"Hubby loved the weight, fit and durability. Said it needed a few more pockets. I got them as a gift for him so when he went to order himself a 2nd pair he had sticker shock. Said that was way too much to pay for a pair if pants he was going to mess up after a few wears."

We've slightly reworked our fit on the Union Work Pants. The classic slim-to-straight-fit feels great for a work pant like these, with the slight taper below the knee. We'd say the waist on these run true-to-size. However, if you have any question on what size to order, please reach out to us before placing your order.

14oz duck cotton canvas
you may have heard us mention duck canvas before, or maybe even have one of our past pieces. we've used cotton duck, like our Union Work Pants or Mechanic Jacket, for all sorts of daily trades. changing oil on bikes. camping. nailing up james hardie lap siding on the house. sanding fiberglass. you name it. cotton duck is so damn versatile. and it truly breaks in like a dream fabric. one of our favorites by far.
"Iron and Resin knows plenty when it comes to making remarkably long-lasting gear that can tolerate just about anything — from a long day on the job to a motorcycle-driven road trip to hour upon hour of fall and winter chores (hey, that firewood won’t chop itself). The Union Work Pant can stand up to all of those tasks and more, what with its dependable 14oz. Cotton canvas and double-knee reinforcement. Add in a double-layer rear leg cuff — an unheard-of touch on most pants — and you’ve got a set of trousers that can work … and work." -Gear Moose

Reviews
"Perfect working pant I was looking for. Modern to slim fit, great quality and not so expensive on the wallet. Only downfall is the length. You cant pick for your height."
Sturdy, stylish and comfortable,for now
"Sturdy, stylish and comfortable,for now I'm enjoying them in everyday city life, but they would make perfect "working" pants for a heavy gardening, or any other outdoor activity. They seem to fit just a tad larger than the stated size, but it's not a bad thing"
Great work pants
"Appreciate how sturdy the pants are and the fit."
indestructible
"These pants are incredibly well built, nice to finally find a company that makes clothes to last."
Well-fitting, Heavy Duty Pants
"It's next to impossible to find sturdy work pants that are also stylish; I can wear these to work to take a beating or throw a pair of cap toe oxfords on with a white henley and be ready for an evening out. I only put that they run small because the waist is tighter than standard Levi's or carhartt pants, but they will eventually form to you if they are a little right around the waist."
"These are my second parent a different color. Absolutely love the fit and quality of these pants. Highly recommend them"
Tough as nails
"I wore these work pants to work today. I work in an office but they percormed well. They are triple stitched in places and have a double layer on the front of the thigh. They seem very sturdy. I like them."
"My favorite new pants. Love them so much that I am buying a 2nd pair in a different color."
Great pant.
"Fantastic pant. True to actual waist size, not your vanity fit"
