Bulwark FR Men's Midweight Excel Fr Classic Coverall

I bought a pair of these coveralls primarily for use in my shop when I am welding. At 6'2", I ordered 46L just so I would have ample length in the legs to fit over work boots - there is nothing worse than a hot spark that finds it way into your boot while in the middle of a critical weld. The 46L is a bit long in the sleeve and the legs, but for my use, the fit is perfect (even when squatting or sitting there is still ample coverage over ankle). Out of the box, the flame resistant chemical treatment is obvious with a fairly strong smell. That went away with a quick wash in cold water, mild soap, and air dry on a hanger in the shop for a day. I've had them for a couple of weeks now, and wear them for a 2-3 hours daily. I've had several hours each day at the welder or grinder station with continuous hot metal sparks and spray coming in all directions, and the flame resistant properties are exactly as advertised. I see no signs of burn through. The welder puts out an intense amount of UV rays from the arc. Many cheaper (lighter) materials will let enough of the UV through that arc sunburn is common through many materials. With nothing but lightweight long sleeve and long leg underwear, I've not experienced any arc sunburn through the 9 oz material. Shop temperature varies from 50-70 degrees F. At the lower temperatures, these are just the right weight. However, when it warms up in the shop (70-72 F), I feel the heat - these do not breath, so air circulation is minimal (but if they did breath there would likely be UV leakage from the arc - so I tolerate the warmth in favor of UV protection) For the purposes that I use them, these are perfect; I can find nothing to complain about yet. Zippers and snaps appear to be decent materials. Sewing at seams is double thread in some places, single thread in others. I would have preferred double thread seams everywhere for durability in shop wear, but I see nothing to suggest these will fail in normal wear in shop environment. At $60 pair, they are more expensive than many others. BUT - the protection from UV and flying sparks and weld splatter is most important to me, and these Bulwark coveralls are exactly what I wanted and needed. I'll buy another pair soon (these will need a second washing soon and I don't want to be without them for the day or so that will take)

5’9” 160lbs, I ordered a size 40 regular based off reading the reviews and looking at the size charts but it fits too perfect if you know what I mean. I know it’ll probably shrink a little after a couple washes so I do recommend going a size or two bigger. Especially if you wear these with jackets or heavy clothing underneath.

Way too long, but we cut off extra and stuffed into boots. Crotch a bit low, but character has short legs so it worked splendidly for our purpose. Pretty light weight fabrics, which was preferable. Great item.

It's nice to find Bulwark Coveralls on Amazon versus there flagship site. I've ordered midweight classic in march and meets my expectations especially during shipboard operations. It's a comfortable lightweight fit after a few washes. Unfortunately they don't have both breast pockets like the usual models but I will made do with what I have. Word of advice, just wash but hang dry. If you use a dryer then the seams will become worn out and rip open, I've unfortunately laid waste to having my crotch hole open so I'll be ordering the bulwark deluxe to compare. Best pricing if you want to take a slice on quality.

Comfortable

A la medida

My chief complaint with this item is the sizing chart which is completely useless. AI suggested it ran small and I should order a size larger, which I did this one I can barely get into as well and maybe three sizes larger would be better. I purchased it as a requirement for a job that I start today. There is no time to return with a larger size so I’m going to have to shoehorn my way into this thing, I feel like I’ve wasted my money on this and I’m going to have to buy another one that fits better pretty hard for me to figure out which one that’s gonna be, though since I know that sizing chart is useless. I feel that it’s risky purchasing any item of clothing from Amazon for the treason and I will not be purchasing footwear. Any clothing or anything at all that requires sizing?

The Bulkward FR coverall is made from good quality material. The pockets and zipper well made and work. The biggest issue I had was the size guid was incorrect. I ordered a 48 tall, and I think i might need a 50 or 52 tall. The suit is not too heavy, basically what you expect for a FR suit. Once you find the right size I would fully support this product.

High quality material for excellent price. On me it’s more of a slim fit than relax fit and I’m ok with it (I can wear any thing from 38R to 42S, as long as length at legs fits me). Shoulders, chest, arms and waist fits perfectly. All in all impressed.

Great fit. Perfect for Halloween.

I'm 5' 11" @200lbs and this regular fit is great with leg being slightly long. Heavy cotton material is great during the winter can only image what it'll be like in the summer.

good quality, nice and thick

Very durable, run a little small. Usually take a 38 but is tight fit. Will order a 40 next time. Legs are long enough to protect pants. Not very easy to put on as its 100% cotton and stick to your underlayer, but the point it it’s fire proof, will resist grinding spray very well. Worth every pennie.
