This is a quality bib. I would have given it five stars, except that it could be improved by changing the strap that goes around your neck. If you put much in the bib, the nylon strap rubs and cuts into the back of your neck. A shirt collar helps, but I often work in a t-shirt. If they made a padded section around the neck, I'd give it five stars.

I had the lesser version until the hammer loop broke, then I ordered the 'Big Dog'. I found this version to be much better. There are two hammer loops, multiple screwdriver pockets, six big pockets, and adjustible straps. This apron is easy to put on, and take off. When, and if, this apron breaks, I will quickly purchase another.

If you are used to a belt, this will take some time to get adjusted to, but it is far superior, for small jobs.

This item saves me so much time, I must waste 2 hours per weekend looking for the tape measure, pencil, hammer, or whatever that I layed down somewhere around here. It is well constructed and stands up to the rugged use that home projects sometimes call for. You can load it up or leave it light. I'm actually thinking of getting another one so I can have one setup for General Maitenance and another setup for specific projects. So now I'm always ready to tackle that Honey-do list that is now up to three pages long!

As a carpenter at a psychiatric hospital I need to keep my tools close to (if not on) me for obvious safety reasons. The pockets, and dual hammer loops keep all the tools, parts, and fasteners I need at hands reach. It also helps you work more efficiently (think of all the time you spend picking up individual tools set on the floor etc.).

I have purchased more than a half dozen of these fine aprons, but I haven't worn out any of them. These things wear like IRON! Unlke those other cotton work aprons that mysteriously morph into "baby bibs" upon their first experience with a washer/dryer, these duck aprons merely get softer and more comfortable this each cleaning. I pick up another one as they become too unslighlty for the hospital appearance standards from my wiping paint, caulk and construction adhesive on them.

I recently gave 2 of my older aprons to an appreciative couple of friends who are doing the total house rehab thing. They wonder how they ever operated without them! If all products performed as well as this it would be a better world!

What else can I say...I love it. The 'Super Bib' by Bucket Boss is GREAT!! It keeps everything I use on a regular basis handy, yet not in the way. Its rugged construction tells me its going to take the beating it surely will recieve while I wear it. And most important it is comfortable, and easy to maneuver around in. I can wear what I want, and not worry about having to change afterwards. I'm going to buy another one, for when I have someone over working in my shop with me.

I find this great, does not fit around neck, it is like pair of suspenders, will soften up after a couple of washes, all pockets roomy, a great all purpose apron made of tough material.

The bib material is A OK but the quick release buckle was of very poor quality and will not stay closed. I am currently looking for another buckle that I can have someone with a heavy duty sewing machine will replace.

I'm sure this apron works great for some jobs. But if your job requires you to ever bend down, in any way shape or form, be prepared to dump all your tools on the floor. Hopefully at that moment you won't be working over let's say a brand new hardwood floor.

I was really excited when I first saw this apron and it is one step up from wearing a framing belt when your doing finish work....but you must train yourself to hold onto EVERY tool when bending over. Maybe it didn't fit me well or something, but it didn't work for me. It now lives rolled up in the back of the truck.

I bought this apron and a couple others at Amazon and ended up returning all of them. On this model the neck is somewhat uncomfortable and the snap kind of cheap.

I ended up going to Sears where they have either the waist double row apron and bib apron made out of heavy cotton canvas for $5.99. The bib apron at Sears is all white.

This is a great product. Having already purchased 3 in the past, I recommend this product. It has plenty of pockets and pouches for all kinds of things. Its quite durable and light weight making it a pleasure to wear.
