I have this same apron wore it in my wood shop for probably twenty years until it was so stained and wore out that i would drop a tool into the pocket and it would exit the hole in the bottom landing on my foot i just knew a new one of that quality would be hard to find but it turns out i found the exact same one same heavy fabric great pricefor those who think the strings are too short i learned early on that even my old one needed to be worn high on the chest
