Vintage Dickies

Fort Worth Workwear Since 1922 · Founded 1922 · Fort Worth, Texas, USA

Williamson-Dickie has outfitted American workers from Fort Worth since 1922. The 874 work pant — flat front, tough poly-cotton twill, permanent crease — became a uniform far beyond the job site, adopted by skaters, cholo culture, and streetwear alike. USA-made vintage Dickies is increasingly collected.

How to Spot Authentic Vintage Dickies

Reproductions and mislabeled pieces are common. These are the markers that separate genuine vintage Dickies from fakes and modern items:

  • 'Made in USA' and union labels mark desirable earlier production
  • Older horseshoe logo tags help date pieces
  • Eisenhower work jackets are the vintage outerwear grail
  • Heavier twill and metal hardware on earlier 874s

Vintage Dickies Sizing

Dickies 874s run big — the workwear cut has a high rise and full seat, and vintage pairs often measure true to their tagged size unlike shrunken denim. If you want the baggy classic look, take your tagged size; size down one for a cleaner fit.
