Goodmates Basis men's track pant

The Goodmates Basis Track Pant is a relaxed track-style work pant cut for comfort first. The body is an 80% cotton, 20% polyester brushed fleece at 290gsm, so it has a soft hand and a bit of weight to it rather than the thin feel of a flimsy trackie. If your team spends long days on their feet, or you want an off-duty layer for cooler mornings, this is the kind of pant people reach for without thinking about it.

The fit is handled with an elastic waist plus drawcord, and elastic cuffs at the ankle. That combination gives a forgiving, adjustable fit across different body shapes, which matters when you are kitting out a group rather than one person. There is no formal tailoring here and no claim of any safety rating, so treat it as comfort-led casual workwear rather than a tailored corporate trouser.

It comes in as a men's piece under the Corporate Workwear range, in the Men's Trousers category. If you like the look of it, you can view the Basis Track Pant on Done Right Safety and confirm the available sizes before you order.

Choosing the right size

Men's ranges vary by brand and cut, so the size you take in one label will not always carry across to another. The elastic waist and drawcord here give you some room to adjust, but you still want the base size right. Check the size guide on the product page before ordering, and if you are buying for a group, size each person rather than guessing off an average.

Wearing and fit

The drawcord lets you set the waist where you want it, and the elastic cuffs keep the leg from dragging on the ground. The 290gsm brushed fleece is on the warmer side, so this suits cooler conditions better than a hot summer shift. Think of it as a comfort layer rather than a tailored trouser for front-of-house corporate duties.

Care and longevity

Stick to the care label to keep the fleece soft and the fit holding up. That means a cold machine wash with like colours, no bleach and no tumble dry. Line dry it in the shade, and if it needs pressing, use a low iron on the reverse. Skip dry cleaning. Following this protects the brushed surface and the elastic over repeated washes.

All four pants here are like-for-like, same-type men's work pants from the Done Right Safety range, so the comparison is genuine rather than adjacent. The real difference comes down to fabric, fit and pocket layout, which is what you should weigh up before ordering.

If comfort and warmth are the priority, the Goodmates Basis is the clear pick: the 290gsm brushed fleece and elastic waist make it the most casual and the easiest to live in of the four. The Biz Collection Lawson Chino (BS724M) leans the other way, a soft cotton chino with a tapered leg and proper pockets, for a tidier look.

For a more conventional corporate trouser, the Biz Collection Classic Flat Front (BS29210) gives you easy-care fabric with mechanical stretch and a full set of pockets, while the Biz Corporates Cool Stretch (70114R) is the one to look at for warmer climates thanks to its breathable polyester and bamboo charcoal blend. The track pant is the only one of the group built primarily for comfort rather than a flat-front office look.

On the listing, the strengths are clear. This is a substantial 290gsm brushed fleece track pant in an 80% cotton, 20% polyester blend, with an elastic drawcord waist and elastic cuffs. That makes it a comfortable, adjustable, comfort-led option rather than a tailored corporate trouser, and a sensible repeat-order staple where you want the same fit and colour across a team.

A few things are worth verifying before you commit. The pocket layout is not spelled out in the listing, so check the product page if pockets matter for the role. There are no standards or ratings listed against this pant, which is normal for a comfort garment, but it does mean you should not treat it as rated PPE. Confirm sizing on the product page too, since men's cuts vary by brand.

For the right job, a warm casual layer or downtime wear, it is an easy recommendation. If you need pockets, a tidier flat-front profile, or a lighter pant for hot conditions, one of the chino or corporate options above will serve you better.
