Talk:Dickies

Untitled
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."

Still, all info about them comes from Dickies, even the businesswire bit is a mere press release. I found out today from Dickies own customer service people that they don't manufacture any boots any more, Kodiak does, in China. Funny, you didn't read that on the Dickies site. You can buy different widths of boots from people Kodiak supplies, but not from the Dickies website. Dickies as a company now is out of the boots business in essence, Kodiak handles the manufacturing so completely that they don't even supply the Dickies own website with different widths? It's a fact confirmable with a call to their customer service. If it was in writing I could get it on the man page. Jackhammer111 (talk) 05:30, 11 January 2013 (UTC)
