Amazing, how did you get the zippers off? I got a pair of 90s era grey dickies and I worry about messing up so I haven’t removed them

It was very tedious i cant lie to you ! The first thing i did was locate the stitching on the outer chest area where the zippers were and i very carefully cut the thread in the middle of each zipper where the thread was and carfully started pulling the thread out loop by loop on each side, once the thread was pulled out from the top and bottom of the zippers then you were done with the easy part, the hard part was trying to do the sides of each zipper as typically on dickies overalls they are sewn over multiple times on the sides, the best way to do that is to fold the zipper inside out and work from there, be carful not to pull the zipper straight off or it will completely tear off the side of the pocket requiring you to re stitch it back in place, remember take your time dont rush, if you need any more help let me know ill be glad to be of service !!! And thankyou for the kind words i really appreciate that !!! H6 is awesome!! Easily the scariest version of michael myers in my opinion!!

Me too, ive always said if you take away the story of H6 and just watch it as a halloween film of him killing people without context then its one of the best in the franchise!!!

Where did you get the screen accurate coveralls? What brand are they? I would like to get a pair for myself.

Im from the uk so typically we dont get dickies overalls that much over here like the americans do, so i searched on “picclick” which is an ebay search engine where you find better results in what youre looking for, so i searched in " grey dickies coveralls with slanted zippers" i looked for ages even coming to the end of the pages for about 2 weeks straight with no luck, then out of nowhere i got lucky, someone in the UK where i live had posted them up, a vintage work wear seller, and i asked for more information about the coveralls they were 42R which is what michael lerner wore, they were the exact same zippers at the exact same angle as people forget most dickies zipper coveralls have different angles and ill post examples as references for you, the waist line matched up, the dickies logo matched up and was in the exact same position as it would have been when they removed it for filming, the sleeves were also dead on, i just got really really lucky as do most of us when we find things, the only difficulty im really having is finding the screen accurate boots, i will find them it will just take time, but yeah they are “grey dickies slanted zipper coveralls” the grey is on the lighter side, not too light but definitely not dark

These are mine and they are screen accurate to the original just look at the angle of the zipper, that is the correct position and thats just one example

Then there is these look at the zippers, the colour and the dickies logo on the arm, these are not accurate, and these are the most common ones, look out for these when searching if you want 110% accuracy

Look at the the ones in this shot from the film, the look darker than mine because of lighting but they arent, thats the beauty of angles and lighting i suppose, but can you see the angles of the zippers ? Thats how they are meant to be with the zippers removed obviously

If you do want anymore information let me know and ill try and help the best i can
