No suit jacket, but insulated bibs.

Welcome anytime. Hootch is generally plentiful. Need about 24 hours notice for a good feed. Be advised, accomidations are a bit Spartan. Come prepared.

I am an Eagle Scout. I am always prepared.

Happy to have found this thread. Brought back memories of seeing both my grandfathers wearing bib overalls and a suit jacket. And always with a fedora, when outdoors of course.

I Purchased a roomy pair of "Bib N Brace" from "Freddies Of Pinewood" last year, I think they have discontinued them?

Great thread that I'll bring back to life hopefully!!!

I grew up wearing them off and on all of my life with granddaddys and uncles wearing overalls also.

Working for the Railroad, it's normal attire.
What I've gotten into in the last couple of years is buying American Made Overalls.

Two brands:

Round House, made in the old Railroad town of Shawnee, OK. Started in 1903!

Pointer Brand, made in my home state .... Bristol, Tennessee. Est. in 1913 they are manufactured under the name LC King.

Both are very high quality!

I wear denim and Hickory Stripped. I rarely put a tie on with a jacket, but will throw on a sports coat, either black or dark blue, when I go out or to a Masonic Meeting.

Being new to hats, my Stetson Open Road and Akubra Campdraft go fantastically with the attire.

I'll post a pic next time I throw on a jacket.

Nice looks. I like to wear a heavy plaid shirt over the overalls instead of a sportscoat.

I've got a couple heavy plaids and a denim Barn Coat. But don't have a really heavy plaid. Bet that's nice.

I wonder what a wool pea coat would look like? Ever seen that?

Personally, I wouldn't do that. But I bet someone could pull it off!

Your probably right! I'll save it for someone else to try too.

So had a meeting tonight. Usual Work attire, with the addition of the Dress Coat.

Pics are taken by a 12 year old, so it's making me look larger than life. Haha.

My shirt wasn't button all the way up in the first two pics, but I did button the top button before leaving the house.
