Dickies

Dickies Apparel & Workwear in Australia at Fast Times

Built for work and adopted by skaters, Dickies has been a staple in skate culture since long before it was fashionable. Founded in 1922, the brand built its reputation on durable workwear construction and no-nonsense design. Fast Times stocks a wide range of Dickies apparel in Australia, available online and in store in Melbourne, covering pants, shorts, shirts, jackets, headwear and accessories.

Dickies Pants: 874, 873, 872 & More

Dickies pants are the core of the brand and among the most trusted in skateboarding. The 874 Original Work Pant is the most iconic style, a straight-leg twill pant available at Fast Times in black, khaki, charcoal, dark brown and bone. The 873 Slim Straight and 872 Slim Tapered offer cleaner, more fitted silhouettes for those after a more tailored look. The Loose Fit Double Knee 85-283 is a skate favourite, available in all black, dark brown and light indigo, with reinforced knees built to handle the punishment of skating. The Loose Fit 247 Pant and Garyville Denim round out the bottoms range alongside the Relaxed Fit Carpenter Jean in light indigo, rinsed black and stone washed indigo.

Dickies Shorts

Fast Times stocks Dickies shorts in both the 13in and 15in Twill Multi Pocket styles, available in black and dark navy. Built on the same tough twill construction as the work pants, Dickies shorts are a practical and versatile option for skating in warmer months.

Dickies Shirts & T-Shirts

The Dickies apparel range at Fast Times includes the 1574 Short Sleeve Shirt in black and charcoal, the Maple SS Shirt in rinsed moss, and a selection of t-shirts including the Heavy Jersey Pocket Tee, Mapleton, Philipsburg and High Speed styles. The Heavy Jersey Pocket Tee is a particularly popular choice, built on a heavier cotton weight with a clean, minimal design that pairs easily with the work pants range.

Dickies Jackets

The Dickies Unlined Eisenhower Jacket is one of the most recognisable pieces in the workwear canon. A lightweight cotton twill jacket with a clean utility silhouette, the Eisenhower has been worn by skaters and workers alike for decades. Available at Fast Times in charcoal.

Dickies Headwear

Fast Times stocks a range of Dickies headwear including the Essential Dad Strapback, Hardwick 6 Panel, Hardwick Duck Canvas 6 Panel, Curved Peak Logo Trucker, Dad Denim Strapback in vintage aged blue and rinsed, and the Classic Label Beanie in black. A solid range of everyday caps and beanies built to the same workwear standard as the rest of the range.

Dickies Bags, Accessories & More

Beyond apparel, Dickies produces a practical range of bags and accessories. Fast Times stocks the Duck Canvas Backpack, Stretton Student Backpack, Basic Courier Bag, Standard Crossbody Bag and Baylor Crossbody Bag, all in black. The Duck Canvas Wallet, New Eyelet Belt and Classic 3 Pack Rib Singlets in black and white round out the accessories offering.

Why Do Skaters Wear Dickies?

Dickies earned its place in skate culture through durability, affordability and a relaxed fit that works for skating. The heavy twill construction handles grip tape and slams better than most apparel brands, and the clean, unfussy design means Dickies pieces work with almost anything. The 874 in particular has been a skate wardrobe staple for decades and shows no sign of going anywhere.
