Double Front Duck Work Pants

Duck work pants with a double front, which means a second layer of fabric across the thigh and knee where the wear happens.

That extra layer is the whole point. On a pair of trousers, the knee goes first and everything else is still fine when it does, so doubling the fabric there roughly doubles the working life. It also gives some protection when you are kneeling on gravel or concrete. Duck is the base fabric, which is already the most abrasion resistant thing in a workwear range, and this is the reinforced version of it. Black and bark are the colours.

They feel heavier than ordinary work trousers because they are, and that is what you are paying for. Take your usual waist. For anyone kneeling daily, a double front pair outlasts two ordinary ones.
