Above and beyond in Quality

I ordered the apron, hoping that the quality would be good. I was pleasantly surprised as the quality was GREAT. I enjoyed the phone conversation with Matt the owner. This company is after quality over quantity. If you have any doubts, don’t, Matt will take care of any issues you have with his product.

Amazing Quality!

Fit and Finish along with the stitching tells me I will be enjoying this weld apron for a long time. Have already told two fellow welders to order them along with the matching gloves.

Really good stuff. I have bought a few aprons and was looking for a quality American-made one. Yours is exactly what I was looking for.
