HALLOWEEN (1978) COVERALLS MATCH

Almost 100% identical in my opinion. Great score!

REED! Overhauledā€¦ :slight_smile:

The search is over! I can finally rest :rolleyes: :rolleyes: great find man, Iā€™ve always considered sears to be a possibility but the snap collar and slightly rounded chest pockets on most pairs gave me doubts. The color looks spot on too, at least to my eyes.

You Sir just made my fucking day. THAT is an AMAZING match. I can only hope I can find the same pair in my size :frowning: :frowning: :frowning: iā€™m a 40R but Iā€™m not sure where I come to in those sizes (Tall?) Iā€™m 5ā€™10ft Around Nick Castleā€™s height.
And 100% agreed with aboveā€¦I love my Big Macā€™s but the pocket flap and herring bone pattern has bothered me for so long. So were these Spruce Green? Thatā€™s an assumption Iā€™ve always thought the H1ā€™s may have been. Your colour looks dead on. Fucking wow though, i think that must be themā€¦

I canā€™t even seem to find photographs of another pair of Sears Tradewear coveralls. These must be supremely rare! No wonder we havenā€™t been able to find them for decades.

Weā€™ll have to look out for each other finding more. At least we know what they are now thatā€™s a big help LOL.
I did however find a similar pair in Navy, and they seem to be a brand from the 60ā€™s not 50sā€¦havenā€™t found any in Charcoal or Spruce Green yetā€¦

Yup! Wrong model too. Snap closure. I found a pair of womenā€™s with NO closure at all. These things are crazy rare!

Weā€™re closer than ever before though! Lol

I saw those too, I was gonna try snatch them since they were a perfect size for me, but they sold fast :laughing:

Honestly Iā€™m holding out till an exact pair comes up

Iā€™d imagine a few of us have the eBay search saved to our favorites. :laughing:

YUP. Definitely not the only one :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:
Checking everyday from now on.

Good luck on the search yaā€™ll and be patient. Hopefully some more pairs will pop up. Btw I donā€™t think Iā€™ll be able to take pictures this weekend, the weather isnā€™t how Iā€™d like it to be at the moment, but if it suddenly changes iā€™ll get some on here asap. Also just to clear up, Iā€™m pretty sure these are spruce green, they have a bluish greenish color and change color in different lighting.

No worries. Weather isnā€™t so great over here in the UK either lol. And for sure. Like I said, we have to help each other find these. I need a 40R, In Spruce, iā€™m 5ā€™10 around Nick Castleā€™s height. Until I find a pair that meets those specs for me, my Olivewood Big Macā€™s I weathered will have to do for now. I reckon If i did the same treatment to the SEARS Tradewear i think weā€™d have a convincing screen used pair! Iā€™d be willing to offer weathering services to people if they wanted. I think it be a fun job!

Awesome weathering job!

I recently picked up this pair of Montgomery Wards. I donā€™t know what the color is called but it looks like the right color to me. This pair has the hammer loop. I just sent them to a friend who is going to re-attach the hammer loop and square off the pocket flap. Until I find a set of the Sears in this thread the MWā€™s will have to do.

The Mongomerys look good enough, you should just try to remake the pocket to be square.

Here are some new pictures I took, it finally stopped raining for once. I tried to recreate some shots as good as I could. I took these on my cellphone. The color looks off in some pictures, I feel like it could partly be because theyā€™re still new and partly because my phone kept automatically changing settings and they look too bright. They looked spruce green then greenish gray and gray in certain pictures. Once I get around to washing them Iā€™ll retake these and post them if theyā€™re better.

I donā€™t believe itā€™s the new look, itā€™s the white balance and your grey levels, the colour is definitely green, here

Anyone who denies that these are THE fucking coveralls is blind. Thanks so much man! Expect my PM soon
