Customer Reviews Dickies Flex Slim Straight Work Pants

Been buying the trousers for 5 years. I would like an inseam option less than 30''. The stain resistant quality seems less than it used to be. Good value though.

First off I've always been a fan of Dickies. Just their original fit is just too baggy for me as I am average height with a slim build ( 29x30) so I prefer all of my jeans / pants slimmer and to fit snug at my waist since I wear a tool belt. SO I thought I would give these a go. While these pants felt good for maybe just casual wear they would not have worked for me while I renovate homes.The fit was around the waist was perfect though the rise was shorter than I would prefer for work pants. The one thing I could not get over when I tried them on was that the seam for the bottom went right up where the sun don't shine! Because they were so much snug in the rear. Luckily I re ordered the regular fit , straight leg twill pants and they were the perfect fit. The best part of both pants was the two extra belt loops in the rear as this helps a ton to keep the pants sitting at my waist without bunching up or sagging. So like I said for ME these would be fine for casual wear just not for the work I do on a day to day basis.

I ordered three pairs of varying sizes in these pants. None of the 32/34/36 fit me. Astonishingly. (36 I could button, but still too tight). It wasn't until I went to a local skateshop to try on the right size (38). But once I found the right size I bought three pairs and I couldn't be more in love. But just have to find the right size through trial and error

Good pants but sizing ran small. We are stuck with two pairs that don't fit great bc we needed them right away to match uniform shirt. Shipping was slow!

Dickies workwear pants are second to none !! I wish these specific pants had a multi-use pocket as an option. The flex straight leg pants do but the flex slim fit straight leg unfortunately do not. Why aren't these available with the multi-use pocket? Dickies please add the multi-use pocket to this line up!!!!!

I like these pants. They fit great and seem very durable. There are two issues, however: the color is "Charcoal Gray" and that doesn't quite match. The color seems closer to teal. Also, it would be better if the rise was longer - the zipper seems too short. But I do like the pockets, the width of the legs, and the overall "toughness" of the pants while looking nice enough for office-wear.

Needs way more room in the crotch, everything else fits fine.

Bought these for landscaping to bend, stretch, etc. Thought flex would be great. Not flexible at all.

A definitely like the slim pants over the regular ones they just more my style. But unfortunately the black pants come pre-faded so I find myself wearing the khaki ones more often. will definitely be buying more

Currently setting up and exchange. I wear 38 in every other pants/ shorts I own but these 38 are too small.

Over the years I have purchased quite a few pairs of Dickies Work Pants. I wear a 34 waist with a 29 inseam. I have lost a few pounds recenty and now the 34's fit with few if any problems. The zipper length is about 1.5 inches too short. Come on guys, the opening is just not enough. The available inseam sizes need to be expanded. However, the pants fit well through the seat, thighs and legs. The stretchy flex fabric is great for people like me that are in and out of a car seat all day. The cargo pocket placement is just right for those of use who need a "wallet ectomy" by the end of my shift. I'll continue my diet. I know Dickies will continue to produce the best work wear on the market.

Ordered before (42) and it was to large. Reordered a size (40). I should have order a size 41 size but you don't make that size. Or well .

Good quality pants.. They do run big in the waist ..I wear a 34" waist in the 874 and these 873 flex I wear a 32" waist ..I hope this is helpful to other buyers..

Same size waist as my other pairs but fit a lot looser.

As usual fit is never consistent. You can order 3 of the same size and style abs all fit different.

Pants fits great, they still say 65% polyester 35% cotton but the material is not as thick or strong as the same pants I purchased 2 years ago, you can hold them up the light and see through the material. My Dickies pants that are older than 2 years are well worn but still can't see daylight through the material when held up against lighting. I also wash houses for a living I always wear dickies blue or charcoal work pants 65% polyester 35% cotton for the last 15 years I never had an issue with chemicals or bleach messing the pants up, but the new material dickies uses now in the last 2 years is not chemical resistant like the older material. the bleach will turn the blue pants pink now. My older Dickies have been covered in bleach and are still blue with no staining.

Nothing Flex about these pants. They were much like old regular cardboard stiff Dickies

Bought 2 pairs for work, within a month both pairs started to pill in the thighs. Both pairs ended up getting holes and the seams started to tear by the 2nd month. They aren't too tight either, actually had to size up. Just poor quality. Stay away from these if you have bigger thighs I guess.

These pants ride high and tight in the crotch. Also the hook and eyelet keeps coming undone. I'm not very pleased with these pants.

Super tight def made for slim men not beefy men. I work out five days a week. My size is 34 super tight. Couldn't even latch. Slim men only! Material good quality.

The zipper/crotch was the problem. The zipper was shorter than what I would consider to be normal. This makes them harder to get on and off and no room in the crotch for comfortable movement. Whether I just happened to get a bad pair I am not sure. I recommend sticking to the original fit

Not sure what kind of quality for measuring guidelines the company has or lacks, but I had a pair of 874 in a 32" waist already. I ordered a 32" waist in the slim fit and it was at least 2" larger than the 874 style pants. The slim fit are extremely low rise which was unexpected, as well. The rise being so low also threw off the length measurements I anticipated. My advice is to try to find a storefront to try these on before you purchase online.

The fit on the crutch is very short and uncomfortable. It wasn't in the description that it was VERY low rise. Or that they recommended a bigger size.

Sizing is super weird on these, they are sized like classic chinos instead of dickies. A lot of waist room, but a super high crotch.

Had to have the seat and legs taken in to get them down to regular fit. Good material and workmanship though.
