Wrangler Riggs Workwear Mens Ranger Work Utility Pants

These work pants are tough and comfortable. The fabric feels durable without being stiff, and they hold up well for long workdays. The fit is relaxed but still functional, with plenty of pockets for tools and essentials. Great for outdoor work, construction, or everyday wear if you want something sturdy and reliable. A solid choice for work pants!

I think these might be the best pair of pants I own. I purchased 3 of them in different colors and I'm very happy with my purchase. From the look and styling, to the material and their durability, I think Wrangler hit a home run with these. I bought these for work. But these are definitely a pair of pants you can wear on a casual night out and still look spiffy. The price is on point. And for the money I think the bang for the buck is unbeatable. Fit is true to size. The waist is not really stretchy so If you prefer a little give in the waist of your pants order a size or 2 up. I find these pants to be extremely comfortable. I can bend, kneel, squat and do any number of movements without restrictions. Other pants typically get hung up on the knees for example if you squat. These are plenty roomy and don't feel claustrophobic. You retain a natural range of motion in them. They are thick and feel like you can weather the apocalypse in these but because of the design you have room to breathe so there's no overheating in them. I love these pants.

I was in the market for a good, strong, hiking and trail pant. Most of the options I came across were too heavy, not durable enough, or didn't have the right pockets. I research, but rarely purchase, clothing online, but these weren't on any shelves in my area so I took the risk and ordered a pair through Amazon, thanks to a "no-fee" return offer on them at the time. Though that guarantee turned out to be a bit of a hassle I was very pleased with the purchase and ended up with three pairs, one of each color. Here is my overall analysis: Pros: 1) The pants are lighter and more breathable than I expected. I have other double-knee pants; they are quite heavy. However, these are made of a durable but lightweight cotton weave that breathes very well. Considering all of the extra pockets and associated material (including Cordura-lined back pockets) I was shocked at how light the pants were. They represent the pants as being rip resistant ("Ripstop" as they say) and while I haven't seen them handle a rip, I am inclined to believe their claim. The particular weave of the cotton suggests that they would be hard to tear. 2) Good pockets and belt loops. The pockets are strong, well-stitched, and located in the right places. The front hip pockets are deep and made of very strong cotton. Not the thin white cotton found in jeans, these are almost canvas-like; very reliable. As I said above, the rear pockets have thick Cordura on the inside as the lining. I am confident that my shop pencil or combination square will not easily rip through as it has with my work jeans. The cargo pockets only have fullness on the rear seam, which is smart (the front seam lies flat, which prevents brush from catching easily while on the trail). They area large enough and close with durable snaps that can be opened one-handed, but don't pop open on their own. No buttons to fumble with or weak velcro patches. There is also a cell phone pocket (maybe a little small for some), an exterior "pliers" cargo pocket, and a hammer loop; all on the right side, so Southpaws beware. The "patented tape measure patch" is kind of a gimmick as it isn't very thick leather and doesn't actually run on the inside of the pocket at all, which is where my tape always grabs and pulls. It covers the outside and the fold at the top of the pocket, but that's it. It's not bad, just doesn't really solve the tape pinching "dilemma." The seven decent belt loops (including an extra wide center loop in the back) are well-spaced and provide good support and allow ample space for useful additions like binoculars, a flashlight, or a knife (yes, even a belt holster for those who are so inclined). 3) Serious stitching All of the major seams are triple stitched. All of the secondary ones are double and pretty serious. Most of the single-stitched are not high tension seams (just fullness and folds it seems) and look sturdy. Also the thread is of good quality. See "Cons" below for a side note. 4) Relatively Reasonable Price I paid [...] per pair (w/ free shipping and return shipping) on Amazon. Wrangler would sell direct at a little cheaper ($37 each I think) with free shipping on orders over $100. But of course, the return shipping would've been on me. So I went with Amazon. That's cheaper than Carhartts and these pants are lighter, have better pockets, and are better for hiking. However, I recently found these on a shelf at our local hardware mega-center (Menard's, for those who know it) at around $30 per pair. That's a screaming deal. So look for them. You might be able to find a local retailer by going to [...]. Cons: 1) Be aware - Waist measurements seem to be on the low side. I was thankful for the free return shipping deal, since the pants seem to run on the small side for their waist measurements. All of my other pants are 33s, but for these I needed a 34 to feel comfortable. And no, it wasn't merely wishful thinking on my part, the pants really do run tight in the waist. 2) Made in Mexico If you're a "Made in the USA" person, these won't fulfill that criteria. But judging by the quality, Wrangler made it clear they wanted good workmanship. If you're simply sick of substandard products from overseas, especially China, these aren't that. Not even close. 3) A couple of single-stitch runs might not hold up. Here and there, I have found a few stitching errors. Thread tails, needle burps, even one unfinished end. But all of them were in non-critical places. All in all, on three pairs I found 5 or 6 errors TOTAL. I don't know if you can do better than that for assembly-line clothing. 4) The free return shipping required a call to Amazon...twice. Despite the "automatic" nature of the free return shipping offer from Amazon, both of the pairs that I returned resulted in a return shipping charge on the return amount. This required a call to an Amazon Support rep both times to have return shipping refunded to me as well. The reps were friendly, quick to reverse it, and noted that the return should have been automatic. But since it wasn't twice, it was obviously not something they were going to fix. Realizing that this is not really relevant to the product itself, i did not figure in this factor when giving the four star rating. Nonetheless, you should know it for your own decision. Overall, very pleased with the purchase. Good, sturdy pants with nice features at a competitive price. They aren't Carhartts, but I didn't really want Carhartts or to pay Crahartt prices . I wish I had waited and bought it locally for the reduced price, but at the time this was as good a deal as I could find.

