Dickies

Williamson-Dickie Manufacturing Company, more commonly referred to as the brand Dickies, is an American company headquartered in Fort Worth, Texas that manufactures and sells work-related clothing and other accessories, including back packs, steel-toe boots, and belts. Its major competitors are Ben Davis and Carhartt.

Beginnings

C.N. Williamson and E.E. "Colonel" Dickie began their business careers in the "vehicle and harness" business in Bryan, Texas. In 1918, they and a few friends established the U.S. Overall Company. Then, in 1922, C. Don Williamson joined with his father and cousin to buy 100% of the overall company on a one-third-each basis and renamed it Williamson-Dickie Manufacturing Company.
From its early years, Williamson-Dickie enjoyed steady growth which was slowed only by the Great Depression, and during World War II, the company produced millions of uniforms for the nation's armed forces. In converting to civilian production after the war, C. Don Williamson began a strategy of geographical expansion and established new production facilities, warehouses, and sales territories throughout the United States. In the late 1950s, Williamson-Dickie became an international company by expanding into the European market and the Middle Eastern market - where Texas oilmen introduced the Dickies brand to Middle Eastern oil fields.

MEASURING FOR PROPER FIT

THE FOLLOWING GUIDELINES ARE IMPORTANT TO
REMEMBER IN MEASURING FOR PROPER FIT

Give all measurements in inches.
If the person's measurements are between sizes, order the larger size.
For example: if a man's neck measures 15 3/4 inches you should order size "large" in a short sleeve shirt or a "16-16 1/2" in a long sleeve shirt.
For greatest accuracy, have someone take measurements rather than allowing customers to measure themselves.
The tape measure should be pulled snug, not tight. Check the size scale of all garments being ordered to ensure that all measurements were taken at the proper points.




MEN'S SHIRTS
 
NECK measurement is the circumference of the neck as illustrated.
SLEEVE LENGTH is measured by placing one end of the tape at the bottom of the collar at the center of the back and marking the distance around the elbow to the bottom of the wrist. It is often helpful to have the arm slightly bent.
CHEST is taken at the fullest point of the bust, keeping tape under arms and around shoulder blades. Hold tape level and firmly but not tight.

MEN'S TROUSERS, JEANS AND BIB OVERALLS
 
WAIST is taken at the top of the hipbone over shirt (not over pants). Tape should only be held snug, do not hold tape tight.
INSEAM is taken from the base of the crotch to the top of the shoe or boot. For jeans, add one inch.
It is advisable to ask the person being measured how he or she wears their trousers. Not everyone wears their trousers or jeans the same length or height on their hips.

MEN'S COVERALLS
 
CHEST SIZE is taken at the fullest point of the chest, keeping tape under arms and around shoulder blades. This measurement should be taken over clothing, preferably over same garment or types of garments to be worn with the coveralls.
LENGTH We suggest using your same inseam measurement for pants, but subtracting 1 to 2 inches to accommodate Dickies lower crotch construction.

JACKETS
 
CHEST SIZE is taken at the fullest point of the chest, keeping tape under arms and around shoulder blades. This measurement should be taken over clothing, preferably over garments or types of garments to be worn with the jacket.
SLEEVE LENGTH is measured by placing one end of the tape at the bottom of the collar at the center of the back and marking the distance around the elbow to the outer edge of the wrist.
