With an obvious and apt nod to workwear, Dickies and Union Made’s recent collaboration perfectly blends the two brands. At first glance, the sturdy pants are Dickies, but thanks to a slightly slimmer, detail-oriented finish, they’re equally representative of SF-based Union Made’s vibe. The cut-off hems and embroidery add a little extra character to these coral-hued chinos.

From the green Italian webbing interwoven with flex, to the drum-dyed nappa leather trim and leather-wrapped buckle, every component of artist André Saraiva’s collaborative range with Beltology represents the most premium choice in its category.
