One-Strap Bib Overalls
 ✖  |
Jon Dana, a farmer in Mo., hated his bib overalls. He hated how one strap always fell down. He hated that he could never find his cell phone, which was usually at the bottom of his full pockets. And he hated that the waist adjustment was a button that either fit or didn't.
That's why he and his wife created the first pair of "Unibib" overalls in Sept. 2004. They have only one strap, a front pocket for the cell phone, a hammer loop, and tool pockets.
Jon's motto was that he wanted them to fit like jeans, stay up like bibs, and have pockets that fit the things he wanted to carry.
Now, son-in-law Mark Corwin runs Usi Clothing with that in mind. "The look of them attracts the attention but it's what they'll do for you that makes them great. We're not selling fashion," he says.
High quality velcro is the key to the single-strap bib overalls, thanks to the velcro pocket covers and one adjustable velcro strap on the waist. It also has a standard zipper fly.
Men's camouflage bib overalls are available for hunters with button-down pockets instead of velcro. "If you're hunting, you don't want to pull up a pocket with velcro and scare off whatever game you're hunting," Corwin notes.
The left and right handed brush and blue jean overalls come in mens and womens sizes. Because the velcro adjusts for two sizes, a guy needing a size 38 would order a size 38 to 40.
With straps fastened, the bib overalls are machine washable.
In early 2005, they will sell "kid size" bib overalls. Eventually, they will also sell white painter pants.
The denim bib overalls sell for $40 including S&H. Camouflage bib overalls sell for $50 including S&H.
