The name Carhartt says quite a bit on its own, there's a reason that so many people wear their products. These bib overalls are another rugged and attractive product. Their construction is high quality and so is the materials they're made from. But make sure that you choose a bigger size than you might buy from another manufacturer. I normally wear a 36 or 38 inch waist and these 40 inch waist overalls are just a tad snug. The suspender clips are strong, but can be slightly more difficult to fasten and unfasten than the wire over button fasteners on other brands. But these pants are made to last, standing up to a lot of abuse. People hard on the knees of their pants will appreciate the doubled up design. In spite of the heaviness of the materials, the overalls are comfortable to wear, although it will take a few washings and days of wear to "break them in." I like that they're colorfast even with their rich color. Washing them doesn't tint other clothes in the wash with them like other new clothes have done to me. Better yet, their cut and style don't make me look like a walking Tootsie Roll.
