Dickies Workwear for Tilers?

[One Day]

I bought those ones because of the Kevlar knee's, went though them in under 2 month's, worst buy ever. 🙁

Snickers floorlayers aren't kevlar knees - it's just cordura with a bit of kevlar in the mix and it doesn't last long if you're dragging your knees around on rough concrete!
If I'd gone through a pair in 8 weeks I'd be sending them back... Mine normally last a year or so - 2 pairs on rotation.

(Still the best knee pads / trouser combo though)

But I'm from West Belfast, I only bought them for the Kevlar in the knee section in case I got knee capped lol

Yup if I remember there's about one percent or less of Kevlar in them, bit of a gimmick tbh

Why does your location make a difference ?

yes, was 2 months laying floors. But if I was fixing wall tiles for 2 years to I would be happy with them as well😉

its a Belfast joke.
Sorry back on topic. I've two pair of snickers, the floor ones and the tanish coloured ones and both are good, maybe the tan ones are just a tad heavy, actually they weigh a ton

I got some Blaklader trousers a while ago. Similar to floorlayers but lighter cotton. They're great too.
