Dickies Original Fit 874 Work Pants (Size 28 - 40)

Excellent work pants. Have been using them for over 50 years, but with larger waists :-) as the years go on. Will buy nothing else. But not happy with the front pockets being much shorter,the past few years, not deep enough, like the original models were. So bring back the original deep pockets. Another complaint, bring back the expansion waist Dart at the back of the waistband. That gave us a bit more room, when cut open, when not quite ready to go to the next size of pant. The tough cotton material has saved me many a cut or bruise on the thighs and legs over the years. Wife has had to Iron tough patches on the knees, cause the rest of the pant still had lots of life left. If you bring back the things you changed the past few years they would be perfect, again.

I'm a female with very long legs, and I have never been able to find women's pants long enough to fit my leg length. As a teenager, I turned to men's jeans to get the perfect fit (both waist and leg length). When I needed dress casual pants for a new job, I tried the Dickie work pants with a blouse & jacket and no one noticed that they were men's work pants. I then ordered: grey, khaki, black, & navy blue). In a pinch, I wore the black Dickies work pants with a feminine sweater, and attended a 'dressier' event (and got away with it!). Ever since, I have worn black Original 874 Dickie work pants as black dress pants whenever I need to dress up. And no one is the wiser.
