That’s awesome man. Glad you spotted them!
These are great! I bought an exact pair like these back in March. Got lucky last second in a bid, but they are almost spot on!
So if one is looking for something simple and cheap for a quick H1 look, are the Red Kap brand a fair option? Considering pairs can be had on Amazon for under 30 dollars, I am just curious. I know the pocket flap and what not is missing on those, so it’s not all that accurate, but just curious what some thoughts are on them.
Surely it has to be better than the TOTS H1 coveralls for $60? Can’t imagine the material on TOTS coveralls are all that great. Never bought a pair of any TOTS coveralls, so I just assume they are typical Halloween costume material.
If the Red Kap brand is a fair option, how are the sizes on those? True to size, run small, etc? I am 6’1, 210 pounds. Just want to be sure I grab the right size since they have to be ordered. I don’t want to have to return them and go through that whole process. Let me know guys, thanks.
I’ve been using old Craftsman coveralls for years, I just want to update the look to something a little closer to accurate, but not spend a lot to get there. Thanks again.
If you can’t find any Big Macs, Roebucks or Montgomary Wards in a big enough size, Red Kaps are the best to go
Go to an army surplus store, theyre like $15-$25 they made literally millions of them
Reeds in charcoal gray are a great cheap option. Got mine off ebay
Thanks everyone for the suggestions, I will be sure to look into all of those options.
I got mine at an army shop for cheap, cause they’re knock offs
its harder to find them in the UK, I found these imported from the US on amazon for about £45 but that’s the best I could find https://www.amazon.co.uk/Fox-Outdoor-Products-Vietnam-Jungle/dp/B00HGYYPTK/ref=sr_1_4?crid=1CIW0NZUQVOUB&keywords=vietnam%2Bjungle%2Bboots&qid=1566363519&s=gateway&sprefix=vietnam%2Bjun%2Caps%2C239&sr=8-4&th=1&psc=1
Yeah that’s reproduced, but they still work
is the size in UK or US? it doesn’t say when I look
US
ok thanks, i’ll have to order a size up then
What kind are these?
they’re Sears Tradewears, they’re incredibly hard to find in green and gray
I’m actually very happy with what Reeds is currently offering. I got these about a year back. The fit is very nice and the pattern is pretty darn close to Tradewears. There are only a couple of very minor adjustments that would need to be made such as switching out the snaps on the collar for the button/slit combo, and then adding the accurate stitching on the wrist cuffs. Otherwise, they’re probably about as close as you can currently get today. Same style pocket over the right breast, and even details like the left breast pocket having a special stitched space for a pen/pencil to slide into. These photos don’t show off the details well, but they show how nice they look when worn.
(Ignore the way my baggy gym shorts underneath made the hips poke out a bit)
they only have 40L in Charcoal now
Wait a few days . They always get more. I gotta get another pair. I somehow lost my Reeds
Has anyone purchased the TOTS licensed coveralls? Wondering if they are more Halloween store quality instead of replica quality.
Probably more Halloween store quality
