BOCOMAL FR Shirts Flame Resistant 100% C NFPA2112 7.5oz Men's Fire Retardant Welding Shirt

My husband is a welder and bought these to try as a cheaper alternative to the name brands. He loves these shirts. They hold up well and he gets minimal burns from welding. He first went with the khaki and gray. They were thicker material and fit perfectly. Then he tried the navy and ash gray and they were thinner material and bigger. He went back to the khaki and it was better quality.

This shirt holds up very well to all types of abuse from welding, grinding and simply getting snagged on metal edges...

I don't understand the negative reviews of some welding with it and instantly getting burned by sparks. Not sure if these are from inexperienced welders and they're welding way too hot or what. I've built a firewood cart and finished up a small dump trailer while wearing this shirt, probably 30-45 min of total weld time, not one burn mark on it. I have welded many times in a short sleave shirt, yeah the sparks sting a little for a couple of seconds but my goodness, I didn't run around telling everybody I got an "ouchie". I mainly purchased this shirt to properly protect my arms from the UV coming off the weld. It was very dumb of me to ever weld in a short sleave shirt (one time in a wife beater, I didn't make that mistake twice). Every welding shirt I've had (expensive ones included), if a big enough spark lands in a fold or otherwise where it can't fall off, it's going to burn a hole through it, period. That is no reason to claim they aren't flame/fire retardant. These are FLAME/FIRE RETARDANT shirts, simply means they are difficult to set on fire. The other complaint I don't understand it about the shirts being too long or too big, they're welding shirts, they're supposed to be that way. I wear XL and ordered XL and it fit like I expected it too. Sleaves plenty long, shirt long and loose fit. I leave it on a hanger in the office of my shop and put it on over whatever shirt I'm wearing when I weld. Button down pockets are a must and these are great. When grinding or cutting I would have to put on my leather apron to keep from wearing out the front of the thighs on my jeans. This shirt is long enough to keep the sparks off my jeans. I wish this shirt had a sleeve pocket for marking tools, that is my only complaint. So, if you're new to welding, give this shirt a try. It will burn through in the right circumstances but that's welding for you.

Ordered a 2x to wear over my long sleeve under shirt. Item arived and I could wear it over a hoody and it still fit loose. Size seems to run large. Seems decent quality for the price, didn't use it yet though, returning for a smaller size.

I was looking for a welding shirt with snap fasteners. I have not done any welding in it yet, but this shirt is a good fit for my long arms. It looks great for general wear out in public. It appears to be quite durable and the snaps are great for my old fingers. I will soon be welding in it and am confident it will do the job.

A little long but overall a great buy and great shirt

It's heavy, but has good fit. I like the 2 flapped pockets. But it is not what I expect from FR material. Already have several holes that burned thru on the upper arm/elbow area.

I used for insulation works for HVAC sheet metal shop. it doesn't get my shirt itchy. save me a lot of money from buying more t-shirts. itchy stuff on welding sleeve will come off from washer.

Very nicely made, he was extremely happy. True to size. Thank you

La camisa queda bien solo los puños están extremadamente ajustados no puedo usar mi reloj pero en en lo demás se ve bien y si a soportado las chispas

Loved it

This is a comfortable safety item that can be worn all day on or offsite. Sizing is true and button snaps make it easy to get on and off.

A little heavy but will be better then coveralls. Fits to size large is large . All good nice product..
