Jeans
Most FR jeans have not caught up to proper fitting techniques, these are no exception. I have an odd shape (38/30). The legs on the jeans look like clown pants. Large waste does not translate into large legs.

Usage & Fit
- Fit Guide: The M4 is Ariat's most popular work fit. It features a low rise and is relaxed through the seat and thigh, offering more room than the M5 slim fit but less bulk than traditional loose fits.
- Sizing Note: 100% cotton denim may experience slight shrinkage; follow care instructions carefully. Order your standard jean size.
Ideal For
- Oil & Gas Workers: Provides necessary flash fire protection while fitting comfortably over mud boots.
- Electricians & Linemen: High ATPV of 20 cal/cm² offers substantial arc flash protection for energized work.
- Welders: Heavy 13 oz denim resists sparks and slag better than lighter weight FR blends.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What’s the difference between Ariat “Flint” and “Shale” in the M4 FR jeans?
A: “Flint” and “Shale” are two different denim washes. In Ariat’s FR line, Shale is the darker wash, while Flint is typically slightly lighter. The main difference is the shade of the denim, not the overall purpose of the jean.
Q: Which wash hides dirt and wear better — Flint or Shale?
A: If you’re choosing based on day-to-day appearance, darker washes like Shale generally hide grime and scuffs better. Flint has more visible contrast and may show dust or stains sooner.
Q: How does the M4 Relaxed Fit compare to slimmer work jean fits?
A: The M4 is designed to be relaxed through the waist, hip, and thigh, which helps reduce binding when bending, crouching, or working in and out of equipment. If you prefer a trimmer fit, Ariat’s M5 is typically the slimmer option.
Q: Will the M4 boot cut leg opening fit over work boots?
A: Yes. The boot cut leg opening is designed to stack over common work boot profiles (including bulkier toe shapes). If you prefer an even slimmer leg opening, consider a straight or slim-straight model instead.
Q: Does this jean meet CAT 2 / HRC 2 requirements?
A: This jean is listed with an ATPV rating of 20 cal/cm² and a CAT 2 classification in the product specifications. Always follow your company’s safety program to confirm the right protection level for your jobsite.
Q: Are the belt loops durable enough for heavy tool belts?
A: Yes. This style features anchored and reinforced belt loops designed to hold up better under the weight of heavier tool belts and pouches during regular work use.

Need updates with inventory
There is a great selection but of the 10 items I ordered all but 2 are on backorder. There should be a list of inventory so a person can find other items if the ones they wanted are not available.

Nice looking for FR pants, run big
Love them, but they are a little big I been 38 waist 36 length in just about all pants. I should have got 36 waist and 34 length would have been better.
