Relaxed Fit Duck Bib Overall

Great gear!

I'm very sorry to write this as I've been working (marine service & timbering in Alaska and PNW) Carhartt bibs for forty years. These bibs don't come up to scratch. Zippers broke after two wears. (Admittedly I'm pretty hard on them on the boats and in the woods.) Seams separated at the cuffs after a couple of weeks. Worst though? The shoulder straps don't maintain their adjustment. Pretty unsafe when you have a chainsaw screaming over your head and your bibs fall down around your ankles. I guess they'd be okay for weekend trips to the hardware store. Not for real day in day out work.

These are fabulous!

Product is exactly as described. Fits nicely - I'm 5'11" and 200lbs - I ordered the 36" waist x 32" inseam. Material wore in quickly and has a soft, light feel to it. Functionality is ideal for the contracting work that I do. Product is made in Indonesia. And here's where things get important. I ordered this product in blue AND the same product in the typical Carhartt brown. Same product, same size. But? the brown is made in India. The material is significantly stiffer. The cut has to be to a different pattern because laying one product on top of the other they don't match up. I'm tempted to drag the brown pair behind the truck for a day or two. I've no doubt it will hold up to the beating but I feel like that's what it's going to take to make that pair a 'relaxed fit'. Either way, I've no doubt that these bibs will serve me well, as have all the other Carhartt products I've purchased in the past.

I'm just kinda disappointed with my bibs that I got. I bought them at a retail store. In early april late march and they're already beginning to rip in certain spaces,right above where the double layer is on the boot cuff and on the first wash some of the seams began to fray and tonight, while I was bending down, the buckle for the suspenders, came loose and had to repin the buckle back into place
