Just ripped a quarter sized hole in the crotch area on a pair of black 874s that i bought only half a year back. Fastest ive ripped a pair ever, considering dickies last me for years usually. The quality aint what it once was.
I disagree, those sound like the ones from walmart

I've almost exclusively bought the ones at walmart for 3 years now and they're still great quality. They fit great and I've only ripped the crotch on 1 pair. Not sure how people can have long lasting Dockers though, I think the crotch has ripped on every single pair of those I've had.

I only wear Dickies. They really are the best pants. Most skate clothing brands don't make 34 inch inseam, Dickies does. Their denim is cool as well. The jackets are sick too, pretty much all of Dickies stuff is sick. The clothes just last for how low the prices are.

Honestly I can't even remember, but they might've been. Aren't the ones from WalMart the same as the ones you get from anywhere else? I'm pretty sure they sell the same 874s you get anywhere else.

No, when I first bought dickies I went to Walmart and they were softer, thinner, and over all less durable. When you buy them from dickies themselves or basically any online store they are thicker, harder to break in, but more durable and overall better in my opinion.

You sure you weren't looking at the slim fit ones? The slim fit ones they sell at WalMart are thinner than the ones you get anywhere else, and they have a different logo on the back too. The 874s at WalMart have always looked and felt like the ones that they pretty much sell everywhere else. Next time you're at WalMart, take a gander.

How are Red Kap pants? Anybody ever try them?

a bit looser I think. Much better quality, more durable. Don't feel like pajama pants after 10 months.

I've never had a pair of dickies in my life, so please forgive my ingnorance, but do you guys rock them with the crease down the middle? Does the crease eventually go away? I swear I've seen guys rocking them both ways.

Mine came with the crease. They've definitely uncreased over time, but the line is still there and might still be a little creased.

crease stays forever, it just gets less stiff over time.

If you don't want a crease, soak them in half vinegar/half water. Then iorn out the crease. Wash them to get the vinegar smell out.
The vinegar will get the starch out that makes them so stiff, so you kinda have to soak them for awhile.

Never even heard of 803s. Are they baggier than 874s or slimmer?

Haha oh man, they're slim skinny fits, much slimmer than 874s but not as bad as 801/811s ( i wear those too work)

The main thing about them that's bugging me after skating in them all day is the legs are ridiculously long for a 30x32 compared too other pairs i've had so cuffing them is kind of necessary so i don't look stupid

sartorial threads are the worst but i feel as a longtime dickies wearer i should clear something up. there's a newer weaker kind of dickies someone mentioned that are thinner. you can tell by the belt loops, old school crease forever worker man's pants that will get Patra to sleep w/ you have all fat loops except a thin one where your spine should be.
the newer halfassed dickies have all thinner belt loops. it's like how champion sweatshirts have horizontal stitching on the thick ones and a generic verticle sewn sweater that won't keep you quite so cozy.
if you live in warmer climes then perhaps you prefer the cheaper, thinner dickies [and champions] but they're not gonna convince Patra you're a worker man and you'll miss out on all of dat ay-uss.

I love the Dickies 874 but the creases are the reason I wouldn't say it's a 10/10 pair of pants. I hate the crease  >:(
