FLEX Relaxed Fit Work Shorts, 11"
The verdict
Fit
Relaxed fit means room through the seat and thigh; true to waist size, and the FLEX fabric should add some give without changing the loose cut.
Quality
A best-seller at this price point, suggesting dependable everyday construction, though stretch fabrics generally trade some abrasion resistance for comfort.
Price check
$24.99 is budget-tier and a fair price for a stretch work short without added features like extra pockets.
Best for
Someone who wants comfort and mobility in a basic work short at a low price.
Care
Wash cold to protect the stretch fibers from breaking down with heat over time.

What owners report about Dickies shorts
Owner reviews on retailer pages split into two camps. Many describe the shorts as durable and long-wearing, with one longtime buyer calling them 'the best work shorts on the market' that 'stand the test of time' through regular use, and noting they take many washes before fading becomes noticeable. Others report the opposite: zippers failing after only a few wears, seams tearing out at the seat, and sizing that varies noticeably between pairs of the same marked size.
- Strengths
- Long-term durability and comfort in daily wear are the most repeated praise, with several owners saying a pair lasted years without issue.
- Watch out for
- A recurring complaint is zipper failure after light use, plus some reports of seams tearing at the seat and sizing that varies between pairs.
- Sizing
- Sizing isn't fully consistent pair to pair — one owner said a marked size fit closer to two sizes down — so checking recent buyer comments before ordering is worth it.
