This is one of the few articles on clothing companies that isn't a huge ad.
"Despite the fact that Dickies clothing has traditionally been worn by blue-collar workers, some white-collar urbanites—particularly hipsters—also consider items of Dickies clothing, usually the work pants, to be at least moderately "hip" fashion accessories."

[edit] the truth about dickies
I currently work at Dickies in Hanover Ontario Canada. The quality is just not what it used to be..... Skilled workers are hard to find because they simply don't pay enough!!! I work in the pressing department and am only paid about 13.5 cents per pair of pants I press!!! Simply not enough to care what kind of job I do. Dickies is a member of Local 175 (food processers and commercial workers) and are currently in contract negotions. Issues are better pay and benefits. So far no new contract has been accepted by its workers, as the current offer was turned down and a strike vote was recorded. This company threatens to move productions to Mexico where cheaper labour is available.
