Comparing them they both have the same stapled-on labels, the same sewn in model number labels and the model numbers are exactly the same, just the size is marked differently. But interestingly I noticed that the seams are done differently between the two. I've never really paid attention to the seams. I did a little browsing about seams and learned that the two types of seams on jeans appear to be a french seam where you don't see the stitching and a flat fell seam where you do see at least two lines of stitches. On one pair of jeans the french seam is on the outside of the legs and the flat fell seam is on the inseam. On the other pair of jeans the flat fell seam is on the outside and the french seam is on the inside. Same Wrangler model number, just different size.
I think I don't really have a preference one way or the other but looking at the causal pants that I have I see it tends to be that the heavier duty (Dickies for example) pants put the flat fell on the outside of the leg.
