Great coverall
Sizing is on the bigger side.Good, thick and durable materials are used for this coverall.I am 6‘6“, with athletic build.Wasn’t sure if XL would be enough bc of the length- so I bought XXL. Turnes out XL would have been more than enough. It is fairly wide and long cut. Absolute worth the money

Son's work pants.
My son is a painter and uses these for work, I wash and dry them inside out and that works great. They fit and are comfortable to work in.

Dickies makes solid work/painter pants
I've been wearing the standard non-double knee Dickies for a few years now. They're a little stiff (especially at first), but as you wear them they break in OK. They're less expensive than most other brands of work pants, and for painting they're perfect. Tough enough to last me a couple of years on average, and won't break the bank.The thing you need to be aware of when you buy these is that they shrink in the wash. All the time. I'm typically a 30" waist, sometimes 29 (depending on the brand), but never anything above 30. I learned the hard way with my first pair. I now buy 32" waist, and it's all good. Wash and dry as many times as I need to. they always fit perfectly with the extra 2" waist. I don't care much about leg length, just as long as they don't turn into floods! And they don't. They hem stays at the top of my foot when I stand. That's fine for me. I don't want my work pants hanging down to my heels.This is my first pair of double knee pants though. I liked the idea and decided to give them a try. Love em! And since the actual pads that are designed to go in these pants are kinda pricey, I decided to take a chance on a small yoga knee pad. Bought it here off of Amazon for $10. Wide enough to cut into 4 even knee pads, and long enough to sit properly in the pocket. It's also thick enough to be able to curl up and slip into the pocket with no problem. I can also remove it easily at the end of the day. That was my other concern. So many reviews saying it was difficult to remove, so they left them in and washed the pants with the pads in. I'm not sure how that will work out long term. I could be wrong, but I think that after constantly washing and drying the pants WITH the pads inside will eventually break down the pad material. Then you'll potentially have foam particles all over your laundry. And I don't want that headache.Here's the link to the pad I ordered (REEHUT Yoga Knee Pad): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06Y4KXZQL/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00__o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1I give these a big thumbs up. Love not having to strap on knee pads anymore!

good pants for the mediocre painter
can't go wrong with the gold standard of painter pants. wear these and you are practically invisible. get in anywhere, wear these, a white shirt wih paint store insignia and little bucket with a brush. just tell the security guy" I got some touch up in there" that's all it takes

Good quality
These are good quality pants & and very sturdy. The fabric is thick & stitching is good. They’re comfortable to wear. They do fit true to size. Very functional & are a good price

Didn't need to order up a size
I am the height and weight of the "average" American male. However, I am female with the hourglass shape that generally goes along with that gender. Think Marilyn Monroe and you get the idea of my figure. I often wear men's jeans because women's pants, even talls, seldom fit me properly. When choosing men's pants, I have to buy a size that accommodates my birthin' hips which typically means the pants are too large in the waist. After reading the numerous reviews complaining about shrinkage, I feared that the size I normally wear in men's pants would shrink too much to fit me around the hips. So, as many suggested, I ordered up a size. When the pants arrived they were HUGE on me. I washed them in hot water and ran them through the dryer. They definitely shrunk a bit after washing and drying. They shrunk enough that I am now able to wear them but they are too big. I find myself pulling them up constantly as they slip down until the waist finds a location on my hips wide enough to stop them. This may not be as much of an issue for someone with the straight up and down figure typical of males. In the future, I will order my normal, men's pants size. Since I never wear my pants skin-tight, the bit of shrinkage that will occur will not be a problem for me. Meanwhile, a couple of darts in the waist will probably help my current pair to fit more comfortably. Additionally, I LOVE the pockets for knee pads. I ordered the pads recommended by Dickies. They fit perfectly and hit in just the right spot for when I kneel. I had surgery on one of my legs which makes it impossible for me to use knee pads that strap around my legs. The knee pad pocket is a perfect solution for me. I've had no problem inserting the knee pads nor removing them for washing.

Waist is tight
From the waist they come very tight. I’m normally a size 32x30 but I ordered a 34x30 and they fit very tight from the waist.
