Dickies Clothing Styles that Make Dickies Perfect for Both Work & Play

For active people, clothing needs to be a combination of versatile, stylish, durable and comfortable.  Many of our valued customers will spend the day at work and then immediately head out for a skate. They don’t want to take the time to stop home and change their clothes, and they don’t want to haul an extra set of clothes with them in the morning.  They want to live their lives and do what they do best, which is work hard and play hard without interruption.  


Dickies Clothing is a brand that allows for that lifestyle without any problems, hesitations or questions by those who wear it.  Empire Skate is proud to offer a full line of Dickies Clothing, and below we’re going to break down each category we provide to those who want the best that life has to offer, including when it comes to their gear.  We encourage you to take a look at what we have in our inventory, as we’re sure you’ll find several items that are a perfect fit for your needs and your desires. Happy browsing!

Dickies Clothing History

Many people know that Dickies Clothing dates back nearly 100 years in some form or fashion.  When the company got started in the 1920s, Dickies Clothing consisted primarily of overalls.  During the Great Depression, the Dickies brand moved towards lines of workpants, but that all changed once again when World War II came about.  In the first half of the 1940’s, Dickies Clothing focused on military uniforms, as did most American industries during those years.    


Things really took off in the 1950s, as oilfield workers wore Dickie’s Clothing, and many of them began to work in the Middle East with workers from different parts of the world.  At this point, Dickies Clothing as an overall brand expanded its reach to Europe and other markets, which in turn increased its demand. From there, Dickies Clothing took advantage of its new and growing geographic market reach to expand its clothing lines.  Specifically, the company expanded into the college market, the white-collar market, the women’s market and ultimately the casual market for young people. That’s where you’ll Dickies Clothing today – everywhere – and that’s because millions of people around the world have come to know and trust the company based on their own experiences.  

Dickies Pants

The line of Dickies pants is in itself a microcosm of the diversity of the company’s overall offerings.  Dickies pants are renowned for their durability, style and comfort, all of which are qualities that are consistent with Dickies Clothing in general.  Empire Skate is proud to offer a wide line of Dickies pants right here.

You should check back often, as our inventory is updated regularly, and you never know what you may find when you take a look at what’s here.  We’ll keep doing this because Dickies pants are durable, made with the highest-quality materials and they simply look good on the people who wear them.  Take a look and see for yourself.

Dickies Shorts 

As Dickies Clothing began to expand in market reach, its internal product development team, already used to changing course because of the company’s history with the Great Depression and World War II among other historical events, began to delve into the shorts market.  In the past 20 – 30 years, shorts have exploded in popularity, even becoming relatively commonplace in certain workspaces. Dickies shorts is a line of clothing we’re proud to offer here at Empire Skate, and below are just a few of the products we sell to our customers throughout the year:


  • Tulsa Regular Fit Cord Shorts
  • Kempton Regular Fit Shorts
  • 13” Loose Fit Work Shorts
