I just hate it when I get sawdust all in the truck

Yeah, I hear ya. I only have one car/truck so that means I have to use it for double duty. I like the fact that I don’t look or smell like a contractor/tradesperson when I’m not working, and it’s embarassing to go smelling like sawdust cuz I had to drive my truck. I dunno, that was prolly a rant but you get the idea.
I keep a couple of bath towels on my truck seat so when I get in dirty it doesn’t get on the seat. When I get dust in there I simply shake off the towels outside.

I was thinking about getting seat covers from CT, but I was hoping that if I could help prevent dust/small airborne particles from sticking to my clothes, that would be AWESOME and worth throwing money at. I am not interested in getting a pair of pants that I can get dirty cuz I got lots of those, just wanted to see if there’s anything special or different materials from pant to pant. “Denim” like is useless to me, just traps more particles. I was thinking maybe the painting ones, you could wash paint off easier? I dunno, prolly not.

These days, hard to get good seat covers as they have been redesigned to not interfere with the air bags that are built in to seats.

— Glenn Bottingi have actual seat covers for my front and rear seats.. the middle front seat gets folded down to act as a arm rest which i cover with a bath towel .. once every couple weeks it goes into the wash.. the seat covers themselves about once every 6 weeks

Well I only have one ride too. I no longer care what anyone thinks of me and I’m a carpenter on and off the job. I like the smell of sawdust.

This is when I wish we could thank posts here. Well said sir.
Sorry if I offended, I always smell like sawdust also. I was just curious to see if they are any “better” than using cheap disposable coveralls. The Blakladers are not cheap, I don’t spend that much on dress pants, lol, so I was just wondering what the big deal is…

@yellaD It’s the convenience of the multi-pockets,the durablility, and the knee pads. I wear a bag around my neck, plus a tool belt, have things stuffed in my jeans pockets, and every knee in my jeans are gone…literally holes. I gave up on perfume or smelling good a long time ago at the end of the day. Sawdust is a fashion for me…..in my Clothes, purse and hair.
@jkirk I think we are almost ready for version 2.0
Congrats on nearing the end of the thread! I’m sure we will fill many new pages. My fav work gear.

Do you think we’ll ever see other blaklader gear on the list?
I would be willing to try other stuff they have. The quality is definitely there, my whole issues so far are just getting myself acclimated to the pants.

They are a little different and definitely take some getting used to. I’d like to try a different model, so far I have the x1900 and the heavy worker pants.
hard to say if we see anything new from them. maybe some new styles of shorts or pants are possible.. depends on how good a relationship jim has with the folks at blaklader. the hoodies would be nice to see on the list especially since they seem to be hard to get in stores

I don’t know on how many occasions I have pulled out change and with it was a pile of concrete and concrete sand.

I think you guys need a new wallet, I just bought the DM-1 to replace mine. It is by far my favourite wallet of all time.
