In this article we discuss the best work coveralls, bibs, and overalls made in the USA.

According to Filson, the Mackinaw wool fibers used in these overalls can be bent and flexed 20,000 times without breaking. In recent decades, most clothing companies have moved operations overseas to help reduce costs. Unfortunately, in many instances, this also reduces quality. In this article we will take a closer look at the best coveralls, bibs, and overalls made in the USA so that you can find a pair of USA bibs that fits your needs.

Filson USA Bib Overalls Filson is a clothing company based in Seattle WA that has a deep-rooted tradition in providing heavy-duty dependable workwear. Their founder, C.C. Filson, opened shop in 1897 and, at that time, specialized in making ultra-tough, ultra-dependable clothing for stampeders heading north for the Klondike Gold Rush. The Stampeders who marched north towards the Klondike region put their lives at risk in search of gold. The conditions in the Yukon were brutal. Winters were dark and devastatingly long. The stampeders faced blinding snow storms, avalanches, hypothermia, towering terrain, malnutrition, disease, and all the other perils of wilderness. It is estimated that out of the 100,000 people who set out to stampede for gold, only 30,000 actually made it to the Klondike region. Making clothes that could hold up in the sub-freezing wilderness meant C.C. Filson couldn't cut corners, and had to emphasize toughness and dependability. And although the Klondike Gold Rush has long since passed, that tradition of toughness and dependability has carried over to Filson's current collection of workwear and bibs. Not all of Filson's bibs are made in the USA, but a few are. And the cool thing is they offer some unique options that other USA bib companies don't offer. Here's what you need to know about their USA bibs: Filson Mackinaw Wool Bibs - These are the only wool bibs on this list. They are naturally water-resistant and have button gussets for easy movement. Filson boasts that the fibers in their wool bibs can be bent and flexed 20,000 times without breaking. Click here to view these wool USA bibs at Filson.com (affiliate link takes you to Filson.com). Pella USA Overalls As I mentioned earlier in the article, it is difficult to find manufacturers who make bibs and overalls here in the USA. The choices are limited. One company who still makes overalls here in the USA (in their Iowa factory) is Pella. Pella specializes in making veterinary apparel and supplies. As you maybe know, bib overalls are very popular among veterinaries. Yes, you might be thinking you're not a vet yourself. But the good news is many of the styles that Pella makes will work just fine as standard, everyday overalls. For example, their basic unlined men's overall (click here to view). This is a classic overall design with front chest utility pockets, and plenty of other pockets throughout. They are made with a poly/cotton blend. Pella also makes a heavyweight duck-cotton USA overall (click here to view). These bibs have a front flap chest pocket and are lined with a nylon-quilted insulation. Another cool thing about Pella is they make women's USA overalls. To my research and knowledge, this is one (if not the only) type of women's overalls made in the USA.

Topps by Pinnacle Safety Coveralls Made in the USA There are very few coveralls made in the USA. It is much easier to find bib overalls made in the USA that it is to find coveralls made in the USA. Topps was founded in Rochester, Indiana in 1938. Today they are owned by Pinnacle, and specialize in making flame-resistant coveralls and public-safety uniform coveralls. Here is what a pair of their flame-resistant coveralls looks like: Topps has a wide selection of USA coveralls, including both short-sleeve and long-sleeve versions.

Although both will have a break-in period, in my experience, nylon can take a bit longer to break in. If you need a durable duck fabric, read more by visiting our article about the best insulated duck coveralls. Hood Do you need an attached hood with your coveralls? Although many coveralls just come with a collar, there are a few brands that build coveralls with an attached hood. To read more, visit our article about the best hooded insulated coveralls. Pockets Although most coveralls and overalls made in the USA have chest pockets, this can vary brand to brand. If you need to maximize pockets, that means you are probably looking for coveralls that not only have front chest tool pockets, but also have leg utility pockets. Most of the options above have plenty of pockets since they are built for workers. Noise If you are concerned about noise, many of the popular outdoor brands use fabric that minimizes noise. Rugged nylon and cotton duck fabrics may be tough, but they can also be noisy - especially nylon duck. Waterproof Not all insulated coveralls will be waterproof. Many will have at least a water-repellent finish (which means it repels light precipitation). If you need true waterproof coveralls, you may need to stick with an outdoor brand. Many of those brands prioritize water protection. USA Workwear In this article we discussed the best coveralls, bibs, and overalls made in the USA. If you are interested in products made in the USA, consider our other articles: Best Work Pants Made in the USA Best Rubber Boots Made in the USA Best Logger Boots Made in the USA Best Wedge Work Boots Made in the USA Reinforced Heels When buying overalls and coveralls made in the USA, be sure to consider the back of the leg openings. These areas take on a lot of wear, mainly due to boot friction. This is especially an issue if you have insulated coveralls with leg zippers. If you leave the leg zipper slightly un-zipped near the boot, it can cause the legs to fit baggy over the boot, and creates more opportunities for the leg opening to wear out. I'd recommend buying coveralls and overalls that have the reinforced heels.
