    The only pants I wear.
    I am unsure what the B01’s were like prior to the pair I started wearing last year, but so far as those goes these are the best pants I have ever wore. They are sturdier, more comfortable (after wash and wear), and look better than anything else. The duck fabric works and washes beautifully.

    My only gripe: I wish there were more color options. At least a white to allow for dying.

    Don’t ever discontinue these pants, Carhartt.

    It's made with good, thick material. I'm very impressed with the quality. However, I first purchased this in my brother's actual size (32w x 32l) and it didn't fit at all. I had to return it and purchase a 36w x 32l which fit way better. It was a tad loose on his waist, but it's perfect with a belt and we're expecting it to shrink a little after washing. So ya'll, buy two sizes up!!!

    I purchased the pants for my grandson. He is a truck driver and welder. He is always crawling under things and generally getting dirty. He really likes the ruginess of the pants.

    Nice jeans. Buy them all the time for work(construction) and yard work. They last for years. Size is right and are comfortable. Can't go wrong with Carhartt gear.

    These are true work-pants. Heavy and tough. Not for casual wear. Resistant to tears, stains, slag-burns and knee-ware. A bit stiff at first but do get more comfortable after a few wears and washes..

    I have had these pants in the past but didn't know the size I needed as I've gotten heavier. I matched the size of ALL of my other pants (38-30) and the waist was tight and the leg too long on these. I had to return. I do love the pants and I know they last very well. I still recommend buying, but choose sizing carefully.

    Super Qualität!
    W34/L32 ist zwar eng geschnitten, aber die Hose passt gerade noch.
    Die Qualitt ist herausragend, die Nhte sind teilweise dreifach vernht.
    Das Teil ist nicht nur fr die Arbeit gemacht, auch in der Freizeit macht das Teil einen guten Eindruck, ich htte mir anfangs nicht gedacht, dass sich diese Hose auch zum Wandern, Bogenschieen…..so toll eignet.
    Fazit: Eine Hose fr echte Mnner!

    Pants shrunk after cold wash and air dry
    The pant length may seem long but they shrink in length even after a cold wash.

    Size up in the waste by an inch or two

    The stitching for the most part is immaculate.

    I got a made in the USA pair which was a nice surprise

    Golden Review Award: 5 From Our UsersThese pants last me forever compared to ariats or any other pants. Working in a mill my pants take a lot of abuse with wood splinters rubbing and just general abuse, but these carhartts can take it. I’ve never gotten a splinter wearing these pants with the double front they are amazingly tough. My only issue is they don’t have a lot of stretch so be sure to get the right size and maybe be a little generous with the size. I’m usually a 34 32 but my waist in these pants fit perfectly in a 33 or 34 waist.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersI knew I've gained a few pounds but thought I was going crazy. 33x30 use to fit but was getting tight so the next year and time for new pants I bought a 34x30 and after a few months again pants are getting to tight, to the point that the 33x30 and the 34x30 are just as tight. Ordered a 36x30 and these things are hanging off of me. So I searched a bit and turns out I'm shrinking my pants with a warm/cold default wash cycle. Trying to scratch my old pants back out and having some success but still can't wear either pair for a full day. PLEASE Do NOT wash in warm water. Really miss my good fitting pants but at 60+ bucks a pair I'll have to suffer and try and get these things fitting well again.

    Loving these carhartts
    Very good trousers i bought a 33w30l as that was all that was available and they fit perfect.
    My waist measures 91 cm and my inner leg from crotch to bottom of mi foot is 83cm. Im normally a 34w/31l in the uk. I previously bought carhartt double front utility pants straight fit, but there no good for me to skinny cant move in them. These are the mutts nutts not too baggy just right, maybe the legs are about an inch longer than they should be but I’ve read they will shrink up a bit, waist size is pretty accurate from my experience . What i don’t quite understand is the difference in price of different sizes, if i wanted to get a 34w it was 45 more, how does that work. Will be buying more when there available which seems to be a problem here in the uk at the mo. Would like a pair in the gravel colour, seen a picture but not available anywhere. Overall excellent purchase robust well built American quality.

