UPDATE - I kept the 31 - 32 even though they are generously big. I like them so much I ordered a 29 x 32 hoping they would fit better. Please note I consistently wear a 32 x 34 in Levi and Wrangler. I see there are a few choices in color and although it should not be different sizing and construction we will see. The other pairs I ordered are the kacki. Previous post- Received Ariat Relaxed Workhorse Boot Cut pants and they were very very big. I normally wear a 32 x 34, weigh about 165, and 5' 10". There was a substantial amount of room throughout. The legs and waist were probably about 4 " in excess. Pants were well made and useable pockets to last all day long. I liked them so much that I ordered a 31 x 32 and will give that a try. I am looking forward to receiving them. Read more
These work pants are freakin awesome. They go over any boots, including the Ariat Midtown Rambler cowboy style boots. I ordered blue for bus driving. They do run ever so slightly big at the waist as people have mentioned. I normally wear a 34 waist so I ordered a 33 waist bc of what others said, and they fit quite snugly workout a belt. So I'm going to order a 34 waist next, which is my normal waist size, so I can tuck shirts in. The length is perfect. I'm 6'2", and the 33/32 is a perfect fit. Honestly just order whatever size you actually are and they will fit great. I'm not a fan of paying $130 but it's a small price to pay to get awesome pants that nobody else seems to offer. I'll be buying several more pairs bc it seems obvious, at least for now, that they are going to last forever. Read more
Previously owned a few of the Ariat FR jeans and really like the look of the jeans, the cotton is very soft and comfortable. The fact that those jeans would barely last me 5-6 months and being on the pricy side decided not to buy them anymore. Tried some different FR pants with extra pockets which I appreciate and they were OK. Than came across these and decided to give them a chance and boy am I happy with them now. Past few weeks and holding up pretty good, they look awesome, material is very sturdy it seem like I could get more than 6 months with these and for $100+tax I SURE HOPE SO!! Usually I can wear 38/34, or 38/32 and for some reason these pants in 34 lent were the longest I have ever bought so decided to return and buy 32 length and that was it. Waist is somewhat bigger than some other pants / jeans I have, but I like it. Overall I love the pants I'd probably end order some more in a near future. #Ariat, get them cheaper and people buy these they are absolutely worth checking out. Read more
They’re comfortable and fit larger than most pants I usually buy. They run large I’m a 30x32 but need to buy 28 or 29x32 as the 30s are way too big. They last a while if you take care of them in the washer but the quality has dipped a bit over the years and now only last 2-6 months. They are actually nice FR/cat2 rated pants that did not fuse to my skin when an arcing circuit tagged me so there is that. They’re expensive and wash well unless you get fire caulking or darker staining materials like moly grease or tar on them but they’re work pants that hold up alright and feel great. The stitching on the right front pocket where I keep my knife at does rip easily usually after a month and need to sew in back together to keep it from ruining the front right pocket from unstitching and ripping. Don’t keep screwdrivers face down in the right leg pockets and kneel down they will rip right through. Over all great pants, rather expensive but worth it if you’re required for FR/arc rated clothing you just need to take care of them Read more
Weirdly thick and canvas-ey. Think Carhartt not regular jeans. Good fit, Nice rise, sits at the belly button, maybe a little lower. Relaxed in the legs. Comfortable. I bought Grey and Flint. Grey fit well. Flint.....not as much. It was too tight. Read more
Absolutely one of the best pair of pants I’ve come across. I’m in the field welding and doing a lot of dirty work and these pants take the heat and the beat. Will continue buying but watch them prices Read more
They run smaller to size advertised. They look like they would breath well, but I won’t ever find out. Read more
The Ariat Men's FR M4 Workhorse pant provides a well made, presentable, and comfortable option for FR rated outer wear. The fit was exactly as described and the quality of manufacture is high. The pant is rugged enough for field work, but also provides an appearance that is acceptable in an informal office environment. The extra pockets found in this style of pant offers useful options for securing small tools or equipment. I would recommend these pants to anyone who has a need for FR rated outer wear and is looking for something different from the less formal and more commonly found FR rated denim work jean.
