Yeah I found that with the swrve cordura trousers. No gaping holes though which is nice. My attempts to re-dye them have all turned out terribly as there doesn’t seem to be enough cotton / natural fibres in them for the dye to take.
I bought some swrve mid-weight wwr trousers which have been great so far. No colour fading, stretch so don’t restrict movement, and dry really fast which is a bonus

The original 2011 commuters lasted me around 5 years, the later redesigned ones lasted less than a year. I think as mentioned earlier they were actually too good a product and Levis stopped it.
Have a pair of the SWRVE cordura jeans and they have held up, but they look terrible because the dye has worn away even though the fabric is still fine.
