Dickies Men's 874 Flex Work Pant

I've been wearing different brands of work pants for the past 29 years. being an auto mechanic i have worn various brands mainly from the different Uniform suppliers. G&K, Unifirst, Cintas. All are si miller in style and all fit inconsistently. Dickies once you know the sizing I have found to be extremely consistent. Dickies also have the best fit, not too loose and not too tight. Just enough room in the legs and thighs to make all day comfort in a variety of situations be it sitting, standing, bending or squatting. A few year back i picked up my first pair of Dickies, the original 874. The original is a bit heftier in material that the uniform company ones. The key to the original to get them soft and wearable right away is to soak them in a bucket of salt water for 24 to 48 hours and then give them a wash or two.It is equivilent to about 20 washes which is basically what it takes otherwise to have the Original soft. With the Flex 874 they feel weight wise somewhere between the thinner Un iform company style Red Kap, etc) and the Original 874. They feel like the original at about twenty washed, nice and soft right off the shelf. Flex is just right for this style as any more and you would probably be looking and feeling like you were wearing athleisure stretch pants. The Flex maintains the exact look of the Original and you absolutely can't tell the difference by looks. The difference comes in comfort level. these are so much better than the original and that is saying a lot because the original is good. Durability wise i am not concerned in the least. Even the cheaper Uniform company ones i rarely ever had more than a hole in a knee after maybe three years of indiustrial washing service. The key to Dickies is that they run literally two sizes small in the waist. length is spot on but waist you want to size up two sizes. I am normally a 31 waist and depending on time of year might be as low as 30 1/2 to 31 1/2 because 30's are almost always too tight and 32's are generally require a belt. Dickies in 32 became too tight, they feel like 30's. I switched to 33 in Dickies waist and they fit beautiful.

I ordered these because I wanted a pair of durable and comfortable pants anywhere. I am tired of wearing super slim pants/jeans that have little to no space in the thigh. These can be dressed up with a button-down shirt for work, or worn with a T-shirt for a skate session. The pants definitely run small in the waist. I wear 32x32 in everything, however with these I ordered a 34x32 and they fit perfect. For some reason, I remember 874s being considered baggy but these are not at all. I have thicker than average thighs (pause) and these fit just right. The waist does come up high to your belly button (not low rise), but I find it's more comfortable that way with plenty of crotch room for your genitals. The length is just right, however I will mostly wear them cuffed for style. I ordered the dark navy and it is a very very deep dark blue, but you can still tell it's not black. The material is not super duper stiff like the 874 originals are, the flex seems to be a softer material but in no way do they stretch. This is THE classic pair of pants. Order a pair of 874s. The only reason you won't like them is if you want a slimmer fit. If so, try the 873 but there is no crotch room.

These are great work pants. Worth every penny, if you can get the size that actually fits you. I wear a 36x34 from many different brands. These Flex 874's are just too tight in my waist and too long in the leg. I can still wear them, but they are not sized like my other slacks and jeans. They are about a size too small in the waist and about a size too long in the leg. Fortunately for me I'm currently losing weight and girth on a planned program, so I will be keeping these as they will fit my waist as I had originally expected sooner or later. As far as the length, they hover just above the ground and aren't causing me any trouble. Overall for the price these are great.

Good pants

These surprised me. I have never liked pants with stretch. Don't know why I tried these, but I'm glad I did. The stretch is there, but it's not extreme. I only notice it when I'm in a deep squat and pant legs get tight at the knees. I can tell these give me greater range of motion and I'm putting less stress on them. To top it off, I think they look good. These day they fit at the natural waist, but I find they fit a little below that. I'd call them mid-rise. All of the measurements are true to size. Note that this may mean your usual size 36 in other brands fits tightly in these. They do stretch a little, so it may not be an issue for you. If you carry anything IWB, you probably want to size-up even if you don't usually.

So they run small. I am used to wearing 5.1q tactical pants, and a 34 is little too big, just big enough to be comfortable if I take the belt off but without falling down. With these I could barely get the fastener closed. So I cancelled the other 3 pairs that hadn't arrived yet, and found a way so I didn't have to return this pair. Take two 5 gallon buckets, button the pants around the bottom of the bucket. Gotta have two, one will just buckle inwards. Then take a spray bottle and liberally spray the entire waist band with water. I used cold, don't think it matters. Once wet, wedge items in between bucket and pants, I used 1" pvc pipes, do that until it is VERY tight around the bucket. Even with two buckets it was buckling inwards just a little. Don't do it so much that it rips though, there is happy medium. Then let it sit overnight. Mine now fit me much better, still not as loose as I would prefer but that's only because I like my pants loose and then wear a belt. I am actually a size 33, but will be ordering size 36. Just get a pair before you get multiple.

Great price.Bought fir a Christmas gift.
