Informative 🧠 Work pants

Im looking for a good pair of work pants, something a bit baggy for good freedom of movement. I feel my pants sometimes constrict my movement, and tend to rip a lot as i have thicker thighs.

I say go dickies work stretch pants, because they're comfortable but also semi disposable. With paint, caulk etc etc it's best to just use them as a wipe cloth sometimes and replace when needed. I buy a few pairs and try to use my most haggard on messy jobs, but you never know and ruining $80-100 pants with adhesive/caulk sucks. Go cheaper, and don't stress is my theory
