Hi, I'm wondering about what you guys like best for a welding jacket. I have the cheap old leather apron, but don't really care for it. So, I'm looking for advice on a decent jacket to protect the clothing. Thanks.

Reply:I have the miller jacket with the leather sleeves and really like it. Their is also an apron sold separately that attaches to it. http://store.cyberweld.com/miwejacoja.html
Reply:I have a good leather jacket I wear when it's cool or I'm doing something that burns up my clothes. If it's really cold coveralls are in order. During warm weather it's just a pair of fire retardant sleeves added to my work colthes. I'm thinking about getting one of those cotton jackets with leather sleeves. If you get a full leather get one that at least has the shoulder area lined. It makes them easier to pull on.Tough as nails and damn near as smart
Reply:Just my personal preference. I have a full leather welding jacket and also a pair of arm leathers. Hate them both. I use the jacket as a welding blanket to protect what I don't want burned with splatter. Weighs about 40 lbs....at least it feels like it does when I am hot, or in a crowded space and can't bend my arms. I have a Carhartt cotton welding shirt. All snap buttons, two chest pockets. If I get a hot bb in the bend of my arm it might burn a small hole if it sits there for a minute. They fit like a tall, meaning they are longer in the front and back and sleeves. I wear it over my tee shirt or whatever everyday. Wash it once a month maybe. Wouldn't have anything but these shirts. Much cooler, more maneuverability, lighter, and just plain old makes me a happier, more relaxed and efficient welder.

Reply:When I started a welding course at local community college, none of the jackets fit me. So I bought one of these. I like it. Not too heavy.http://store.buyweld.com/bx9c.html
Reply:I got a leather arm jacket and full leather chaps. But I hardley ever use them, unless I got the welder cranked up to 350 amps or way out of postion or gourging. Just a thick long sleeve shirt and when its cold a sweat shirt.Lincoln 300 Vantage 2008300 Commander 1999SA250 1999SA200 1968Miller Syncrowave 200XMT350MPA/S-52E/xr-15Xtreme 12vs Millermatic 251 w/30A Millermatic 251 Dialarc 250 Hypertherm 1250 GEKA & Bantom Ironwokers

Reply:I have the Green welding shirts, they tend to get filthy from being under my truck. I also picked up the green apron that i throw over my legs when they are in harms way. cause apparently old ragged jeans are flamable

Reply:Ya, you know when your welding and you feel that little warm spot on you leg... then you think..."that weird 'It' usually fades away by now... " Then it starts getting warmer and warmer.... OH CRAP I"M ON FIRE!
