Dickies Arriving Soon in India

The story begins in 1918 when founding partners C.N. Williamson and E.E. “Colonel” Dickie started out in the hat-making business. By 1922, they shifted to outfitting workers. This tough tailoring would influence service-industry clothing and, eventually, our streetwear. Crafted with indigo denim and hickory stripe, the Bib Overalls was the first product we ever sold, 100 years ago.

Originally crafted with heavy denim and button-up fronts, this icon was created to protect ‘street’ clothes at work.

The Dickies Eisenhower Jacket evolved from uniforms worn by American pilots during WW2. General Dwight D. Eisenhower appreciated the style so much he had it developed for American soldiers.

Thanks to its resilience and ease of movement, our work shirt has served workers, creators, and innovators alike. The 1574 is the go-to garment for getting the job done.

For over half a century, the Original 874 Work Pant has been the universal choice for tradespeople from all walks of life. Trusted for the durable cotton/poly twill construction that can survive scrapes on concrete, steel, timber and asphalt.

By the late 1970s, our work pants arrived in bold new colorways. And by the late 80s, they worked their way into streetwear circles as big-name rappers started wearing our styles.

Skaters soon picked up on our apparel’s hard-wearing nature, knowing it would survive a beating on asphalt. By the mid-1990s, the West Coast counter-culture had raised our streetwear credentials worldwide.

By the 2000s, we expanded into more than 100 countries, becoming a well-known streetwear and workwear brand worldwide.
