    Nothing sticks to my AAW smock. I shake the dust off and wash it every 2 to 3 weeks.

    Never put off until tomorrow what you can do the day after tomorrow.

    To succeed in life, you need three things: a wishbone, a backbone and a funnybone.

    I've got a smock made by the same folks that make the AAW smock, and the only thing sticking to it is super-glue...

    But dang the thing is hot!

    It'd be nice to have something that covered well enough, shed the dust, AND would breathe, and not be so hot.

    2$ ventilated windbreaker from Goodwill with the sleeves cut off. Zip up collar and side pockets. After a couple years of roughing green wood it probably could use a washing.... but I would only mess it up again.

    I'm with Faust... bought two 100% cotton twill work shirts, one short sleeve and one long sleeve. Granted, they don't have the pockets in the back, but the two on the front do have flaps. A good shake and they're reletively clean.

    Baxter, you wouldn't want to mess up that nice patina you have accumulated over those two years anyway!

    I have a nylon (flag material) smock made by Kay Leonard, kayl99417@gmail.com, wife of John. I also have a pair of shoe covers out of same material to keep shavings out of shoe laces. I recommend both. She had a booth at SWAT last year and I expect she will be there agian. Smock is $25 and shoe covers are $10 to best of my memory.
