The Gramicci Overdyed Hickory Work Pant in Navy draws on the industrial strength of 19th-century rail gear to provide a durable and heritage-inspired utility staple. These trousers use a 10oz hickory stripe fabric—traditionally praised for being as strong as hickory wood—to ensure long-lasting wear in demanding environments. Featuring a unique overdyed finish and the brand's iconic integrated belt, they bridge the gap between functional fieldwork and modern streetwear, offering a robust and comfortable fit that handles everything from the workshop to the city.

Key Features

• Crafted from a heavy-duty, 100% cotton striped denim known for its exceptional resistance to tears and abrasions.
• The fabric has been overdyed to provide a deep, complex navy tone that subtly mutes the traditional white stripe for a more versatile, modern aesthetic.
• Equipped with Gramicci’s iconic built-in belt and easy-adjust buckle, allowing for one-handed fit adjustments on the fly.
• Designed with a generous array of six pockets, providing ample storage for tools, hardware, or everyday essentials.
• Features a flexible waist construction to ensure all-day comfort, whether you are crouching on a trail or sitting at a desk.
• Cut with a spacious silhouette through the leg to allow for unrestricted movement and a classic utilitarian drape.
• Built with heavy-duty stitching at key stress points to ensure these pants live up to their "strong as wood" reputation.

At Urban Industry we recommend / Ideal For

• The primary choice for those who need trousers that can handle the rigours of manual work while maintaining a clean look.
• The 10oz denim provides the necessary protection against falls, while the relaxed fit allows for full leg extension.
• Ideal for fans of "Americana" and vintage railroad attire who want a modernised, wearable version of a classic fabric.
• The breathability of 100% cotton paired with rugged durability makes these a great alternative to standard hiking trousers.

Our Style, Fit & Sizing Recommendations

• These pants are designed with a roomy cut through the seat and thighs, tapering slightly toward the ankle for a contemporary profile.
• We recommend taking your standard size. The elasticated waist and integrated belt provide a significant amount of flexibility in the fit.

Washing & Care Instructions

• Use a cool cycle to preserve the deep overdyed navy tones and the integrity of the 10oz cotton.
• As with all overdyed garments, some initial colour bleed may occur; launder separately or with coloured items for the first few washes.
• Avoid the tumble dryer to prevent shrinkage and to protect the hardware of the integrated belt.
• Do not bleach - Harsh chemicals will strip the overdyed finish and weaken the heritage hickory fibres.

Gramicci Overdyed Hickory Work Pant - Our FAQs

1. Will the stripes become more visible over time?
   Yes, as the overdyed navy finish naturally fades with wear and washing, the classic hickory stripe will slowly become more prominent, creating a unique patina.

2. Are these as heavy as standard jeans?
   At 10oz, these are a perfect "mid-to-heavyweight" denim. They are tough and substantial without feeling as stiff or restrictive as a 14oz raw denim.

3. Can I use my own belt with these?
   These pants feature the signature integrated belt which is sewn into the waistband. While you don't need your own belt, the system is designed to be the most comfortable and secure way to wear them.

4. Is the "Hickory" fabric soft?
   While it is very strong, the overdyeing and washing process helps to break the fabric in, so they feel comfortable from the very first wear.
