Best Utility Carpenter Jeans
These are the best utility jeans I've found at Dickies. I've bought others that didn't last. Here's what I noticed, the ones are Red label. The thinner ones have a black label on the hip pocket. The Red label jeans are the best. Now hopefully Dickies don't change anything so we have to figure everything out all over again.... Show more

Disappointed
I’m disappointed with my latest purchase from Dickies. I’ve been wearing their jeans for 20+ years and have been a good product, but this latest pair is disappointing. The front pockets are so small, an iPhone 13 mini doesn’t fit without sticking out. Add in some keys and some other items carried on a regular basis and they are useless. Whatever you have in your pockets lands right in the crease of your legs when you sit instead of being down on top of your thigh. Not comfortable at all. Called customer support and they couldn’t tell me if that was intentional or a mistake. My choices are to exchange and hope the next ones are better or refund. Or find another brand…... Show more

Falls apart, poor quality
I bought these jeans because I’m a bigger guy 48” waist, Im an electrician and needed some work jeans, Dickies stoped making 48/50” in their heavy weight work jeans so I tried these. They didn’t last three months before they tore everywhere, pack pocket and material ripped off, inseam ripped wide open on the other pair I bought both pair at the same time. If you want to look like you’re a working man these are your jeans if you do work for a living get somthing else these just fall apart after a few weeks.... Show more

Front pocket not as deep as old ones.
I have been wearing these jeans for many years. Had been 5 stars for all that time. New ones came in a couple of weeks back and II just put on the first pair. Still had a new old pair and putt them in service first. On the newest ones, the front pocket is shallower. My phone does not fit in past the bend of my leg anymore and just barely fits in the pocket (lengthwise) Please make them the way you used to.... Show more

Great quality but pockets need refinememt
Jeans fit and quality are great, the only issues I have are with the pockets. 5th pocket about 1 inch too long you can not get your finger all the way into it. Front side pockets are 2 to 3 inches too short I can not fit keys, front pocket wallet and pen. Wallet is left in an uncomfortable position. Side lower pocket is 1/2 inch too narrow.... Show more

heavyweight jeans NOT heavier
I recently bought both relaxed fit carpenter jeans( 19294) and Relaxed Fit "heavyweight" jeans (1993) . Other than the color both were the same denim material tho the heavyweight was $5 dollars more. I was led to believe that the heavyweight would be a thicker heavier denim as it was a couple of years ago when i last purchased a pair of 1993s. I have that pair and the denim is obviously thicker and heavier. Please explain... Show more

Quality going down hill
Jeans are thinner every time I order . Not of quality they use to be . I end up warranty every pair I buy . I can say so far they have been standing good by 2 year warranty. But the jeans are 12-18 months old when I receive them . Then when it’s warranty time I have to try prove to them when I purchased them & which order jeans in question were on . I only by form dickies and have an account with them . At some point it will be more trouble than it’s worth .I have a pair I need to warranty right now .... Show more

Sad, quality keeps going down hill
Bought these jeans from Walmart until they started carrying your jeans that were not 100% cotton. Then ordered online and all was good. Second order online jeans had changed, much smaller front pockets and seemed to be lower quality. I had 2 pair from that order with belt loops that broke. Recently placed third order online and they seem to be even more lightweight and lower quality. Currently in search of another brand to buy next time I need jeans. Its sad, when you have a really good product, you have to change things. If you went back to the jeans you made 3 years ago… i would be a life long customer.... Show more

Tool pocket could be bigger.
I’ve worn Dickies carpenter almost jeans almost exclusively for the last 14-15 years. The price and quality can’t be beat. Over the last year I have lost some weight and needed a smaller waist size. Most of the local retailers that used to carry them have stopped for some reason (they have other Dickies pants and shirts, just not the single front carpenter jeans), or they are asking waaaay too much for them (some as much as $56/pair). I took advantage of the holiday sales and ordered these jeans and paid about $20 with tax/shipping. Had issues with FedEx not being able to track them for over three days and changing my delivery date several times, but that’s on them. The jeans fit perfectly and are comfortable as always. My only gripe is that the tool pocket has been ... MoreI’ve worn Dickies carpenter almost jeans almost exclusively for the last 14-15 years. The price and quality can’t be beat.

My only gripe is that the tool pocket has been reduced in size from my older pairs to the point that my iPhone 8S (with a simple snap on cover) will not fit. The whole reason I wear this style of jeans is so I don’t have to carry my phone in either a front or back pocket or one of those God awful belt holsters. It’s only about 1/4”-1/2” too narrow, but it effective renders the pocket useless. For comparison , I tried stuffing my phone in the tool pocket of one of the $56 pairs at a local store and had the same issue. I’ve read other reviews on several different Dickies carpenter jeans that say the same thing (pocket has gotten smaller). Seems there needs to be some revisions in the manufacturing.... Show more

What happened?
I was very disappointed with the quality of the jeans. I have purchased these several times in the past and quality is completely different. I always order the same size but the jeans that arrived stated they were the same size, were at least a size smaller. Also, the material was much thinner and lighter than previously. Again, very disappointed and I won't purchase them again. 😡... Show more
