Another UK question

[NancyMan]

I have both. By far I prefer the Survival. The Workman's is bad *** and edgy, but the pleats curl like the dickens, the back pockets are too tight to be usable and after countless washings it is still stiff and, though not uncomfortable, not comfy. In comparison, all of the Survivals pockets are usable, the pleats are the most well behaved of my 5 UKs, and the material feels really nice against my skin.

I personally prefer the workmans when I'm actually working (I'm a professional cinematographer/gaffer - though I admit I was working on a TV show last week and wore a Survival one day, and an original corduroy the next since it was so cold - 3F and shooting exteriors). For day to day wear I am usually in my denim or one of my two cords (Brown test model and blue production model - which I had planned on dying black, but the blue has grown on me, it's nice to have a UK that is not in an earth tone).

As for the pockets being interchanbeable, on the workmans they are not, but you could remove them and add snaps yourself if so motivated.
