Dickies

Pre-owned Dickies trousers, shirts and T-shirts, from the 874 work pant to short-sleeve work shirts with chest pockets. Each item is measured flat and carries a condition label.

Work trousers

Trousers form the largest group. Most are straight-leg work pants in cotton twill or cotton canvas, with a flat front, belt loops and welt or patch pockets, and the collection includes the 874 as well as loose-fit and slim straight cuts. Cargo pants have flap pockets in twill or canvas, and a few pairs show paint marks that are stated in the description. Dungarees and jeans complete the bottoms.

Work shirts and T-shirts

The shirts are short-sleeve and long-sleeve work shirts with flap or patch chest pockets and a pointed or camp collar, several with an embroidered logo or a name tag. The T-shirts include pocket tees and long sleeves in cotton jersey, as well as henleys, and there is a polo in cotton piqué.

Size and measurements

Dickies uses American waist and inseam sizing in inches, for example 32x30, and older pairs can have shrunk with washing, so the label is only a rough guide. Trousers are measured at the waist, the hip and the inseam, and shirts and T-shirts flat at four points: across the chest from armpit to armpit, the length of the body, across the shoulders and the length of the sleeve. Comparing those numbers with an item already in the wardrobe gives a more reliable result than the label. The method is explained in the guide to measuring pit to pit.

The Dickies buying guide covers the brand and its models, and Duck Canvas, Denim and Drill explains the fabrics. More workwear is available from Carhartt, Carhartt WIP and Lee & Wrangler, and in the workwear collection.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Dickies 874?
The 874 is the original straight-leg work pant from Dickies, with a permanent crease. It has been in production since 1967.

Does the size on the label match?
Not always, because older pairs can shrink with washing. The measurements in the description are a better guide than the label.

How are Dickies items dated?
By the label design and the country of manufacture.
