Rarely wash my wranglers as they have soaked up a lot of horse sweat and smells great...makes me smell like a horse. Even my mare notices whether I wear my wranglers soaked in horse sweat or whether I am wearing a fresh washed pair of jeans. If its a fresh pair of jeans, I'm riding her bareback in the hot sun to break them making them soaking wet by her copious sweat. And there is that bareback riders pattern of sweat and dirt along the inside of one's leg and seat. Sometimes my wranglers can almost stand up by themselves. ?
