I ALWAYS read the reviews before I buy anything online but I thought "hey, they're Dickies.  I've bought these before so I know they're good quality regardless of who sells them."  The quality is indeed great, but they do run really big.  For me, almost 2 sizes too big.  I ordered based on the size chart specifically labeled "Dickies" and ordered a bit small compared to what the chart said.  The chart said I should be a size 16 but what actually fit was a 10.  I suggest trying them on immediately and exchange as necessary. Remember, Amazon usually provides free shipping and free returns/exchanges.
