Every woodworker needs a good Apron. We took our original apron and did a major design overhaul to toughen it up and we get - Apron 2.0!. It’s made of 8oz cotton canvas which we find is the perfect weight for toughness while at the same time allowing you to move around and not overheat. We improved the webbing to 1-1/2 inches wide military specification webbing and buckles. Each strap is fully adjustable to perfectly fit the apron to your body. One large and two medium sized, rounded bottom pockets make it easy to reach in and grab the smallest item. The large pocket features a half-round flap for those items you’d rather not have covered in saw-dust. And lastly, a combination pencil / ruler and cell phone pocket at chest height. Everything is double stitched with military grade edging so things don’t pull apart. Made in the U.S.A. You will love it.
one of the backstraps is twisted and if I turn the twist around, it just twists in the opposite direction. Not sure if that's intentional, but it looks odd. Also, for me the belt strap is too long and I have cinched it down as much as possible. Am I too thin? One last thing, it would be nice if the belt was made in such a way that you can have enough slack to latch and then have a way to tighten it up afterwards.
I got tired of trying to blow, brush or shake myself clean after working in the shop. With this appron I can stay cleaner and carry tools instead of spending more time looking for them. As thick as the material is it's really lightweight. Love it.
Purchased while attending a Train the Hand/PHP workshop. Well constructed, pockets are great, and the straps/buckles bring it all together.
I looked at a LOT of shop aprons. Some too heavy for the wearing in the weather here, some too stiff, some too flimsy, some with "sub-standard" sewing, straps and hardware...
Diligence rewarded...Mr Cosman's is perfect.
Thanks
It is nice to not have to worry about quality when buying from RC.
This is also a good design. other aprons always end up with so much saw dust and shavings in the pockets.
