Practical and comfortable, bibs are a great way to protect your clothes – and yourself – from bad weather, paint, dirt, wear and tear. This incredibly versatile type of clothing can be worn in virtually all conditions and helps to provide an extra layer of protection just when you need it most.
Choosing American made bibs will help to ensure the items you invest in are well designed, well made and built to last. To help you find the perfect American made bib overalls for your needs, we’re taking a closer look at some of the best products on the market.
Best Bibs for Visibility
Visibility is often a very important consideration for those working outside. Generally, the more visible you are, the safer you are, so investing in clothes that make it easy for people to see you in all conditions is essential.
These Increased Visibility High Bib Trousers from ExtremeGard are perfect for people working in dark, gloomy conditions. Reflective stripes on the chest and legs help to ensure you’re easily seen by colleagues and passing traffic while the insulated fabric will help to keep you warm while you’re working outside.
Best Bibs for Cold Weather
When working outside in winter weather, the right clothing is absolutely essential. Helping to keep you warm and dry as well as safe and secure, American made insulated bib overalls will help to protect you from the worst of the rain, snow and wind when you’re on the job.
These High Visibility High Bib Trousers from ExtremeGard are ideal for winter weather. Incredibly well insulated, they have a comfort rating of +30°F to -50°F. This means that they’ll keep you warm and comfortable in even the coldest winter storm. The bib trousers are bright yellow and have high-vis stripes on the chest and legs. They’re also water resistant, so should help to keep you dry as well as warm.
ExtremeGard also makes WarmUp High Bib Trousers specifically for cold weather working. The water-repellent shell helps to keep the rain out, while the fully breathable fabric allows sweat to wick away from the body quickly and easily, keeping you comfortable. The 7.5 oz high performance insulation has a comfort rating of +50°F to 0°F, making them the ideal American made winter bibs for cold conditions.
Best Bibs for Hot Weather
While American made insulated bibs may be perfect for winter weather and cold climates, they’re less useful if you’re outdoors in the summer months. Even in warm weather, bibs can be a good way to protect your clothes from daily wear and tear.
Some of the best American made men’s bibs for hot weather working are these Brown Duck Bib Overalls from Round House. Triple-stitched seams ensure the bib overalls are tough and durable, while a fantastic choice of pockets and hoops make the bibs practical for all professions.
If you’re working outdoors, these Round House Men’s Camouflage Bib Overalls are another good option. Made from a hard-wearing cotton and poly-cotton blend, they have reinforced pockets, triple-stitched seams and reinforced buttons.
Best Bibs for Painters and Decorators
Painters and decorators often wear bibs while at work in order to protect their clothes from paint, varnish and other hard to remove stains. These Painter Bib Overalls from Round House are specifically designed to help keep your clothes free of drips, drops and splashes as you work.
The wide brush loop gives you somewhere to put your tools, while the painter designed bib pocket ensures the product is perfectly suited to the job. Triple-stitched seams and reinforced buttons help to guarantee these American made men’s bib overalls are built to last, while the heavyweight 9.5 oz natural drill material will help to prevent paint, varnish and other materials soaking through the bib to your everyday clothes underneath.
Best Bibs for Wet Weather
Working in wet weather can be cold, uncomfortable and potentially dangerous. Investing in good quality American made work bibs will help to keep the worst of the rain, sleet and snow at bay and ensure you feel dry and comfortable when you’re on the job.
While few bibs are 100% waterproof, there’s a good choice of bibs that are water resistant. These ExtremeGard Trousers have a 420-denier water-repellent, high density Pac Cloth nylon shell, 11.25 oz high performance insulation and a full side zipper with storm flap. Match these bibs with a King Louie Elements Rain Jacket or a ExtremeGard Increased Visibility SubPolar Jacket for the ultimate wet weather work outfit.
Best Denim Bibs
Denim is a very popular material for bib overalls as it’s durable, comfortable and relatively lightweight. Well suited to warm weather and indoor conditions, American made denim bibs will help to protect your clothes and give you great flexibility while you’re at work.
These Round House Low Back Zipper Fly Overalls are made from heavyweight 100% pre-shrunk cotton and 12.0 oz denim. They have a 5-in-1 bib pocket, reinforced back pocket and a hammer loop. The dark denim finish ensures these bibs don’t stain easily and will look good while you’re hard at work.
If you’re looking for a slightly lighter weight option, these Round House Hickory Stripe Denim Bib Overalls are a good choice. Brighter in color and made from a lighter denim, they’ll help to keep you cool and comfortable, as well as protected, while you’re on the job.
