Just a word of caution to anyone thinking of buying anything from gerbers workwear. Let me tell you a bit about my experiences these past few weeks. On a friday I went into gerbers workwear i specifically stated that I needed a pair of coveralls for welding class at school. the showed me some different sizes but they were all the same kind I bought a pair for $40.00 on a monday I took them to school put them on put on my welding mask and started welding just then out off the corner off my eye I saw a huge flame quickly i stopped and ripped off my mask and put out the fire with my leathe glove a lot of the sleeve was burned and my sweater was slightly singed. To my suprise i found out i had been sold polyester coveralls. When i got home I called gerbers they said they had to talk to the main office in Atwood. I was not called back so i called again I was told nothing could be done . So i called atwood myself and asked for the manager I explained what had happened and all he said was thats not my problem I told him I said I needed them for welding he says should have bought cootton ones I reply those were the only ones their and the employee didnt say ohh u shouldnt use these for welding their polyester he reply's not my problem.... need less to say I will never buy from gerbers again
