    I concur, inspiring.  Just ordered my "Chef Brandon" apron.

    I have two aprons.  One from The Carnivore restaurant in Nairobi and one from The Carnivore restaurant in Johannesburg.  I prefer the one from Nairobi as it looks like a zebra skin so it matches the thong I wear under it.

     Do any of you wear one? 
    I have a few made by Roundhouse that I use as shaving aprons. Several times a year you can catch them on sale for less than 20 bucks. I also wear Roundhouse overalls. All Roundhouse products are American made so that’s the brand I stick with.

    No disrespect @RRP .  I expected to see this pic when reading the thread, as it always makes me smile.

    Thanks - now for the newbies here please let me explain.  This style apron is what my Father wore for several years when he was a "farrier" in his blacksmith shop in Iowa in the 40's and 50's.

    I bought this one and wear it PROUDLY in memory of my Father.


     


    Nice homage to your father. I don't notice a difference between that apron and a regular blacksmith apron, not that I know much about blacksmith aprons. Is there a difference in pockets, or places to set tools?

    I wear one when I eat cuz a napkin just doesn't stay tucked into my shirt.

    The greatest mind that world has ever known wears an apron. Behold, the great and powerful Donald “The Truth” Trump on the left sporting an apron.

    I wear a leather apron when I work in my woodshop. The basic brown woodworker kind as opposed to the Village People kind.

    I have 2 new shaving aprons on order as we speak. I go through them pretty quick when doing nether region shaves with a straight or shavette.

    So...does one wear a shaving apron over the shaving overalls? Or, does one just wear a shaving apron on the chance shave when one isn't wearing the shaving overalls?

    How do you shave your nether regions when it’s covered by an apron? Does it have a glory hole of sorts stitched into it?

    I am seriously troubled.  I was just posting the same sentiment, then I saw you beat me to it.  My non-liberal creds are really being called into question.

    It’s ok.  I’m still registered as a republican, I don’t know how liberal I am because I haven’t taken the test yet, but I’m sure AF staying away from whatever today’s GOP has been smoking.

    I've been wearing one when I cook at the stove of late, mostly to protect against oil splatter.
