Hudson Durable GoodsHudson Durable Goods Heavy Duty Waxed Canvas Work Apron with Tool Pockets (Black), Cross-Back Straps & Adjustable M to XXL (Grey)

I am an executive chef for an Italian restaurant and hate wearing the bib aprons we get from our linen vendor at work, they hang around the neck and hardly protect your coat underneath, I saw this company had great reviews especially with wood working and for shop aprons in genera, a few culinary users here and there and decided to see what they were all about and let me tell you.. I am extremely happy with this purchase! I purchased the deluxe waxed shop apron and it is in fact water resistant and beads off the canvas with great consistency through the entire body of the apron! It is not intended as a heavy duty dish apron in regards to its water resistance but being on the line for 12-16 hours a day 6 days a week if not more has held up better then I could have hoped! I have not had to wash nor re wax out the bag and it has seen over 500 guest plates each day in use prep production and even in dish and has not worn what so ever! The apron comes pretty stiff at first being shipped and pristine but after a day and a half of use, molded to my body and the cross back has been a relief on my neck pain and back, all of the pockets this apron contains I use to my advantage and people at work always poke fun at me saying go go gadget something or another but being prepared for a lunch and dinner shift means having on hand and ready for anything and everything and this helps me run a great service hands down more useful then I’d imagine, towel loop and tongs on the otherGuest checks, wine keys, bottle opener pilot light, extra hand guards, probe Thermometer you name it! The material is of very high quality and it has recieved many compliments on its usefulness and overall look, the shoulder strap pads are very comfortable and completely customizable,I am 5”11 and weigh 135, 28 waist I’m skinny not by choice “ medical problems” you can trust this skinny chef though! Apron fits great and has plenty of room both larger and smaller then myself.I’d be interested in future aprons more catering to the food service and production app Ron’s if they come around to specialist aprons for such professions but this apron has been fantastic in itself!

I almost never leave reviews on amazon, but this really deserves one.At the time I purchased mine, this apron was a still brand new product here on amazon with probably less than ten reviews. After I received it, I figured that the price was only as low as it was so they could sell them while there was still hardly any feedback. I thought that after selling a few hundred or these, they would no doubt raise the price after hearing how much their customers loved them. Now after two years it actually costs less than when I bought mine. Go figure lolIt's still a bit hard to believe how little this apron cost considering it's quality. It's made from heavy duty canvas as the description says and really feels like a good layer of protection. It works great while I'm using my belt grinder as it keeps my shirts from having new holes burned in them, and it also works great while I'm forging steel (bladesmithing), since it protects my clothes and myself from most of the hot fire-scale that goes flying after hitting the hot steel.I'm also very pleased with how well it fits and how comfortable it is to wear. My previous cheap "leather" apron went around my neck, which I can't stand the feeling of, it's as if I'm wearing a weight around my neck or something. This one straps nicely over my shoulders, which not only makes it much more comfortable, but it also makes it feel lighter since my two shoulders are easily bearing the weight, not my neck. There are plenty of useful pockets on the front as well, so that is another plus.I would definitely recommend this apron and buy it again, although I'm not sure I'll ever need to.

I'm 5'7" and this fits perfectly. I was worried I'd be either too big or too small based on some other other user photos. It's perfect, but obviously very adjustable. Super happy. Fabric seems very durable. I use this as a general shop apron. Everything from working on my car, to my bike, to misc projects on the bench. For the price, just go for it.

It has a great color, excellent quality canvas and straps, a good assortment of deep and covered pockets, loops, metal grommets, pencil holder, etc.I have to do my woodworking outside in Taiwan( long story as apartment owner) .1. It really isn’t all that comfortable at first (very stiff), but after I put a few woodworking projects on it, it started to ease-up and more flexible. Kind of like a baseball glove, gets better with age.2. But still gets hot as humidity in Taiwan is high, as expected.Great product !!!Like made is USA!!!
