what's wrong with your overalls?

I have a mate that works on the oil rigs And he happens to be the same size as me, the boiler suits he gives me are far superior to any of the claas, jd or kv ones I've worn in the past. Seem to last forever. Also fireproof so handle a few sparks from the grinder etc.

Can't stand overalls - hate them
Winter time it's Wrangler jeans
Summer time it Canterbury "rugger" shorts
Shirt is always long sleeved heavy cotton drill "half button front", with a blue Bonds singlet underneath - summer & winter

My 'Sunday best' are a Kverneland pair. I expect they would be quite expensive (given them for testing some plough metal for them years ago.

Kverneland boilersuits are the boilersuit of choice round these parts, nearly everybody wears one, to the extent that I was once told in Stirling mart that it's the "tuxedo "for my locality - it's how you recognise someone comes from my area. :)
Since I am ridiculously vain, it is important that one's boilersuit does make one look like a pie gobbling, cake munching fat barsteward, and Kv and Claas score well on this criteria (y)

They're also pretty hardwearing too.(y)

I've some New Holland overalls, they fit quite well, elasticated waist is quite good.

But they damn things seem to snag on everything, both back pockets are ripped and one of the front pocket openings got torn the other day.
