Strength
- Reinforced belt loops sewn beneath waistband with fabric washers behind every stitch
- Double-lined rear pockets reduce pliers poke-through
- Pointed rear pockets call back to old-school Carhartt
- Return of leatherette patch and lazy duck stitch detail on some models
- New 12oz denim - 70% cotton, 29% polyester, 1% spandex stretch
- Updated modern fits (loose straight, relaxed boot cut, slim straight) without going extreme
- Color-coded tags by fit for easier in-store shopping
- Flatfelled seams are very strong
- Comfortable, look good, more modern washes
Weakness
- Lost triple stitching on outseam (now double-stitched flatfeld)
- Less durable than 15oz crafted line or older 100% cotton models
- Not the right pick if maximum durability is the priority
