Carpenter Apron: 16 oz Heavy-Duty Canvas Tool Pockets

Every pocket has a job to do

• Riveted pockets hold the tools

  Antique brass rivets reinforce the pocket corners, so the canvas carries a hammer, pencils and a tape measure without tearing or sagging. The hammer loop keeps the heaviest tool at your hip, and the pencil and tape pocket keeps the marking tools in the same place every time.

• Cross-back straps carry the weight

  Padded shoulder straps and an adjustable cross-back design spread the load across both shoulders instead of pulling on one. Set the buckle at the waist, tighten the shoulders to your frame, and the apron stays where it belongs when you bend and climb.

• Ready to work, no waxing

  The 16 oz brushed canvas is ready to wear on the first day, with no waiting and no treatment before the first job. A zippered chest pocket with a leather pull keeps small fasteners secure, and the metal D-ring tab is ready for a lanyard or tape.

Ready in under two minutes

1. 1
   Set the straps loosely

   Put the apron on with the buckle at your waist. Loosen the cross-back straps all the way before you start adjusting.

2. 2
   Tighten to your frame

   Wear it for a minute, then tighten the padded shoulder straps until the apron sits at your hips and stops pulling forward when you bend.

3. 3
   Load by job

   Hammer in the loop, pencil and tape in the pocket on the front, and small fasteners in the zippered chest pocket.

4. 4
   Keep the zip closed on the move

   Close the chest zip before you climb or kneel so small parts stay in place while you work.

Ready to work, no waxing needed

• Spot clean

  Use cool water and a mild soap on stains instead of soaking the whole apron.

• Keep heat away

  Skip high-heat machine drying, which shrinks cotton and dulls the brushed finish.

• Air dry flat

  Lay it flat in shade so the canvas dries evenly and the rivets stay tight.

• Spread the load

  Keep heavy tools near the hip and avoid stacking hardware in one pocket.
