Women’s DOVETAIL Shop Pant
It’s a carpenter pant and a skater pant and a maker pant. But we just call it the Shop Pant.
Tons of functionality, but on the down low. Sitting slouchy and easy, the Shop Pant doesn’t scream “work pant.” But it’s got tons of pockets and it’s tough AF. Heavy-duty, washed-down denim is made even stronger with an infusion of nylon. But this is no normal nylon. Next-level sustainable nylon won’t shed microplastics when your pants go to die. For more, see FABRIC.
Fit Note: We designed the shop pant to be worn relaxed and slouchy. If you prefer a more fitted look, you may need to size down. It comes in 2 lengths, 32” and 30”. For a cool cropped ankle vibe, choose shorter than your typical inseam.
- Heavy weight denim
- Fabric weight: 12 oz
- Fabric content: 88% cotton/ 11% CiCLO® nylon/ 1% spandex
You got ’em dirty, now get ’em clean.
- Turn inside out.
- Wash cold.
- Hang dry. If you must tumble, tumble low to damp dry.
We get it’s tempting to wash those dirty pants in hot water and tumble dry the hell out of them. But like any high-quality tool, this one will last longer with TLC. Heat messes with our special stretch sauces and secret weatherizing potions. And it can shrink, warp, and otherwise damage the fine fabrics that make Dovetail Workwear sturdy, comfortable, and tough on the job. So for a long life, wash cold, and hang dry or tumble low. The planet will thank you too.

For high stretch fabrics, consider sizing down.

Perfect fit and amazing construction!
I really do love Dovetail! The Freshly overalls are my favorite ones. I’m only giving the shop pants 4 stars though because I think they could really use a little more room in the seat and thighs.
As it is, they feel a little bit tighter than I’d prefer, but are still the same excellent quality, utility, and style that I think of when it comes to Dovetail.
