Can anyone of you recomend a good pair of work trousers needs a new pair? Obviously looking for good value for money.

Thanks
 
Dickies

I usually wear these because they have loads of pockets as I tend to be a bit of a hoarder and I like to carry lots of odds and ends.
 
I go to my local army and navy shop buy there work trousers £15, when they get covered in sealant, plumber mait and tallow etc, they look too bad they get binned and another pair bought.

£15 cheap as chips.
 
I like Snickers but probably going to get Strauss for my next pair as Snickers are so flipping expensive. I don't like Dickies as the fit is really weird for me.

Most important thing for me now is knee protectors built in.
 
im a snickers man also, i tend to wait until they have a sale on and then get a few pairs and some other stuff for a knock down price, try snickers direct if your thinking of getting some.
 
snickers 3212's they are the best.....

Dr Martens or euro hiker...or Timberlands....never trainers....in my opinion if you want to wear trainers with work wear...become a painter.....
 
I bought a pair of CAT work trousers for about £49 (40 inch waist) and then lost 3.5 stone rendering them redundant as I'm down to 34 Inch now.

I'm done with expensive gear I'll grow out of and just mooch around now in a pair of £20 Screwfix trousers.

Steel toe caps alls the way. Boots for outside work and winter. Steel toe cap trainers for inside work.

snickers for me yes they are expensive but i got two pairs about 18months ago and they are still going strong so £120 over 18 months whats that about £8 a month? and there is still life in them yet
 
Great value and hard wearing with all the pockets you'll ever need.....

I've got 5 pairs and they last well.

Without a shadow of a doubt. Snickers!
My brother is on his fourth set of cheap toolstation specials that fall to bits within 6 months.(won't listen to me about you do get what you pay for) I have two pairs snickers that two years later are still 100% intact. Bit dirtier and stained now though.
Got mine in arco sale for £38. What a bargain!
Would never buy anything else.
 
I bought scruffs pro from screwfix about 4 months ago i found them very comfy and they seem very well made and hardwearing .plenty pockets too

Scruffs pro every time, tough hard wearing, superb fit, top loading knee pad pockets and loads of pockets also look pretty smart. Re getting them covered in sealant and wotnot I prefer to put it on what im working on, not me troosers :yes:
 
i have been buying them dickies cheap n cheerful one from screwfix £18 like the look of snickers but to tight might treat myself one day lol but i am mostly in cargo shorts
