commercial so they had the hand held camera right under the basket shooting right up at us. We finally got the old clock out and the spare in its place and wired. After we got done the phone in the broom closet started ringing with old crew guys from out of town saying they saw our close up cameo on national TV. That is when I panicked remembering my torn pants that I had put on to wear to the game. After about 3 seconds of terror I then realized that I had actually put them on then changed into another pair since it was a game night. My balls were just about famous that night.

Oooo, is that like one of those pocket things I've heard about on late night tv commercials?
Yes happens to me too. I'm a carpenter though, so I'm squatting and on my knees often. I only wear gusseted pants too.
I had the same issue with Express jeans. Tried a different brand, about the same fit and style and the same thing happened. I think for me it’s that the current style is less baggy, more fitted and I’ve gained a few pounds. They are still comfortable and look good but it’s tight enough in places that cause wear more quickly. I’m not talking skinny jeans, just not baggy.
I haven't had to buy any new ones in quite awhile, so you could be right. I've only ever had one pair fail on me and it was due to a roofing a house that had two layers of asphalt shingles and a layer of cedar shakes on it. The amount of nails during tear off was absolutely insane.
The other stuff I've bought since has been really hit or miss. The button ups/flannels have been awesome. The Alaskan Hard Gear Ts got returned after one wash. The AKHG zip up hoodie I got was trash also.
Also to the OP, these are making a comeback. They should solve your issue.
