EXCELLENT black pants for my teen's school uniform

These are the excellent durability of typical Dickie work pants. I ended up getting a few pairs of these Dickie work pants (black) for a school uniform, they are superb. BTW, a tiny trick for parents of uniform students: To have these pants 'truly' black, simple remove the two red "Dickie" brand tags. To do this EASY and not wreck the pants, I use a sharp pair of small scissors and then open them to use one side. I then use that side and make a gentle sawing motion against the threads that hold the back pocket/knee emblem on. I keep the pants TAUGHT so they are never slack, ensuring I keep the scissors blade at a flat (90%) angle the the pants (so the blade is absolutely flat to the fabric of the TAUGHT pants) and the sawing motion cuts the threads enough that I can pull up on the label and keep cutting knowing I am ONLY cutting the label threads. Once the small label is off I simply remove the thread leftovers from the back/front and it is totally GONE. On my second pair (an older pair) I was not cautious about keeping the fabric TAUGHT and I cut into the black fabric a little. Now that I am aware and keep the fabric stretched (pants are not being worn, BTW) I have had perfect success.I really needed an odd size you CANNOT get in stores (31x32) and Amazon is a great source (as usual).
