This is not the cheapest but it's a heavy duty waxed cotton apron that will last for years. I've been using mine for a while now and it's still in great condition. Very adjustable for all sizes and comfortable.

I never leave reviews. (Yes, I know I am terrible). But this I just had to.

I have been through so many aprons being someone who does woodworking. Running across this one because I was *again* looking (because my last one still didn't suit me) was such a happy day.
1) Waxed canvas
2) Pencil and marking knife holders
3) Ring for clean-up rag
4) Phone pocket *zips*. (No more falling phone while bending over ðŸ‘ðŸ»)
5) Not to many pockets!. The vast majority have WAYYYY to many pockets for my taste in waxed canvas aprons. Nothing like putting something in a pocket only have to rummage around figuring out what pocket it is in.
6) The pockets have flaps. Woodworks tend to have an obsession with dust control. Sawdust getting under my fingernails is never pleasant. Flaps will definitely help that!
7) Wonderful safety glasses strap. I am constantly misplacing mine. I have 6 pairs because of it 😂. So this thrills me. Remembering to use it "¦ I can learn!
8) It goes to my knees! I require this and in waxed canvas mid-thigh Is the norm. Sawdust tends to hit me from the knees up.
9) Split-leg was a big reason I got this one, because while I really need it to be knee length, sitting is such a pain as one's without split legs tend to get twisted.
10) Now a huge reason I really started looking at this one was the, what I call, the "hoodie" hand pocket. 😂 It is my "go to" thinking pose. In the winter I am wearing one, but summertime interferes with my problem solving because I don't know what to do with my hands! Problem solved with this apron. I wasn't even looking for this so major bonus for me! I haven't seen another apron have this.

I will say I was concerned about how well it would fit. I am 5'4" and have a short torso. The shoulder straps don't actually fit on my shoulders properly but not uncomfortably. The majority of the padding sits more on my shoulder blades behind.
The side adjustments fit me perfectly but are cinched to the smallest. So this means the across shoulder strap is actually under my shoulder blades. But to be honest this suits my taste as it keeps the middle of the front sides more smoothed down instead of catching on my arms. It is kind of a pain to slide over my head. I figure if it bothers me more than I want I will just cut it off, so far it hasn't.

Aesthetically it is far from pleasing. That is a personal thing though. I don't like brown very much in my attire and would have had icing on the cake if I could have had it in black. If the black had had the split leg then hands down I would have chosen that.
The material is heavy duty so far but not "heavy" on me. It is about the same weight as my winter leather jacket with no lining which is comfortable. But I haven't gotten overheated even when it jumps to 85-90 degrees F in my garage.

So far I am not regretting this decision at all. Should this change I will update my review.

Its just what I needed for work. Excellent quality.

