Dickies men's shorts

Dickies runs roomy and measures in inches: W for the waist, L for the leg length. On a pre-owned pair of shorts, the critical point is the crotch, where the fabric thins through rubbing before it gives way. Also check the belt loops and the fastening along its whole run. On chino or canvas shorts, a shiny area on the seat indicates a garment that has been worn a lot, even if the colour looks intact.
