So last year i bought 2 of the very expensive (£80 each) pairs of snickers work trousers, the ones that are ripstop and partialy made of kevlar. Im a bit dissapointed with these types of trousers as the restrict my movment hoping up and down on baths and stuff. I stipp prefer an old pair of jogging bottoms tbh, Wish someone would design a pair of joggies with knee pad inserts and deep pockets!!

A carpenter that was working on one of my jobs paid about £60 for his snickers. They ripped after 2 weeks. He rang the shop and they said bring them back and they will send them off to snickers for investigation. If they are faulty then he will get a new pair FOC.

I was looking at the Dunlop work trousers in Sports Direct for £24.99. I don't need any yet, but when I felt them they seemed strong.

good idea sean! my only problem with joggies is that they can look unprofessional, i do think image is a big thing imo. I would never wear my joggies when going out to price the job

I used to wear snickers on site and really rated them. I always had to buy a size up over my normal clothes though, they were rather fitted.

Either that or I'm a complete bloater.

I posted a thread the other day regarding Scruff's pros on a deal. I had said the same about Snickers. They ain't what they are cracked up to be.

Scruffs do these. Like joggies with knee pad pockets

They also do Active fit ones which are much lighter than the pro's but heavier than the joggies

I've never tried them so don't blame me lol. Scruffs gear are good though. That's what I wear & I've tried most out there. Don't buy them straight from Scruffs site though. They are pretty expensive. Search about. You may get a few quid off!

Snickers rnt worth the money in my opinion , the last 2 pairs I've had we're the floor layers ones and both zips went in them plus they r not comfortable , when you buy your normal size they just ride up your leg or if you buy an extra size the knee pads never seem to be in right point of contact when your on the floor! Going to try dickies or other next week

Give the Scruffs Trade or Pro's ago. I think there great! I've tried Dickies, Durakit, Panoply & Snickers & found these the best

 

[peteablard]

Snickers every time for me, would pay twice the price as I find them so comfy. Well maybe not twice the price but you get the picture!!

I wear Dickies Eisenhower ones. I find them quite comfy & durable for around £30 a pair.

I cheat, at the moment I am using Dickies trousers with a Snickers belt.:lol:

 

[Bubblecraft]

Bet the belt cost as much as the trousers lol
