Shame the zips are exposed, so scratch the wing of your pride and joy when working on it ;)

Not a bad price, pure cotton an advantage if you want to do some welding, etc. Zips is a bit of a problem. Shame I've recently bought a set from B&Q for more. >:(

.. judging by the picture those ones make you look a bit of a t0663r though. ;D

Not that I can talk - all overalls make me look like a tosser, due to a physique similar to Jimbob's avatar  :-[

That is certainly a better picture in my mind than one mentioned in another thread ( Paul Daniels naked!!!)  ;)

When I worked at Musgrove ( local hospital) my tunic was one of those that fastened up the side and across the top of one shoulder with poppers .... and a certain secretary would always try ( and sometimes succeed) to rip it open as she passed by -- not a pretty sight at all  :o

Just bought two sets from the Dickies range ( green and the white ) and one of the Ex Dutch army ones. Both great quality and I have to say better than the Lidl ones I have been using. The zips and cuff studs on the Lidl items can cause damage to paint/lacquer/french polish surfaces and are a little shy of the real XXL size they are suppossed to be .
