Customer Review
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 29 September 2020As the title implies it's a quality item that feels real quality from the moment you pick it up. No one can be disappointed by the weight and feel of this apron and for the price it's an absolute bargain.
If I'm honest I do actually prefer lightweight cotton aprons, especially when the weather is warm but my lightweight apron needed washing so as I had already bought this one but had never used it, I thought I'd give it a try.
It's a bit heavy in comparison to the lightweight ones I normally use but I've got used to wearing it now after using it daily for the past three weeks mostly outdoors whilst constructing a large Catio and it's comfortable to wear. It's also already had a fair bit of hammer in the time I've been using it so it already looks to be an apron with a long life.
It has plenty of pockets, in fact too many for me personally so I might just unpick some of the stitching to reduce the number of pockets to allow more room in some of the fewer remaining ones. This will suit me but may not suit everyone so each to their own and best to take this part with a pinch of salt.
The apron adjusts fairly well to fit and I guess it will fit around the girth of the most portly of people. The length is certainly not skimpy so no one should ever find any issues with size and fit.
As I'm slim, the tie belt is way too long for my waist so once I'd adjusted the belt clip, I just overlapped several layers of the unused belt and loop fastened them with an elastic band to save the unused part of the belt from dangling.
I could just shorten the belt to fit me of course but it's a shame to cut it.
The problem with thinner aprons is that when you have sharp implements in the front pockets they can on occasions poke/protrude their way through the pocket material but there's little chance of that happening with this apron. It's really substantial and anyone looking for 'proper' apron could do much worse than to purchase this one.
The question is would I recommend it to others?...without question of course I would. In fact I would very much doubt if you'd get a better apron by paying double or more for it.
It was a good purchase and I've no doubt it will last me many years. Excellent!