    Golden Review Award: 10 From Our UsersI am 5'8 175 and wear 34x30 when I bought these pants I got size 34x30 and had them for a few months washed them etc. One day I measured the length because I noticed they were a bit short and not as lengthy and they measured out to be just under 29 inches. So I realized as I keep washing them will will continue to get shorter and shorter (washed with cold and dried low heat sometimes air dried). The waist wasn't a issue because as you wear them they get loose so I bought a size 33x32 and I tried them on and the waist fit perfectly. Obviously the length was long and of course the pants were firm, I measured the new pants and they were 33 in the length and was really long for me but I gave them a wash and keep wearing them. So far I washed them a little over 10 times and had them for only a few months and just measured them earlier and they are 31 in length and are not to short or to baggy just perfect!. So I see other reviews of people saying "there to stiff" "so long" bla bla bla grow up lol all you need to do is wash them and once they break in you won't want to take them off. (My own experience others may vary)

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersHey, I'm a former pro skateboarding push, kick! If you don't get that this review is not for you they are super tight at the waist but super baggy like what you wore in the 90's everywhere else. Easy access 😎. But I swear tight in the waist but don't go bigger or the paints are wearing you. No BS I rode with Hensley, Story, Derdeck. Even got into it with the goat. Most cargos are my style but size is 34 waist and sort of loose at that size. These are tight. No belt required at 34 when most others are falling out without a belt at the same size.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersYeah, they run small.
    As many others have stated, these DO run a bit small in the waist, very similar to how dickies run in sizing. They also run a bit longer in the inseam, so keep that in mind. You’d probably do okay at going one size up from your regular blue jeans size (think levis). I’m a skinny guy at 5’11” 150 lbs, I have worn 32×30 in blue jeans since high school, I wear a 33×30 in dickies 874s and I ordered a 34×30 in these Carhartt b01s. They’re a bit loose in the waist but I’m certain that’ll go away once I run them through the wash (they’re 100% cotton so expect some shrinkage) you should also use that as another reason to size up, so that they don’t shrink and become unwearable! I definitely could have gotten away with a 33×30 but I was very concerned about them shrinking in the waist (an issue I never had with dickies since they’re made of polyester) and I’m glad I made that choice. Aside from the sizing, they are well made, and well worth the money I spent on them. I needed new pants for work since I’m constantly blowing out the knees on my blue jeans (I work maintenance at a university so I’m repairing washing machines a lot of the time) and these fit the bill. They’re tough and I’ll bet I’ll have a hard time getting through the double knee construction. I only wish they were an actual 30″ inseam, so that I didn’t have to roll the cuffs up on them, but that’s no big deal. All in all, they do run small, so order a size or two up from your usual blue jean size.

    *UPDATE: 4/19/21* –
    I ordered another pair in black in a size 33×30, they fit much better around the waist than the 34s. If you’re a slimmer guy and you’re unsure of what size to get, maybe try going one size up vs. 2 full sizes. Going one size up from a 32 to a 33 seemed to fit me better. Just wanted to make that distinction.

    Worth a buy.
    Really comfy trousers. Normally I would have 32R but went by other reviews and ordered 32/30. Fit perfectly, loose enough to be comfortable but not too baggy. I have used scruffs in the past and these fit soo much better. They feel well made and will hopefully last.
    Main use for work in the garage/ on the farm and general work on motorbikes.
    Will definitely order from more in the future.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersSolid semi-protective pant; Carhartt sizing can vary a bi
    I work in greenhouses, and I am constantly rubbing against thigh-high benches that are either wood or metal with the occasional nail head, piece of chicken wire, or expanded sheet metal sticking out. I have ripped through pants on their first day of use, and had cuts on many occasions. These pants have held up much better than my pairs of inexpensive big brand work pants. I’m on 3 months of wearing these most days, and I wash them at least once/week and any time I use them to apply chemicals to crops. They have faded some, and stained, but that’s of no importance to me.

    Another aspect of my job is varying work environments, and the fact that I am always getting splashed with water. I think these are a good option for most temperatures. They breathe less than jeans and are more comfortable in cool weather, but their loose fit helps them to not be stifling in warm weather. Paired with a decent pair of thermal long underwear, these are perfect for working in almost anything short of sub-zero temperatures. When they get wet they don’t tend to stick to you like most pants, and they dry quickly.

    Fit-wise, for me, the waist is a little loose, the inseam is just right, and the overall fit is somewhat loose, not “late 90’s baggy jeans” loose. Quite comfortable once broken in. I expect a loose fit for a work pant to accommodate lots of moving, crouching, kneeling, etc. I’ve found the inseam on Carhartt pants to vary between product lines, but my normal pant size worked for these “B01” pants.

