Troubleshooting

Water appears to be soaking into the fabric

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may have worn off; consider re-treating the garment with an appropriate outdoor fabric spray.

Shoulder straps sliding or coming loose

Ensure the ski-lock mechanism is fully engaged and no fabric is caught in the buckle teeth.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof protection for wet-weather tasks
  • Highly durable due to nylon oxford reinforcements
  • Breathable design prevents overheating during active use
  • Easy to put on and take off thanks to access zips
  • Secure fit provided by adjustable shoulder straps and cuffs

Cons

  • Material is synthetic polyester, which may feel different than cotton
  • Requires careful maintenance to ensure waterproofing remains intact
  • Limited color range focused on outdoor utility tones

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your bib & brace, adjust the ski-lock shoulder straps until the waist panel sits comfortably against your torso, ensuring the straps do not dig into your shoulders. Adjust the cuff fastenings over your work boots to ensure a tight seal against mud and rain.

For care, wipe down surface mud with a damp cloth after each use. When a deeper clean is required, refer to the garment tag for manufacturer-recommended machine wash settings, typically requiring a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can strip the waterproof coating. Ensure the garment is fully air-dried before storage.
