Dickies Men's Big-Tall Long Sleeve Cotton Coverall

I had to buy a M, XL, and L before I found the size that fit best. As has been written by other reviewers, the sizing can be difficult. I wear a L in Dickies blended fabric coverall, which is more of a fitted fit on me, but these are roomier. I am 6’ 2”, 210 pounds, with a 34 waist, 42 chest, and an athletic build. The medium fit more like the blended large. It was a little snug and was hard to get off of my shoulders, but the length was perfect. I was worried about the shrinkage after washing so I went up to the next available size, XL. The XL was huge and baggy, especially in the waist. I finally found the L on Amazon and I’m glad I did. The large fits big enough to allow for jeans and a thin sweatshirt underneath. I thought that it would shrink more after the first washing in hot water, but I only noticed a slight change in the overall length in the legs and sleeves. Great, thick fabric that should last for many years.

These seem to run a little large. I bought medium, I'm about 5'11", 155 lbs, slim-ish fit build and these are loose and a little baggy. If I were wearing them over regular clothes- jeans and a shirt, then the fit would be fine. If you're my height but pushing over 180-190 lbs with a gut, you might find a medium a little too snug. Get the large and hem them.The sleeve length is fine but I had to hem the legs up about 4 inches. I normally wear about a 31-32" inseam so these have about a 36" inseam. As they're 100% cotton they shrank a little when I washed them but not too much. They've worn in and are very soft and comfortable. Durable like denim, but soft.In addition to the regular front pockets there are 2 slots on the front hips that give access to the inside so you can get in to the pockets of whatever you're wearing under them. Those slots don't have any buttons or other closures so if you're wearing just underwear under, you might find yourself a little exposed. I planned to use these as protection when I worked my bee hives but with those pocket slots wide open and potentially giving thousands of stinging insects direct access to my genitalia, I might re-think that, or sew them shut.

I have a couple pairs of the dickies blended coveralls (polyester/cotton) very scratchy and do not seem to breathe well (in my opinion and i have washed them 7-8 times). These coveralls i washed once the night i got them and after trying them on right out of the dryer i fell asleep on the couch warm and toasty LOL. Zipper is really nice, big tooth metal thing. Cuffs on the sleeves are heavy duty, when you try to fold them back once they are a pain but when you fold them again the fold back perfectly. So i assume that's what they were meant to do.FIT: Large-TallI am about 200lbs - 6'2 tall. I'm not a meat head, a triathlon runner or a beer drinkin' couch potato. I'm your average guy who enjoys working on the house on the weekend. I ordered a LARGE-TALL because its not baggy in the mid section but i also don't end up with a painful wedgie from my *ss to my b*lls every time i reach over my head.Only "problem" is the legs and arms are a bit long. Which is VERY unusual for me as i wear about a 35-36 waist at 34 length (if i can find them that long). I'm happy tho, for the first time i my life i can cuff my pants if i want to which kinda fits the old school gas station mechanic thing you have going on with these. I assume they are made to wear some layers underneath that's why they have some extra slack. I live in Florida tho, so no layers going on.The ONLY thing i wish they had... wish any damn coveralls had is an arm pocket for a pen (like a flight suit). Putting anything in the breast pocket will cause it to fall out when you lean over unless it has a clip on it. There is a long pocket on the leg that might work but i am leery of getting stabbed in the leg so i have not tried it yet (they call it a ruler pocket, i assume for a reason).

I ordered this to wear over my clothing when I'm working from home. This way I can dress nicely for when I go out, but be warmer when I'm at home. I purposely got this one because it's 100% cotton so I won't get overheated and sweaty.I am 5'10", 160lbs and ordered a size medium. Wearing slim jeans and an oxford shirt underneath, this coverall feels like it's almost a little too tight at the crotch; as in the shoulder to crotch distance is too small. It's tolerable, though. The shoulders/back feel a little tight too. The arms are about 4 inches too long and the legs are about 6-8 inches too long. But they're all easy to roll up.I might get another one of these for working in the garage.Pros:-Warm but not sweat-inducing.-Cheap.-Nice looking!Cons:-A little small in some ways.-A little big in some other ways.

I have a bunch of Dickies workwear: High-Quality, super-durable, versatile gear at a lower price-point than some workwear brands. I actually bought these coveralls a while ago and I wear them all the time. They’ve gotten cooler with age, btw, as they’ve begun to conform to the shape of my body, fit like a second skin. Dickies stuff just looks cool too. I love it. I want to buy coveralls in some of the other colors too.
