Which is better for work?

The Dickies pants. Twill work pants handle abrasion and pockets better than a knit polo. The polo is a shirt, not a substitute for pants.

The Dickies twill should outlast the polo's knit, though the flex blend wears faster than rigid 100% cotton 874 twill. The polo's main wear points are the collar and banded hem.

Is the polo good for travel?

Yes. It is wrinkle-resistant and the banded hem keeps it in place. Skip the white if see-through fabric bothers you.

Do the pants come in my inseam?

The listing shows 30, 32 and 34 inch inseams in big & tall sizes. Check the size chart for waist sizing before ordering.

They serve different purposes, so buying both is reasonable if you need work pants and a polo. Compare each item's store prices before buying.

Which is worth the extra money?

No prices were provided, so compare current store prices on each product page. The Dickies is the better value if you need durable pants; the polo if you need a travel-friendly shirt.
