Q: Do you see any significant industry workwear trends in the automotive industry developing? 

A: We’re seeing a shift away from the bold, striped garment that you’d see in the past. These stripes have been available for many years, so we’re seeing a transition now to a more sophisticated, modern look. It’s about making the uniform a little bit classier in appearance. We want Dickies workwear to reflect what our customers might choose to wear even off the clock. We’ve gotten some great feedback on our auto collection where we have updated our offerings with color blocking on the shoulder; various cuts and fits, all while ensuring the Dickies durability and comfort are guaranteed.
