[Dan]

What brands do you use? Is dickies the main make when it comes to workwear?

dewalt for me. the only ones i can get to fit me. most other makes have shortest leg 32". i'd be tripping over every 2 minutes.

Snickers for me and the staff, probably the most expensive but worth it imo, buy cheap buy twice.

18 quid with free 8 quid knee pads, on the one I linked to mind. Not sure if they do a harder wearing one.

You guys don't crawl around much do you? Why do you need them so hardcore?

 

[telectrix]

buy twice is OK if you buy cargo pants @ £10/pair. nice and light and if wrecked, not much loss.

I usually get the ripstop ones, not quite as expensive as i thought on that site but we buy from wholesaler so they put their markup on.