    If you do real work, get these pants!
    I ordered extra long 34″ inseam with 30″ waist and I’m very happy!

    I work in the Sonoran desert doing bee work and the extra Inseam length fits perfectly around my boots without ever pulling up off of my ankle, which is perfect for keeping bees out of my pants. I feel much safer walking through the brush and cactus, as the double front is thick and gives me the peace of mind to focus on what I’m doing, like carrying heavy equipment or managing angry bees.

    The waist is a little high and sits just below my belly button, which is not bad but personally took a little getting used to. The pants are extremely sturdy which makes lifting my knee higher than my hip a little difficult, but for most movement they are relatively free-moving.

    I love all the pockets! Being able to organize my tools is unbelievably useful while I work. I can rely on these pants for any use I put them through. The hammer retainer can be used for a GoPro with a handle as well!

    In all, I love these pants. They are my dedicated work pants as I don’t trust anything else to keep me as protected as these do. Thanks Carhartt!

    Hard wearing trousers.
    I am a gardener, which really takes its toll on clothing. I have a pair of these and they really are tough and durable. After a couple of years, just a few wear holes are showing. Only gripe is that they fade after a few washes to beige. If these ever do wear out, I will definitely buy another pair.

    Smart and tough trousers
    The trousers fit really well – I have a 37″ inside leg and they cover my bootlaces. The high waist is fantastic and the quality of cloth and stitch is very high. An added bonus for me was that the knee has a pocket for knee pads that I didn’t spot on the description – you can slide up a pad through an upside down pocket, I used a set of pads from my Snickers that were flexible enough to squeeze in. I leave them in even when I wash the trousers and they have dried with no problems. I chose these trousers because they were described a rugged and they looked smart as well and I have not been disappointed.

    Golden Review Award: 67 From Our UsersThe excellent product I remember!
    I haven’t owned a pair of Carhartt jeans in over 15 years, closer to 20 as the last time I had them I was working as a carpenter. I now run a welding/fabricating/mechanic/maintenance operation on a fleet of car haulers, so I’ve been in the market for work wear that has very high demand set on it. After reading some of the lower reviews on here about Carhartt, I was a bit skeptical, but I took sizing into consideration based on reviews for this particular pair of pants.

    I couldn’t be more impressed. These pants fit lovely, exactly the way they did when I was young. They’re comfortably firm in the waist, and perfectly loose and flexible everywhere you need tbem to be. I have to roll under trucks, weld in odd inverted positions, crawl out of car windows, and climb trailers all night to secure loads- these pants are exactly what I need.

    The main deciding factor on choosing these pants is Carhartt’s wise decision to move manufacturing back to the U.S.- the same reason I continue to buy Red Wings boots. I’ll gladly pay more for superior materials and craftsmanship- and it butters another Americans bread as well, so it is a triple win at that point.

    The inseam is a bit long on these pants, but who cares? It won’t be long before they start to fray out at the bottoms and the extra length will buy me a lot more use out of them.

    Sign me up for a bunch more, in the market for more Carhartt work wear too- jackets, hoodies, etc.

    Update: 3-27-17

    Took me a year and 4 months to wear out two pairs of these I wore in rotation 7 days a week under very harsh conditions. Just got my first new pair I reordered, I forgot how great they fit when they’re new! A fan of these pants as long as they keep making them. Tough as nails!

    Update 10/8/20:

    I’ve bought nothing but these pants for the last 5 years now- Amazon keeps them in stock, they arrive fast, the quality and price is great, hasn’t fluctuated price wise at any considerable amount.

    As long as they keep making em, there’s no reason I’d ever quit buying em!

    best work trousers I've bough
    These trousers are the best I’ve tried yet …and I have tried just about every brand available including esab leather front welding trousers (as I am a welder ) they are useless !!! It seems only in america can work trousers be made to last . I’ve had these carhart trousers for about a month now without any rips burns or seem fails and that is a mirical as the last ten different pairs I’ve bought have struggled to survive a week . carhartt workwear forever for me now . ( I am 32 leg 34 waist ) the waist is a nice fit but 30 inch leg fits me ..plenty long enough ( they sit on my boot about the same as the guy in the picture ) I first bought 32 inch waist because everyone was saying on here that they would be massive , they were too tight . my experience is that the waist sizes are accurate but the legs are quite over length . I hope this might help if you thinking of buying .

