In this video I’m putting my work pants through a real mechanic abuse test—because that’s exactly what I do every day in my shop. I’m Brian Essick from How to Automotive, and I’ve been wearing the Milwaukee Super Rugged Flexion Work Pants (M650G) every single day for over a year (closer to a year and a half). I don’t have a hoist, so I’m constantly on my knees on concrete, crawling under cars and trucks, and laying on my back doing repairs. I show you my worn pair next to a brand-new pair with the tags still on so you can see the difference for yourself. The big takeaway is durability: after more than 100 washes and daily use, these pants have held up incredibly well—no rips, no tears, no flaring at the heels, and only minor fading. I also point out the stitching (double/triple stitched where it matters), the flex in the crotch area for working positions, and the pocket layout that’s actually usable for tools. One thing that surprised me is how well they resist stains—considering how much diesel oil, fuel, grease, and grime I’ve gotten on them, they don’t retain stains like most work pants do. This isn’t a fashion review; it’s a real-world report from the shop floor.
