Quality and durability issues with Standard Issue sweatpants
Quality of course could always be an issue, where basic use is causing these cheap- mass produced polycotton pieces to tear at each hem. They definitely don’t look well made. But considering the tear location it looks like they don’t really fit you either and it’s tearing at seams which were being strained.
