Strange question but where do you jodhpurs / breeches wear out first?

Normally near my foof! But I think thats cos I always have them pulled quite tight over my butt cos I fold them over at the top. Its normally the stitching that goes!
 
Always halfway up my left thigh! How wierd is that! Keep looking for something sticking out of my leg/saddles there, but nothing! If not, stitching on seam between legs!
 
around the knee patches, i tend to use the seam to pull them on and end up putting a nail though them
 
Mine never seem to wear out normally! They usually gets massive holes from climbing barb wire, getting stuck on gate etc .With cream ones they get huge hoof oil stains that never come out! Wish i was more careful with my jods!
 
Anywhere that shows the maximum amount of faded pants- always helpfully pointed out to me. I just tell people not to look!

I nearly always get mine wearing out on the top of my right thigh - its where I always ride with my schooling whip down my leg, and it rubs the material so that it wears out. Although I have brought a couple of pairs of cheapy jods in Tesco, and they don't seem to be doing the same thing - which is great! Cheapy jods is the way forward!!:) :)
 
on the bum and knees lol i have had a hole in one pair from a certain dog who likes to mess around but it was only small and i sewed it up and i always get oil from the stupid tow bar thingy on my cream ones :(
 
everywhere, there seems to be no rhyme nor reason to the wearing out, but they all do after alarmingly short time. Until falling apart, i'll still wear them!
 
Another foof wearer out here :D

And, sorry to have an age-related moan, but I still have a pair of jods I have owned at least 10 years, which are still intact if bobbly - and they were 3rd hand when I got them! :o I am therefore shocked everytime a pair I bought myself goes - cheap or expensive, it seems they don't make 'em like they used to!