Boy oh boy, was I skeptical about ordering PANTS online. I wear a 35 x 30... yea, I'm kinda built like a brick... a not-too-tall brick, so I never buy pants without trying them on first. So I was more than a little pleasantly suprised to find a pair of extremely well-built, comfortable, and well-fitting cargo pants that even look pretty good on me. (I say pretty good cause, lets face it, with my body type I'll never be in an Old Spice commercial) I got several comments on these jeans the first day I wore them to work! (Yes, by women...) I thought I would point out a few things about these pants that aren't mentioned in the Amazon description: The Best! If you actually do some PHYSICAL LABOR at your jobsite, you most likely wear a knife with a side pocket clip. I usually put mine in my front right pocket in the corner. I have lost count of how many pockets I have worn completely out, and how many good knives I have lost, by constantly taking my knife out and putting it back to that spot. These pants have nice piece of leather in that exact spot!!! And its not overly thick so my knife is still easy to take out and put back in my pocket. Truly Awsome! The pant sizes have more variety. What I mean is most pant sizes go from a 34" waist to a 36" waist... I have always been cursed with being right in the middle. The 34 was a little too tight, and the 36 was just too baggy. 35" is just right! Riggs is made by Wrangler so maybe that is how all their jeans are. Whatever the case my be, Thank You! I have owned several pairs of Carhartt cargo work pants... I don't want to say anything bad about their product, because I really do believe they make a great pair of jeans, BUT... Their pants have always been tailored to a slimmer build, and there are a lot of guys like me who will just never fit into that particular cut. Has anyone out there ever spent more than a few hours bucking bales of hay? If you have then you have probably worn out the thighs of either the right or left legs, maybe both! These pants are DOUBLE LAYERED over the thighs. I haven't put them through the ringer yet, but I believe these pants will take a lot hay bales before they will even come close to wearing out. Minor con The only thing I have that is not completely complimentory about these pants are the pockets. I love the number and placement of all the pockets, but the front hip and rear pockets are very deep. This is more a personal preference than any real flaw in the product. A lot of it has to do with the fact that I ALWAYS where a watch, and it makes it a little awkward to dig into my pocket. I also cary a golfers wallet (yea, I'm an enigma) so its also a bit of an adjustment digging it out of my back pocket. In summary, I really can't say enough great things about these Riggs cargo pants. I feel like a was stretching a little bit about the pockets, but I base a lot of my Amazon purchases on customer reviews and I thought I owed it to everyone else looking for a product like this to give as much information as I could. (And I hope my spelling was close!)

Really love these pants. Have had these for 6 months, but I feel these will last me years. Very durable, thick, comfortable, but maybe heavy for some people. I use these as an everyday pants, for hiking, or for working. The pockets and storage are great, it’s like a backpack for your legs. I did go a size up, after reading reviews. Would definitely purchase again.

Comfortable, plenty of pocket space, and they fit really well (and look pretty good) on my tall, wide-hipped frame. Easily my most robust pair of pants (other than som Cold War-era milsurp fatigues) by a long shot - a very refreshing change after buying several pairs of other "heavy duty" and "tactical" pants that gave out after a year or less. Lesson learned - lot of brands are just expensive nsmes, but Wranglers are still apparently interested in making durable work wear. Also? They're thick and rigid and they feel like wearing some sort of material between cardboard and canvas, and somehow I find that extremely comfortable. They don't get sweaty or stick to me when I'm working in the summer, and they're plenty warm for the colder months, too. Buying a second pair after I write this review.

Edit: there is clearly a sizing issue. These pants have nice pockets and seem durable but the 36 waist is too small and the 38 is too big. Also I think the 30in length is way longer than it should be. Most of the time 30in is on the shorter side for me and these are long if I pull them past my belly button. I guess that’s what you get for paying $23 on sale, they must be pawning off bad sized product. Would be 5 stars if the fit was consistent. They were just a but tight in the waist and hip causing a pinch. I had to order a size up (which is 2 sizes between 36 and 38). I was disappointed because I have their ATG hiking cargo pants that fit perfectly at size 36. I don’t know if it’s a quality control issue or sizing difference between product lines, but the pants seem high quality otherwise.

I've only worn them once, but the pants appear very durable and are of good quality. I like the ripstop material as it dries quickly. If weight indicates quality, these pants weigh 888 grams or 1.9 lbs. Maybe the weight can be used to compare other pant choices. The waist sizing is weird on me. I normally wear 32" waist pants, but these 32 " pants are too tight. However, the 33" waist pants are too big and I cannot pull them down over my hips. Maybe it's my body. The relaxed fit makes them comfortable, allowing free body movement. I like the pant's cargo pockets, and they are quite large. I recommend these pants for anyone doing outdoor work, but be mindful of the waist sizing. I noticed that many reviews do not show ripstop, but other fabrics.
