Hudson Durable Goods Heavy Duty Waxed Canvas Work Apron with Tool Pockets (Black), Cross-Back Straps & Adjustable M to XXL (Grey)

Sturdy. Works well shielding me from chemicals. Pockets are good.

I almost never leave reviews on amazon, but this really deserves one. At the time I purchased mine, this apron was a still brand new product here on amazon with probably less than ten reviews. After I received it, I figured that the price was only as low as it was so they could sell them while there was still hardly any feedback. I thought that after selling a few hundred or these, they would no doubt raise the price after hearing how much their customers loved them. Now after two years it actually costs less than when I bought mine. Go figure lol It's still a bit hard to believe how little this apron cost considering it's quality. It's made from heavy duty canvas as the description says and really feels like a good layer of protection. It works great while I'm using my belt grinder as it keeps my shirts from having new holes burned in them, and it also works great while I'm forging steel (bladesmithing), since it protects my clothes and myself from most of the hot fire-scale that goes flying after hitting the hot steel. I'm also very pleased with how well it fits and how comfortable it is to wear. My previous cheap "leather" apron went around my neck, which I can't stand the feeling of, it's as if I'm wearing a weight around my neck or something. This one straps nicely over my shoulders, which not only makes it much more comfortable, but it also makes it feel lighter since my two shoulders are easily bearing the weight, not my neck. There are plenty of useful pockets on the front as well, so that is another plus. I would definitely recommend this apron and buy it again, although I'm not sure I'll ever need to.

Great apron. I was initially worried about the fit given it's sizing claims it fits M-XXL, but it turns out there was nothing to worry about there. The apron is a good length, and comfortable to wear, even with the 'out of the box' stiffness in the wax. With time and use, I imagine it'll be even better. I use this mostly in the garage/shop while I'm tinkering with various woodworking projects. The pockets are plenty big enough for convenient access to squares, small levels, etc.., and the cell pocket keeps the phone close and out of harms way. I tend to stream music from the phone to a bluetooth stereo, so it's nice to be able to just reach in the pocket to change playlists or send off a quick text when needed. About the only things I'd change would be the little leather patch that the straps cross through on the back, and perhaps having the lower 'skirt' of the apron below the pockets split to make it easier to bend or kneel. The leather piece that the straps pass through is far too soft for the purpose (in my opinion) often bunching up and making it harder to adjust than something stiffer might. Having a split skirt in front would still offer much the same protection, but allow for greater freedom of movement. Neither is enough to warrant removing a star, as both are more my personal preference rather than any defect or shortcoming in the apron. I'm actually considering getting a second one to use with my BBQ grill. The pockets are big enough to hold my grill gloves, which resemble welding gloves, and with a little modification to some of the grill tools, I can probably use the hammer loops to keep them handy. Definitely worth considering if you're in the market for a new shop apron.

I recently purchased the Hudson Durable Goods Heavy Duty Waxed Canvas Work Apron in Grey, and let me tell you, it's been a game-changer for me. As a DIY enthusiast, I'm constantly getting into projects around the house, and I needed something to keep my clothes clean and protected. This apron did the trick and then some! First of all, let's talk about the quality. The waxed canvas material is sturdy and durable, but not so heavy that it's uncomfortable to wear. The stitching is top-notch, and I can tell this apron is built to last. Plus, the grey color is stylish and goes with just about anything. But the real reason I love this apron is the functionality. It has pockets galore, which is perfect for me because I'm always misplacing my tools. The chest pocket is great for holding smaller items like screws and nails, while the larger pockets on the waist are perfect for my hammer, screwdriver, and other tools. And let's not forget the adjustable straps! I'm a bit on the shorter side, so I appreciate that I can adjust the straps to fit me comfortably. It's also great that the apron is machine washable, so I don't have to worry about getting it dirty. Now, I have to admit, I'm not the most graceful person in the world. I've spilled my fair share of paint and glue on this apron, but it wipes off easily and doesn't leave any stains. Plus, the waxed canvas repels water, so if I'm working outside in the rain, I don't have to worry about getting soaked. I have to tell you about a particular incident that happened while I was wearing this apron. I was working on a project that involved using a lot of spray adhesive, and as you can imagine, things got a bit messy. I ended up getting some of the adhesive on my apron, and I was worried it would never come out. But, to my surprise, when I got home and tossed the apron in the wash, it came out looking good as new! I was so impressed with how well the waxed canvas held up against the adhesive and how easily it cleaned up. It's moments like these that make me appreciate the quality of this apron even more. Aside from its practical uses, this apron has also become a bit of a conversation starter. Whenever I'm wearing it out in public, I always get compliments and questions about where I got it. It's not every day that you see someone walking around in a work apron, after all. But, perhaps the funniest moment involving this apron was when I wore it to a barbecue. I was grilling up some burgers and hot dogs, and I didn't want to get grease all over my clothes, so I put on the apron. Well, let's just say that my friends thought it was hilarious that I was wearing a work apron to a casual backyard barbecue. But hey, I like to be prepared for any situation! One of the things I love about this apron is that it's so versatile. I can wear it while I'm working on my car, woodworking in my garage, or even cooking in my kitchen. The apron is designed to be heavy-duty and to protect your clothing from any spills, stains, or scratches, which is perfect for me since I tend to be a bit clumsy. Another thing I appreciate about this apron is the attention to detail. The straps are reinforced with metal grommets, which means they won't tear or fray over time. The pockets are also reinforced with double stitching, so I don't have to worry about them wearing out anytime soon. Additionally, the apron has a cross-back design, which takes the pressure off my neck and distributes the weight evenly across my shoulders. This means that I can wear it for extended periods of time without experiencing any discomfort. I also love that this apron is unisex, which means that both men and women can wear it comfortably. The adjustable straps make it easy to find the right fit, regardless of your body type. Overall, I would highly recommend the Hudson Durable Goods Heavy Duty Waxed Canvas Work Apron to anyone who loves to DIY or work with their hands. It's functional, durable, and stylish, and it's made my life a lot easier. 4 out of 5 stars - I only took off a star because I wish it came in more colors!

I use it for bartending and this thing is amazing. Super solid, comfortable. The only downsize is that it takes a while to dry in the winter because it's a thicc boi

It's as manly as a manly apron can be, lol. It's incredibly stiff and well made. Easily a 10+ year apron looked after correctly. I have a 48" chest and was worried it may look small on me but it looks and feels great. The shoulder straps are comfy and it's easy to put on. I did run mine through the tumble drier just to loosen up the fabric a little. But it's well loved now and I would definitely recommend it

très bon produit. tissu de qualité et bonne couture

El mandil es súper resistente, iba a comprar uno más caro porque pensé que sería mejor pero no me arrepiento. Lo uso para cortar madera y es muy fácil de limpiar, además me mantiene limpio y no me ensucio ni un poco.

Muy buen producto
