WILLIAM CARMONA

William Carmona, the heritage boot enthusiast behind bespoke shoemaking service Willie’s Shoe Restoration Services, prefers the 874 Work Pants for its practical durability as he spends most of his working hours in his studio.

“It’s always dusty in our shop since we sand every day. I would wear something comfortable clothes that easily brush off dust,” he shares. “I look at fabric that’s thick. I look at work pants like the 874.”

SELINA WOO BHANG

For Selina, the 874 Work Pants offer the flexibility she looks for in between her modeling work and time spent in the studio. “My personal style really reflects who I am. I don’t really go for something trendy, I want something comfortable at the end of the day,” she shares. Cut in an original straight leg fit with mid-waist.

AL JAMES

Al James fondly remembers hip hop’s affinity for work wear, particularly Dickies. The cult appeal has made its way into his style, where he regularly sports the 874s for its utility. “For me, I go with what’s simple as long as it’s comfortable,” the 30-year-old artist says.