My heart is same with Amazon is not being able to feel the products in your hands to test them out to see what they feel like to examine them up close. And we have all gotten a package where the item didn't come close to what we were anticipating.there's having to be one of those times where it was on the opposite end of that spectrum. I had hoped for a nicer woodshop apron. And done a bunch of research to find the right one for me. The couple that I really wanted were in the $200-$250 range... Which was just so much more than what I could afford right now. So for the time being I did end up going at cheaper route. I found the one that checked the most amount of boxes that I was looking for. And the most amount of pockets up high, but use the thicker grade canvas, it had two hand pockets for placing your hands in and pondering... :) It shipped sooner than in the of the other aprons. And when it arrived at the house, I could not have been more ecstatic to open it up and see How it was made, and what it felt like, and the craftsmanship that went into it. I was actually contacted before it arrived to double-check that it was still in transit and make sure that it had not been delivered without me realizing it. The company a small mom and pop shop (That as national as well as local communities, we desperately need places like these shops to stay around in order to keep the economy moving forward!!!) And that was one of the added benefits of buying through them. As a local community tradesman, making wood furniture and decor, I am always trying to talk Friends, Family Members and loved ones, into spending local money on local products. I am not always the cheapest product or even the fastest built product compared to most of the big box stores or a place like international wood furniture builders. Very few parts of their catalog is very rarely made in the community that they so to serve in! Then I'm not backing on the big international box store places They have their purpose and their right to exist as well, but we need to support the local economies and help those business members survive and thrive and if that means paying 10% more to receive a high-end customizable durable apron then I'm happy to pay that higher percentage, as well as having it built in the United States. This outfit was so kind reaching out to me to make sure the package had been delivered and taken care of because they said that they had had a few customers that did not know the package was coming through USPS, and did not know that it was sitting at their PO box, expecting it to come from the brown shipping company and directly to their doorstep. When I received it and put it on for the first time I was tremendously blown away by the craftsmanship. Of course it would be extremely wonderful to have a custom built shop apron with the perfect amount of pocket holders for everything that I want to keep on my person. As well as being able to pick the material it's made out of in order to get a more breathable, lighter weight, softer, more durable, custom stitching and Your Custom Company Logo and incredibly the same quality of apron Because of their quality of work and attention to detail. They can offer such options on their higher end aprons because it is US made, by US American ;) True Artists Tradesman!! Do not spend less money on a cheaper inferior product ship from who the hell knows where in hopes of receiving something that's usable. they're low and apron which is the one I bought is every bit is price competitive as anything out there. And the quality is off the charts! I think it might run you like five 10 more dollars in the average shop apron. But it is 10 times the quality and value in the product. In the next couple years, maybe for Christmas or my birthday....I am requesting from the wife, or my mother, one of their top-of-the-line, custom made when ordered, shop apron. But right now I am still tickled pink with the quality of the $40 apron I just bought a month ago. I've been so impressed that I'm going to buy a second one for my shop assistant....who is usually a high school neighbor kid struggling to get through school with their Graduation Diploma as well as staying out of trouble. It also gives them a skill, and confidence and tools to help them succeed in their life. Or at times it's an individual that is recovering from an addiction or 2, has been recently released on probation, and deserves another chance and doesn't have the money to purchase their own apron. I use that position to teach them a craft, get them back on their feet, and back safely blended into society again. Nine times out of ten it works wonderfully as they are extremely grateful and go on to bigger and better things. The value in the apron makes it so that I can afford a second one for those working around me, so they can enjoy the luxury and convenience of staying clean, by keeping glue off of yourself, being safe adding another layer of durable protection from lumber sap, shrapnel from the table saw, or anything else that could reach up and rip holes in the clothes or injure you. I don't know convenience of having your measuring tools and hand tools at your reach at all times is unparalleled. And I may even end up buying a third one for the shop assistant that is more a boss than an assistant, and sure does love to boss me around in my own DAMN SHOP!! (My special assistant, the extremely beautiful Lovely Lady Friend, my wife! 🤣) She had been complimenting me on the apron and how nice it was that it kept all the glue off my clothes and that she didn't have to keep finding and handing me my pencil... She didn't even know I had just bought it. I know that I have rambled and I am truly sorry for the grammatical errors in this 37-page essay(I am really tradesman, not in English professor. And what normally stops me from writing one of these review information list, is the embarrassment of my 40-year-old English Dum Dum brain!), but I've just been so impressed with this apron and the group behind them that makes them and stands behind their work that I felt like I had to take some time and leave a review on a product I truly believe in. I honestly don't believe I have written more than two of these product reviews my entire life, or at least I can't remember when the last time was when I gave a review and sat down and wrote and out and recommended a product to the public, I don't say don't Ha!! That is how much they have impressed me. I would like to publicly announced to those reading this novel / Thank EcoZenLifeStyle for the incredibly high quality product they have provided me. I wish I would have taken the leap and bought one sooner, but nonetheless I now have another solid piece of shop safety equipment that I won't ever be taken' it off while I'm down in the shop, right alongside my respiratory mask (during milling boards down, sanding to 220, and coating in whatever your finish is, and Safety Glasses, as well as your Safety Glasses, then lastly Safety Glasses). I would like to say Congratulations and thank you again from this really small, Family run, Locally Owned and Operated Wood Shop Company in the greater Salt Lake City, Wasatch Front Area.....Thank You once again!! I'm recommending you guys to everyone I come across and meet, and all my Wood Whispering Friendsâ˜ðŸ¼ðŸ‘ðŸ¼

I'm a woodworker by trade and need durable tools and equipment. This apron has held up pretty well with daily use since I bought it. One of the grommets that holds a strap is starting to tear loose but it's still functional and it's comfortable to wear. The only downside is that it's hot to wear in the summer and our shop doesn't have AC so I only wear it occasionally in the summer months.
