Our wardrobes are all chocked full of garments taken from sports or jobs that we don’t play or do. There are some days where I go out dressed as a railroad worker on his way to pitch against the Yankees. Amongst all this, painter pants have got to be up there with one the most sampled items of profession-based clothing – the amen break of clothes if you will.

Having owned many a pair of these (without ever lifting a paint brush) it’s been a while since I’ve seen a better pair than these denim beauties from orSlow. Made in Japan and constructed from 100% cotton 14 Oz. denim with a one-year wash finish, these have a relaxed fit, hammer loop, tool pocket, 2 side-entry front pockets, and 2 rear pockets. Everything you need to complete your workwear-enthused look or actually paint some your new apartment.
