Leather Welding Apron with Sleeves,Heavy Duty Welding Jacket,Heat Flame Resistant Welder Apron for Men

I just received this apron and I do not mind telling you, this is a heck of an apron for $36. You ought to get one, it is a great value. The leather is fairly heavy, covers the knees the neck collar is nice snd it is comfortable. I am 5’ 10”, 185 lbs and the Large fits me jsut about perfectly. Really good apron, especially for the price. mjac

Sized well! 5'11" 210lbs, the XL fits like a jacket, just as expected with plenty of room at the sleeve ends and for layers underneath. The elastic straps are well placed and work well to keep the garment in a comfortable position. The buckles allow quick on/off and is much appreciated. The star of the show are the arms! The rear of the arms cover the entire shoulder blade, allowing ample movement before the elastic straps engage. It feels like a full garment until you feel the straps gently holding the shoulder blade flaps together. Aside from a couple of blemishes in the leather, which is overall great quality for the task, I love this protective gear.

These do run small I ordered an extra large my build is 5‘8“ 175 pounds most of my weight is in my belly with a 36” waist the large fits me very well would not dare go to a large I wear a medium to a large in a coat kinda in between I am still able to wear a heavy sweatshirt underneath it when it’s cold outside. as far as the two buckles go on the back, they seem to be fairly adequate. I leave the top one buckled and slide it on over my head takes a little work, but not a big deal would be very hard to buckle while you’re wearing it. I very seldom buckle, the lower one, as I don’t need to buckle it, it stays in front of me very well without it being buckled so far. It did find that it came a little damp, which I expected with leather no overwhelming odor as others have stated it did leave a lot of fuzz on my clothes after I first used it, but blowing off with compressed air and the vacuum to it seem to fix that problem. For the price it is an extremely good value, and I would definitely recommend and buy again I love the open back as it will help with air circulation on hotter days.

The quality looks excellent ( I prefer this desigh with the leather vs trusting cotton with flame retardent). I wish it came in a double XL as I am 5'10", 235 lbs with a 40" waist. The sides just do meet at the half way mark but I'd prefer they go 3/4 around my waist. I did leave the top strap attached and slid it over my head. I'm not sure how anyone can latch something that goes across their shoulder blades with a rear snap, I would need to be double jointed. A side or front latch system seems more practicle. I really like the neck coverage for welding, it's easy to get burns or UV exposure without such a design. I didn't notice any smell and it came wrapped in plastic. While sleeves would be considered short if we were fitting as a dress shirt (by an inch or two) the fact that you would use welding gloves should address that. Quality look excellent, I'd recommend this but like others have said it runs on the smaller side. If they offered a XXL I would of returned the "XL" I bought for that one. As it stands I'll keep this one and update the review as it sees actual use.

Have not used yet, But good fit and well made for the price. 5'11". .At bellybutton 44in. I orderd (XLg). South Ga. It will work well in the winter, hot in summer. Very very happy that I will not find moth holes in my clothes going forwards!!! I have a Chinese shoe patcher $115.00 that I will use to add some pen pockets and other adjustments, but overall GOOD AS IS! It is smelly but no rusty buttons or moisture. You can use saddle soap to wash. Most welders wont though. Going to be great when grinding too!!!!!

After taking it out of package it had a weird smell but after airing it out for a week its great has good neck protection you put it on like a hospital gown an it fastens in the back

Kind of disappointed with this. It is constructed well from decent leather the design has flaws, specifically, when you wear it you lose a lot of movement in your arms. This is because once it is on, the shoulders are really restrictive making it difficult to manipulate things in front of you.

Good for the DIY weld shop. Covers arms neck, chest and legs. I am 5'8" 215lbd and good fit for me. Some posted it was damp on arrival, so was mine hung in shop as soon as arrived and OK.
