Dickies Mens Original 874 Work Pant

My first pair of Dickies 874 khaki work pants was purchased approximately 40 years ago when I wore 30Wx32L sizes. Since then I have gained weight and am now 80 years old but still highly active. Current sizes have migrated into sizes 36Wx34L from 34Wx34L and 32Wx34L, but the 874's remain my favorite choice. When new, they can be worn with a dress shirt and blazer or sport coat. As they wear, they become strictly work pants in my profession of land surveying. Durable. Dependable. Reliable. Easy care (I do my own washing/ironing.)

Waist size is a hit and miss, I'm a size 38 and there are times when the pant is labeled 38 but fits like a 36 I am not sure if they are being miss labeled at the factory or some other problem. I do think quality control needs to look into this because I have read several reviews of the same complaints. Other than sizing issues these pants wear well and are comfortable.
