    You can still get carpenter jeans if you need them, actually they are most commonly sold at industrial painting retailers. They are usually white because someone thought it was a good idea to make painters jeans white, lol.

      If I were to guess, I’d say that there’s no color you could dye painter’s clothes that wouldn’t get ruined by paint, so it’s more cost effective to just leave them cotton white.
