Workwear review, pants edition.

I’m making videos for the actual guy that works. Patagonia workwear, Truewerk and 1620 Workwear. I own a landscape company and work in the field every day. I have tried nearly every workwear brand out there. So I actually use these daily. Truewerk is currently my top dog. I will keep you posted on these 1620 double fronts. Clothing technology has passed up Carhartt, Dickies and all of those brands that you have to break in. Granted, Carhartts will last a long time, but why suffer when you don’t have to. Guys that work don’t have time to break pants in.

I’ve had my 1620’s for a good three years and still going strong.

[@lexislandscape8345]

After about a month of wearing the 1620’s, they are badass. Feel good out of the gate and seem bulletproof. But price and comfort I’m still a Truewerk guy. But this is just one normal guys opinion.

[@samjaramillo]

You should make a video on them

[@bquick80]

If you want a lighter option for warmer weather? Try a pair of the shop pants from 1620. Awesome pants!

[@1620Workwear]

Let us know when you need to re-up brother. We got you, thanks for this.

[@buschlattes7066]

[@porkeypie07]

Thank you for the video I enjoyed it

[@lakerlodgeoutdoors4012]

After a year how do you like the 1620’s? I’m Truewerk all the way but I’m always looking for better

[@lobbyrobby]

Any idea where the Truewerk pants are made. I a big fan of buying products made in the USA. I definitely want to try the 1620 pants but man they are expensive. However I do burn through work pants so maybe I'd save money if they last longer

[@lexislandscape8345]

Not sure where they are actually made. The labels say nothing. I can say this. My oldest pair is 3-4 years old and the only hole I have is from welding. They definitely aren't made for that. But the 1620's are pretty awesome. Best comparison i can make is 1620's are old school work pants with some cool upgrades. They do seem bulletproof. Truewerk is like pants an athlete would wear for performance. I love both. Maybe I'll do an updated video.

[@lobbyrobby]

@@lexislandscape8345 I bought a couple pairs of Truewerk. I haven't worn them enough to get an idea if I'll stick with them or not. They are comfortable but I don't like where the 2 front belt loops are placed. I like my pants a little big on me and then wear a belt. When I tighten the belt those 2 front belt loops basically get in the way of my belt buckle if that makes sense. Made in Bangladesh

[@jano8257]

Truewerk pants are made in Bangladesh.

[@charlesc7729]

Any update on the 1620s?

[@londealo392]

where can I order one of them?

[@douglasphillips24]

I strictly wear 1620 and the utility 2.0 are my favorite.

[@lexislandscape8345]

I am a year in with them. They are amazing pants. I actually added a new pair but you just aren't beating the comfort of Truewerk. And Truewerk seems to hold up just as well.

[@commiesarehorrible7622]

Just bought some 1620 pants. Have you noticed any shrinking from washing?

[@lexislandscape8345]

Not at all actually. I have to say I’m loving these!!!!!

[@ironbound1984]

My 1620 original utility pants from years ago didn’t shrink much at all and I wash them in hot water and they fit me great!! 32x34 , 6’ 180lbs.
Unfortunately The new 1620 utility 2.0 shrunk about 1-1/2 in the legs.

[@jcolt84]

How about kuhl? I bought the free ryder and I like them, but they may be too warm for summer.

[@lexislandscape8345]

I do like Kuhl. But I tend to use that for my after work clothes. Haha dress clothes if you will. But they do have great pants too!

[@ryanbraun2000]

Is washing the Truewerk finnicky? Tumble low, etc, etc. That drives me nuts.

[@pmtips4482]

I have the Truewerk T2 pants. Zero shrinkage but I wash in eco warm water and tumble dry low heat for about 10 minutes then hang them on a door hook to dry overnight.

[@WesternRAM]

Have you used the T1 truewerk? They're lighter than T2 and suppose to be great for hot weather! Im wondering if I should pull the trigger or not. I'm big into workwear too. I work outdoor construction year round.

[@lexislandscape8345]

Yes. Haha I have them. They are amazing. Not a huge difference but just enough.

[@lexislandscape8345]

Same here. Outside all year round. T3’s amazing for cold!

[@merpp4073]

I think Truewerk pants are awful. If you like wearing a bathing suit to work then they are perfect for you

[@WesternRAM]

@@merpp4073 what do you use?

[@jernardmathis54]

Are Truewerk true to size

[@lexislandscape8345]

I’d say so. Pretty spot on.

[@joelmoody3029]

I have the hoodie it is garbage! I
