Wanted heavy duty workshop overalls.

[Blobber]

These Mericun Key overalls are good,toasty in the winter, zips up the legs so you don't need to take your boots off to get out of them, They are the only overalls I have ever that are truly waterproof, you can lay under plant in mud/crap and it wont get through.

Portwest / Bizweld .
Used them for years
The press studs are the weak part of them
I get velcro stitched in to mine .
They also do trousers and jackets made from the same stuff .

Portwest Bizflame .
I use them all day at work. Knee pad holders too. I cut the flap off the rule pocket though as its a nightmare to get a rule in!!

A good leather apron would help preserve overalls for several operations mentioned?

Steelguard from America, bet I have ever found.

I have a set that is too small for me.

Finally found somewhere local ish that stocks Portwest, Emblem Workwear on the medway estate, XXXL fire retardent ones, 122 quid for two pairs, very pleased as a sensible fit and just feel good.
So a big thank you to all that suggested Portwest.

What's wrong with that? ...... by the time you've rolled up the arms & legs it should be quite heavy duty.

One can make them heavy by putting wrights in the pockets.

Hello,
Dickies make some really good boiler suits with brass zips, I have found these comfortable to wear not too hot in warm weather. They are not flameproof so if you are welding or grinding I wear a leather welding jacket which are incredibly good value and comfortable to wear. Also have a leather apron which is marvellous as you can grind and weld all day without getting holed. The leather apron was incredibly good value, £7 from my welding shop.
Regards

We use Motul overalls at work and they are very good quality, not waterproof though.

Dickies make great workwear I have a lot of their WD814 work trousers, 6 zipped pockets (don't make them any more unfortunately).
