Check out "Prison Blues" brand jeans, made on the inside to be worn on the outside. Good quality product.
And available at ALL D.M.V.s nationwide.
(...where you can ALSO pick up your license plates at the same time, right Ryk?!)

I wear Lucky Brand jeans - they have a line that is specifically made in America, too. I believe I've also seen some button flys. While many of their jeans are "pre-distressed" they do have some plain dark denim.
Check these out: LuckyJeans-American-Made
For riding, I prefer armored pants.
The problem with these is they cost $148! And they're skinny jeans! Nothing looks stupider than a grown man in skinny jeans!

It's all about choice, slave labor in China or prison labor in the USA.

I never understood why anyone would like a button fly, when you really have to pee it takes too long to unbutton!
Obviously you've NEVER been in a frantic rush to zip them up, and have an "Oh-oh" moment! (Followed by screaming "F#################%@", loud enough to be heard miles away)  You'll NEVER wear a zippered pant again!
Actually, in the 70s I had a pair of shorts with no button or snap at the top and a big ring on the zipper. Well the very tip got caught in the zipper enough to bleed and later scar. I mean the very tip too! So bad I had to call someone over to help me get it back out of the zipper. Still can't see why anyone would want a button fly.

They can post anything the want for MSRP. They actually cost about $50 or less in the stores I shop in. But more importantly, skinny jeans, really?!
Let me help you out here.

Lucky's "Slim" ain't the same thing by a long shot man. And they do make more "husky" styles.

My memory is going, but Isn't Lucky Jeans the company that did the cool Triumph tees? 
I guess I'm not as senile as I thought, found this.

While I'm all for inmates working for their keep there are so many things crooked about "for profit" prisons I just don't think I could support them.
In AZ the advent of for profit prisons has led to much longer sentences being doled out by elected judges whose biggest contributors were...you guessed it...the for profit prisons they help keep filled.
That's down right scary.
Watch your back, Dwight.
I sure do understand the concern Chet. Some oversight is definitely warranted. On the other hand, I'm all for criminals paying restitution and inmates earning some of their own keep.

I do not know a lot about it as have never been a guest in the "Joint" but Prison Blues are made in good old liberal Oregon, and as I understand, the convicts get a little of the money and the rest goes to victim restitution and child support. All I'm actually sure about, is they are decent quality jeans at a fair price.

Privatized prisons are a scary scenario, imagine that somebody loses money for granting a parole, good behavior, who cares, we are losing money letting you out, scary! Barbara B. is heavily invested as I have learned.
