The Big Bill pants?

Made in USA too.

Bruce Hering 11-12-2021 01:03 AM

Not in my size.... Oh well....

Destry L. Hoffard 11-13-2021 08:59 AM

Bruce,

If they're Big Bill as Brian suggests, you can order bigger sizes through the Big Bill Workwear website.

They also sell wool coats, chambray work shirts, and dandy flannel shirts. All made in either the USA or Canada.

Brian Dudley 11-13-2021 09:38 AM

Ok. So Canada is the other source? I saw that some items stated “imported”.

I will haunt Tractor Supply in the months to come as I get my weight under control.

Brian,

All the Big Bill (Codet) woolens I've ever seen were either USA or Canadian made. The actual Big Bill website usually lists exactly where their items are produced.

Yes. I was checking their (Big Bill) site out. I was meaning that Tractor Supplies site was listing some of the items as Imported.

Down here in South Georgia, there are only about 3 days out of the year that I can even wear wool.

Once again this site costs me $$$. Ordered a pair of the cargo pants to be delivered to my local store. I should have them Monday. I'll post a review after I have a couple of days to wear them.

Mine came in last week just in time for deer season. Can't tell them apart from my old Johnson Mills pants so they should last. Its seems that no matter what length you order they come long.

DLH: Smaller is what I need.... LOL which could change at any time...

Picked mine up this afternoon from the local TSC. Quality seems excellent. fit in the waist - spot on; rise is a little longer than I usually wear, but the crotch is just a little low; George is right about the length - a little long. Maybe if I hiked them up with suspenders.

Seems like wool pants come in two materials today: you can either read the paper through the weave, or impossibly heavy. Material used in these pants is tight, like a very heavy flannel, nice.

Label says made in Canada .

I ordered a pair of the cargo pants in the size that fits me perfectly in dress pants. Put them on , pulled them up and fastened them. Let go and they litteraly fell to the floor. They were about 3 inches too big in the waist and about the same amount too long. I checked all the tags and the invoice and they all had the proper size shown. I was going to return them, but the shipping invoice said to "return them to the vendo"r" or some such language. Ordered and paid for them through Tractor Supply, was told they would be shipped directly from the manufacturer, recieved the package from a "fullfillment center" in Tennessee with a shipping invoice from some third (fourth?) party entity. Have no idea where to return them. Pretty typical for Tractor Supply. In our area, their stores are 90% full of cowboy clothes and pet supplies. $80 shot.

I order a pair of the 8 pocket. They fit great, even have suspender buttons inside. Comments on the TSC website said no buttons. They are long, but only at the cuff. :rotf::rotf: Nice green color too. Will be donning them tomorrow.

Take ‘em to a tailor and have them cut down to fit?

Arthur Shaffer 12-07-2021 08:21 PM

That would have cost more than they were worth. They were literally too big in every dimension. I gave them to a church homeless outreach.
