Here's a random question:
What is the best clothing to wear in a metalworking shop?
Durability, fit, price, etc.
I can't wear denim to work....(crazy dress code) but would like to not
burn through 4 more pairs of pants this year.
Thanks,
ktow

Go to Goodwill (or local equivalent) and look for work pants in your size that are presentable.
Someting mostly cotton in a fairly tight weave would probably be most durable.
IF the dress code makes somehting a little faded a problem, use RIT dye to make it look better, Just follow the instructions carefully.
