This year at SEMA, Red Kap had a display and one of the items was a slightly different style of work/shop pants. I've been waiting since then for them to become available and now they are, so I bought some to try.
Up till now, I've been wearing the Dickies double knee pants with the phone pocket. They've worked well, but the Red Kaps are, for me, better.
Red Kap put the knee patch a bit lower so when you do have to kneel the seam isn't were you hit. They have a utility pant type pocket on the left leg and a carpenter type side pocket on the right. There are no exposed buttons or snaps, they're made of a combination cotton and synthetics and they are roomy enough to be cool on hot days. So, for those of you who wear long pants, I'd suggest giving these a try.

My work attire is, a golf shirt in a solid color, these pants, a buckleless belt, and water proof shoes, with a ball cap. I try to dress like my clients might if they were working on their own cars, the idea is to look competent but not like everyone else.
