Only noticed after I was starting to patch the knees (I glue them on then sew) , but a butt patch is less acceptable. Four knee patches wasted.

It’s why I learned using a sewing machine: put a soft patch on it on the inside, then sew over it like crazy. Well, there’s techniques but for my sewing averse mind this works well enough.
edit: oh, it’s carhartt. I used to have a pair of their pants that lasted over 10 years. Then I bought an almost identical pair which lasted only 1 year. Same area iirc. Of course that can be ascribed to my thighs getting thicker as well, but not completely.
