A place to share practical, durable and quality made products that are made to last, with an emphasis on upcycled and sustainable products!
Guidelines:
Things that are well-made and durable (even if they won't last a lifetime) are A-Okay!
Unlike that other BIFL place, Home-made and DIY items are encouraged here, as long as some form of instruction is included in the body of the post.
Videos links are not allowed as post titles, but you may use them in a text post.
A limited amount of self-promotion is accepted, IF the item you are selling aligns with this criteria:
- The item must be made with sustainable or recycled materials.
- If electronic in some way, the item must be open-source.
- The item must be user-serviceable (if applicable).
- You cannot be a large corporation.
- The post must be clearly marked with a [Self Promotion] tag in your title.

Dickies makes good pants. I don't know if you'll be able to find actual BIFL pants.
I'll second the Dickies. I used to wear Carhartt's for work because they held up well. But lately they haven't. The Dickies I'm currently rocking at work have so far held up really well, although I did just switch like 6 months ago. For what it's worth, my poor, carpenter grandfather wore Dickies everything. Exclusively.
