Begle take all your Dickies to a seamstress & have her put velcro in your pockets.

You may look and see if you can find Key workwear in your area, switched from Carharts because of the poor fit.

They are great pants and standing upside down working on heavy equipment it has been a rare occasion that I lose anything.

I agree the pockets in Dickies suck.
He's talking about the "Pro Rodeo" style jean with the heavier weight denim, and the patch on the back pocket.


...not the style that Dale, Jr. and Brett Favre pitch on TV commercials.

Wally world had some new Dickies the other day I'd like to try; they're more like 5:11 pants.

I don't know about the pockets, but I get my Dickies from a work clothing store. The ones made in Mexico are much better made than the walmart Dickies and are a few bucks cheaper. I like my Wranglers from walmart, they seem to hold up well. And also the Rustlers from walmart seem to last me pretty good. I'm pretty rough on my clothes, and most everything I have has a rip, stain, or a burn hole from welding spatter.

If stuff falls out of your pockets...then take the stuff out first
