Description
The classic Dickies 874 Original Fit Work Pants in a versatile Charcoal Grey. Features a high-rise waist, straight leg, and the iconic stiff, durable twill fabric. Designed with a hook-and-eye waist closure, brass zipper fly, and wide tunnel belt loops. These are the gold standard for both heavy labor and streetwear styling.
Key Features
High-rise fit is currently very popular in streetwear and skating subcultures. Charcoal color is a 'staple' neutral that sells faster than brighter colors. Extremely durable construction and wrinkle-resistant fabric.
Authenticity Indicators
High confidence. Look for the 'Dickies' horseshoe logo patch above the back right pocket and the branded interior waistband. The sturdy brass YKK zipper and hook-and-eye closure are standard for authentic 874s.
Flaws to Note
No visible flaws. Check the interior waistband for any bleach stains or name-markings from previous owners, which are common in workwear.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Depop or Poshmark are best for this specific style because of its current popularity in 'Gen-Z' fashion. eBay is a solid secondary choice for a quick sale to a blue-collar buyer.
Selling Tips
Measure the flat waist and the inseam, as Dickies sizing can sometimes run small. Use keywords like 'Skater,' 'Streetwear,' 'Y2K Style,' and 'Gorpcore.' Flat-lay photos against a clean background will perform better than hanging photos for this specific item.
