FAQs
What material are the Dickies WD801 trousers made from?
The trousers are made from a blend of 65% polyester and 35% cotton, with a fabric weight of 260gsm.
Can I use any brand of knee pads with these trousers?
While the trousers feature kneepad pouches, they are specifically designed to be compatible with Dickies Knee Pads for a secure and optimal fit. Using incompatible pads may affect performance and safety.
How should I wash and care for these trousers?
They are machine washable at a maximum of 40°C, can be tumble dried on low heat, and ironed at a medium temperature. Avoid bleaching and do not iron printed areas.
Are these trousers suitable for hot weather?
The 260gsm fabric blend offers durability but may be warmer in extremely hot conditions. For very high temperatures, lighter weight workwear might be more comfortable.
What type of pockets do these trousers have?
They feature multiple pockets including holster pockets, a rule pocket, back patch pockets, and a top pocket on the flap. They also have bottom-loading kneepad pouches.
Is the red stitching purely decorative?
The red contrast stitching is part of the design aesthetic, adding a distinctive look to the trousers, and also contributes to the overall construction.
What does 'bottom loading' mean for the kneepad pouches?
'Bottom loading' means that the kneepads are inserted into the pouch from the bottom opening, which helps to keep them securely in place during use.
Troubleshooting
Kneepad pouches not holding pads securely.
Ensure you are using compatible Dickies Knee Pads and that the Velcro fastening is fully engaged and clean. Check for debris inside the pouch that might prevent a secure closure.
Fabric feels stiff after washing.
Follow the recommended washing and drying instructions. Avoid high heat drying, which can cause stiffness. Try ironing at a medium temperature as per care instructions.
Stitching appears to be loosening.
Inspect the area for wear and tear. If it's minor, a professional tailor might be able to reinforce it. For significant issues, consider the trousers nearing the end of their usable life for heavy-duty work.
Pockets seem too small for specific tools.
Review the product description for pocket dimensions if available, or consider the intended use of each pocket (e.g., rule pocket for a tape measure, holster pockets for bulkier items). For very large tools, external tool belts may be necessary.
