Welding Jacket

Kind of related. I bought a welding blanket. Good to have, if you need to protect something when welding. Beats the various old bed sheets I use to keep dust off stuff in the shop.

Now, for summer welding work, I keep a denim shirt in the shop,, (the shirt is short sleeved)
and I use that shirt with these sleeves,,

I can take off the sleeves, and do other non-welding work.

When I use to ware those sleeves I had trouble keeping them to stay up so I bought these, clip one end on the sleeves the other on my T-shirt>>> Unisex Elastic Glove and Mitten Clips with Snowman Design Clip - 18 Colors | eBay

I use a leather vest. I've thought about sleeves but most of my welding is table work. Pretty easy to position myself or the project to avoid splatter.
I learned early on to wear work shoes. Burned a hole in my sneaker through my sock and left a nice BB size blister on my foot.
I think that was the first day with my new welder.

I have been wearing the Wrangler denim shirts for a long time. They burn up over time but they are comfortable and wear well for the past 50 yrs.