    Best work jean ever, but thinner this year?
    I own 5 of these and love them… Just bought 2 more( same great cut, but the material is noticeably thinner!! Why change the best work jean ever made??). Great fit and look and very rugged. Comfortably carry wrenches, screwdrivers, channel locks, etc in the side pockets without worry of damaging the pockets. Hammer loop also strong. They come slightly big, but shrink more than most jeans. The color also fades much more than you would expect on the first wash. The weird orange color fades significantly, closer to a more normal light brown. The black, unfortunately, also fades a lot. The double front is great, mainly because you have 2 thick layers to kneel on for jobs with occasional kneeling. You can also slide in some pads they sell thru a hole just below the knee for moderate kneeling work.. It also blocks the wind on my motorcycle better than normal jeans.
    I also have the overalls for these -be sure to buy them big due to shrinkage.
    All of my other jeans get holes in the knees or pockets, but these take a lot more abuse with no holes. All of my previous B01 double front carhartt were noticeably stiff for weeks and would actually hold the shape of your body when you take them off ( it sounds weird, but I love them and they break in nicely). The new pairs are thinner and not as stiff… I hope that this does not indicate lower quality. Fyi- there are rivets in several places and on cold mornings I feel the cold thru one on my upper thigh- a tiny dab of something (5 min epoxy, paint, or silicon caulking) to cover it from the inside of the pant sorts that out if it bugs you.
    In attached photo, I have 14″ pipe wrench in hammer loop, and 12″ channel locks, 10″ crescent and screwdriver… And comfortably climb ladders/work all day without anything falling out.

    Made in the USA
    I’ve only had these for a short time, and they’re really quite something. In the past I’d heard of Carhartt in passing conversation, but never actually had a product for myself, so when I needed durable work “khakies” (of sorts) I went for these—I don’t regret it. Straight from Amazon I bought my normal size (30×32) and it came in the right waist although perhaps an inch or so longer than expected, but I imagine this would be great for boots as the weather cools down again. In terms of the groin, there’s a regular amount of room, no crazy “ballroom” fitting like Duluth (but neither are these $80 pants for scraping your wallet). The material (12oz per yard^2 density) is fantastic, and is so dense that even light water spray or rain does bead on these (although in no way are these waterproof—just like any other cotton product—because it’s made of 100% COTTON). Double layering takes place in the front of the leggings from the upper thigh down to the shins, producing a grand total of 24oz per yard^2 density in that area, along with the bottom of the second layer being unstitched from the first to allow for the use of knee pads. Stitching also appears suburb, with “made in the USA” being a plus in addition to the nowadays hard to find “Carhartt” button and tough zipper. The large range of pockets are also a great addition, and something that I’ve never had before in such a usable package. All the pockets are deep, and apart from your general jeans arrangement there is the addition of a hammer loop on the left leg alongside a “small” (6″ deep) pocket, then a similar pocket on the other leg with a duplicate just above it. My time with these pants so far has been on a Tall Ship sailing, running and relaxing, and for all situations apart from anything close to a split these have done well. It seems like it might take some time to wear in these un-“washed” Carhartts, but in the end I think they’re going to work out nicely. Even now these are becoming my new favorite pants!

    Update:
    After wearing these almost daily for weeks now, I can confidently say these are my new favorite pants in all weather but the rain. They wear in around the edges, though aren’t prone to coal dust or dirt stains and are still the same brown color I purchased them as (Carhartt Brown) through numerous washes. Comfort has also been great as I’m able to wear them 24 hours a day (literally, I’ve slept in them), through a rigorous work day in hot summer weather and—oddly enough—with nothing else on whatsoever. Lastly, the seams are well in order, and nothing had torn or began fraying to pieces—I’ll update again if anything changes.

    Love my new workwea
    The info from the seller wasn’t wrong – these trousers really are on the large side. I went against washing instructions to wash at high temperature and max temperature tumble dry to get them to shrink and I’ve still got plenty of room! I wear braces (suspenders) so the extra waist is not a massive (no pun intended) problem.
    The cotton softens after a few washes and they are very comfortable.
    I wear knee pads in mine and I’m not sure if the outer layer of fabric covering will last as long as my Snickers or Blaklader trousers – only time will tell. I did need to open up the bottom stitching of the knee pad pocket to make it easier to get the foam knee pads in and out.
    I ordered a second pair one waist size down but I’ve not worn them yet – hopefully they won’t feel too snug after the stacks of room in the first pair.

