Trousers keep workers on their knees

Dickies has introduced 'Eisenhower Multi-Pocket Professional' trousers, for workers who kneel for any length of time.

These trousers feature pockets for tools and other items that are needed readily to hand.

The garment is made from a combination of 60% polyester and 40% cotton, enhanced by 'Nanotex', a technology that results in a fabric which is said to resist or repel stains. The trouser knee area, which takes the hardest of wear, incorporates pad enclosures made from 'Armortex', a fabric which uses a nylon or polyester base that is reinforced with 'Kevlar'brand fibre.

The trousers are strengthened by the use of Cordura, a fabric that is resistant to tearing, scuffing and abrasion.

Other features include: hammer loops, removable multi-pockets and kneepad pouches which accommodate Dickies knee pads and hem guards.
