Review: The Work Pant That Keeps Winning — Husband Approved - I’ve seen a lot of workwear reviews on desertcart claiming durability and value, but the Dickies pants actually delivers in ways most others don’t. My husband wears these pants nearly every day now, and they’ve held up through yard work, rain, tool belts, long shifts, and more, yet they still look sharp. The fabric blend feels strong and sturdy, yet breaks in just the right amount so they never feel stiff or restrictive. Despite heavy use, the seams, pockets, and belt loops have stayed intact with no tearing or fraying, even in high-stress areas that usually fail in cheaper pants. The wrinkle-resistant and stain-release finish really works, keeping them neat enough to go from work to errands without looking worn out. The fit is smart, roomy in the seat and thigh but with just enough taper so they don’t look baggy. Many reviews mention issues with fit, but ours were true to size and broke in beautifully. Even after countless wash and dry cycles, the color and structure remain solid, showing very little fading or sagging. Plenty of reviews praise “durability” or “value,” but few back it up with months of real, heavy wear. These pants do. Easily a five-star pant for anyone needing dependable, everyday workwear that doesn’t compromise on style.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do these have a crotch gusset?**
A: I just started a heavy metal band and we havnt been able to come up with a name...which is now Crotch Gusset. Thank you kind stranger!

**Q: how roomy are the pockets ?**
A: Back pockets are normal size, front pockets are tiny. They are shallow and come to a point. I can barely get each of my hands into the empty left and right front pockets, so it is hard to get anything out of the pockets. I try to carry a notebook in the front left pocket and it barely fits, but then it is hard to get it back out since it fits snugly under the waistband. The notebook is 6x4.25x.75 inches.

For this reason alone I will not buy any more Dickieds unless I can check the pockets beforehand. It's too bad, because the  pants fit great and look sharp.

**Q: Do they run big or small or true to size?**
A: They run extremely small. I wear a size 40 or 42 and I gotta buy them in the 50's. Don't buy these online if you can buy in store and try them on.

**Q: Do these pants have a permenant crease?**
A: Sitting here in a pair of 874's.
After probably a few dozen washings the crease is still visible.
