Men's Work Pants Fit Guide
Finding the right fit for your next pair of men's work pants can mean the difference between a productive day on the job and struggling to keep up with the rest of the crew. Our men's pant sizes range from 28 x 28 all the way up to 54 x 36 and are thoughtfully constructed from durable materials with essential features engineered specifically for hardworking people so that you can be more comfortable and productive.
Our slim tapered work pants sit just above the waist with a closer fit from the mid-thigh to the hem and are ideal for work environments where snagging is a concern. Featuring our signature Rugged FlexTM material that combines the durability of duck with enough stretch to help maintain your full mobility, these more structured tapered pants won't hold you back.
Relaxed straight work pants sit just below the waist and are roomier around the seat and thigh with a straight leg from the mid-thigh to the hem. Also available in a relaxed taper, these durable work pants strike a perfect balance of comfort, looks, and functionality that won't restrict your movement.
For maximum mobility, loose straight work pants sit slightly above the waist and provide a generous fit around the seat and thigh with a straight leg from the mid-thigh to the hem. 100% cotton denim on select styles offer that classic Carhartt feel that gets even better as it's broken in over time.
No matter which men's work pants fit you best, finding the right combination of materials and features is easy with the selection available from Carhartt. From double-front to carpenter and beyond, we've got the durable men's pants you need to work smarter on the job, off the clock, and everywhere in between.
What is the difference between Carhartt loose fit vs. relaxed fit work pants?
Relaxed Fit
Seat & Thigh: Roomier than slim but not oversized. Designed to provide extra comfort without feeling baggy.
Leg Opening: Straight or slightly tapered. Either cut fits easily over work boots.
Feel: A good balance between mobility and a cleaner silhouette.
Best For: Everyday wear and jobs that require movement but where you don't want extra fabric increasing the likelihood of snags.
Loose Fit
Seat & Thigh: Cut generously through the hip, seat, and thigh.
Leg Opening: Straight and wide. Designed to go easily over heavy work boots.
Feel: Prioritizes mobility and comfort above all.
Best For: Heavy-duty jobs that involve a lot of climbing, bending, and crouching.
