These Ariat jeans are great for all kinds of work and casual activities. When putting them on, just step in and zip up as you would with any regular jeans. Since they have a slim fit, make sure to choose the right size for a comfortable fit. For maintenance, you can machine - wash them in cold water to keep the color and fabric quality. Avoid using harsh detergents as they might damage the fabric. Hang them to dry instead of using a dryer to prevent shrinkage. When wearing them, the knife pocket can be used to store small tools, but be careful not to damage the fabric. The heavy - duty zippers and hardware are strong, but still handle them gently to make them last longer.
