HALLOWEEN (1978) COVERALLS MATCH

I’m definitely going to want to purchase

Still no luck on my end finding the actual Tradewears. So goddamn rare.

I know it’s been so long for me to reply but when are you planning to do the replicas? Was it this year or next year?

You’re fine. I’m trying to get them done as soon as I can but every time there’s a snag.

Sorry to hear about the setbacks! But it takes time to achieve perfection! : ) can’t wait to see the final result! And I’m sure I’m not the only one!

It’s honestly fine, take as much time needed

Hell no, you’re not :stuck_out_tongue:
Feel like asking for an update, every day. However that would ju be annoying as fudge.

I had no doubts! ; )
But, yeah…maybe everyday is a little much…
Maybe once a week?? ; ) I really really can’t wait! Them tradewears are hard to find! Especially in the right size!!

I have bought three pairs of coveralls this year alone. Trying to find a size that really fits me(6’7/2 meters). Which gets expensive since I order them from the US, and shipping and import fees into the E.U. are… “not cheap”. One pair of Reeds and two pairs of Roebucks.

Really hoping these ones will have longer legs.

Kind of off topic, but if you take whatever pairs you have now to a tailor, they may be able to lengthen them for you. (Entirely depending on how short they are and how thick the hem allowance is of course.)

That might be an option, thanks for the tip :slight_smile:

Does anyone know what kind of button that is on the collar? It looks metal but what does it look like on the other side? Is it like a button from a pair of jeans? I’m attempting to modify a very similar pair of coveralls by removing the snaps and sewing a buttonhole. I just need to know what kind of metal button to attach on the left side.

It’s a metal button, just like a jeans button. Nothing different except design on the button.

Thanks!

Where did you get these? Are there more?
40R?

Ebay, and they’re incredibly rare, I’ve been keeping an eye for the real deal

So “SEARS TRADEWEAR COVERALLS” in the search on ebay? Or a different name?

Correct. But sometimes they don’t even include tradewear in the title.
Best to include and set alerts for are:

“Tradewear vintage”
“Vintage sears coveralls”
“Sears tradewear”
“Coveralls vintage sears”

Etc.

And also check Etsy. That’s where I got mine