    Carhartt. The name says it all really. Seldom do I Eulogise, but I would almost say they were over engineered! Superb clothing.

    Golden Review Award: 73 From Our UsersThe best value motorcycling pants I've ever bought. **And 4 or 5 years later, still are.
    I wrote the attached review a few years ago now when I first started wearing carhartts jeans on my motorbike. They quickly became the only brand of jeans I wear on the bike and still are. I particularly like being able to order my exact size, particularly the leg length. I’m a shade over 6′ tall, and having heavyweight canvas jeans with 36″ legs makes sure there’s plenty of material bunched over the tops of my boots to block the wind. They can get a little warm at rest stops on 80+ degree days, on the other hand they protect your legs better when you’re back on the road in full sun.

    I have a several pairs of these dungarees, a couple common-or-garden, a pair of flannel-lined for colder days so I don’t have to bother with longjohns/thermals, a pair 2″ oversized waist for concealed carry or wearing over thick thermals/sweat pants/Levi’s, and the faded old pair with the front knee panel worn through that are still plenty good enough for yardwork. These things last a long time.

    One last thing – if you wash them inside out, the brass rivets won’t smack around the inside of the washer and drier drums, and your vintage t-shirts, quite so hard; and if you dry them on ‘Low’, you’ll have a better chance of fastening them the next time you put them on.

    Original review:
    I heard about Carhartt work pants as good bike pants over a year ago, and when my last pair of riding jeans wore out, I finally decided to risk $35 to find out. They were right. I’ve been riding bikes for 35 years, mostly in Lees and Levi’s boot cuts, and a decade ago I discovered kevlar lined ‘Draggin’ Jeans’, which are soft, comfortable and great peace of mind for well over a hundred bucks. These Carhartt double fronted dungarees may not protect my ass quite as much as kevlar, but they’re as hard as nails and at around forty dollars including tax and freight, I don’t need to look any more.

    These pants are not far short of wire mesh straight out of the box. I washed mine four times on the long cycle, warm, with extra suds before giving them two rinses and throwing three fabric softener sheets in the tumble dryer with them. After more than 2,000 miles on the bike, lots of normal everyday wear and numerous more washes, these pants have not so much attained the soft like-a-deerskin-glove feel that favorite denim jeans do – it feels more as if it’s shaping itself to my body….the double front keeps your legs warm from the pocket line to halfway down your shin, where your 8″ boots take over. They are not going to get you home dry through a thunderstorm, but they are more rain resistant than denim and they’re just fine in light showers or on wet roads.

    These pants sit most comfortably with the belt line at navel level, and they do it without wedging you. This makes a big difference to how cold your back gets after the first 50 miles. I usually take a 36×34, but got these in a 36×36, which are perfect on a bike – the extra 2″ stops them riding up past ankle height, even with feet on highway pegs at 70mph, there’s less wind whistling up the canyon, and that helps keep you a lot warmer than those hip hugging waders…now that I’m used to them, I wear these pants all day, everyday, and I don’t have to worry about getting changed into something more robust if I see a job that needs doing around the house, garden or garage.

    I bought one pair to try. After a month and a thousand miles on the bike, I bought another black pair, and a ‘Carhartt Brown’ (that weird mustardy beige color) pair for gardening, hunting and camping. The pockets are roomy, and I fit my glasses case in the right hand tool pocket, cell phone in the left, and can hang a 4x D-cell torch through the hammer loop. I have a custom made 2″ wide leather belt which fits the loops, which it doesn’t on ‘normal’ denim jeans. Because these sit at the waist, I can cinch them up and hang my Buck, Leatherman and a folding tool off it, on top of all the other aforementioned bits and pieces, plus wallet and loose change, all without risking walking out of my trousers. If superheroes wore jeans, this is what they’d wear.

    They look pretty reasonable for a burger & beer night out, but after a few miles you might want to pull out the designer labels if you’re going out to a real restaurant.

    I’ll be interested to see how long these things last. I’m thinking ‘a while’.
