Ben DavisMachinist's Apron

Well made. Well designed. Great price. Classic Ben Davis quality.
I have been looking for a replacement for my split pant apron for a very long time. Either they were in heavy leather (welding) or very expensive and designed for potters. This is perfect! Solid canvas, clips on legs and deep pockets. Even like the deep, rich green color. I see that they are “out of stock” on your website and only two left on Amazon (so I ordered another one quickly for my son). I hope you will be making your split leg “Teamster’s Apron” available soon as I have already told a couple of colleagues where I got mine.

Very sturdy but flexible at the same e
Hunny loves it! We have a 1 acre field where we have a garden and is perfect for him since he has tools that he needs on hand. Which the pockets make a perfect accommodation for that. Very high grade material and sturdy. Still able to move around in it and bend down.

Durable/ Comfortable
This is the best apron I've owned yet. I work in a wood mill and go through gloves and aprons quickly. Very Durable even though the fabric is kinda soft and comfortable. Was actually a little worried it was too soft was going to snag or tare easily but the opposite was true. Great purchase.

Nice looking.
It’s hard to find this old school apron now these days. But I finally got it! I use it for welding, woodworking, BBQing, cooking etc. I feel like a blacksmith walking around the house. My wife and my kids looking at me like a weirdo wearing this all day. But I love it!

Oddly not quite right
You'd think a company that has been around almost 90 years would have perfected this design by now but there are some odd major deficiencies that make this item less than ideally functional. None of the straps are adjustable, which is just not efficient and makes wearing them awkward and provides inadequate protection- which is what protective gear is for. The leg straps are inordinately long, and since they don't adjust, the fabric twists and the straps flap and flop around the legs and ankles and even fall under the feet, creating a tripping hazard, when one is seated. Perhaps they are meant to be double-looped around knees and ankles, rendering them uncomfortably tight? Other solutions would be to cut and sew them for a custom fit, or rubber band each of the 4 ties, or to velcro them- but really, who buys protective gear planning to embark upon a crafting project? No thanks. If I hadn't worn them while throwing pots all afternoon and getting them sloppy with clay I'd have returned them. Now I'm stuck with the aforementioned undesired craft project. They are extremely sturdy and hopefully once I've decided which method of alteration I'll use to make them functional, I'll have a decent leg-covering apron.
