Yyoooo! I dont even wanna hype it up because i dont want it to get more expensive but this thing is amazing. Durable. Welding 10” pipe 6010 1/8”, 6010 5/32”, 7018 1/8”
It keeps the heat down and the sparks just bounce off. Im on day 5-7
Most other shirts would’ve had holes already.
I need another one as back up.

This is THE MOST DURABLE jacket I have ever owned. I work in a shop that builds heavy agricultural equipment, running .052 MCAW. The only areas that have "worn out" (and keep in mind the sleeves are jacketed and have 2 layers) are spots that are constantly exposed to abrasion. I recommend these jackets to anyone and everyone that I can. If the day ever comes where I truly need a new one, I will not hesitate to bring my business back to Up In Smoke.

I was doing a lot of welding outdoors and in some tight spaces inside. Sometimes it is too hot for a full leather jacket. This is a great solution. I liked it so much I also bought one I Khaki. I wear one of those with the arm sleeves and I’m good to go.

I'm sorry. I wanted to support local. I bought this from Canada Welding Supply. I am a seasoned welder. Meaning I know how to direct my slag and sparks away from me. I figured I would splurge and by a "so called Top Line Shirt" this shirt with all the hype. Silicon infused. Blah blah blah. This is the worst shirt I have ever bought. I wish I had more time to discuss all the details. Buy a $65 9 oz Chinese shirt and it will last you 50 times longer than this high priced garbage. I have holes all through it. So much for sparks bouncing off. I was absolutely shocked. And those garbage sleeves. Multi layer fabric. Spark drops on arm. Instantly burns through. Then it's in there until it burns its way back out. I want my money back. Boooooo! All the hype. Garbage!
