Is there anything that the workman's is better than at then the Original or does it just have more pockets/straps? Has anyone ever worn one and gotten that's a skirt not a kilt comments?
The segmented pockets are precicely why I prefer the workman's model. I find that when I have my original pockets (or mocker pockets for that matter) loaded I tend to spend time diging for what I want. In the workman's everything is nicely in it's own compartment.

As for durability, the only problem I have had with either is I have one tiny hole in one pocket of my first original (4 years old) that happened when I put an uncapped pen in the pocket and being so overloaded it poked through. The hole has not gotten bigger from wear or washing.

The workman's does have a little of the macho factor going.

However, I love my PK lined black denim too, and plan on getting another (blue) soon.
