Kirk these are in the prototype phase and once decided, it will be 6-8 weeks before they are made.

I don't have one in front of me right at the moment, but I believe they were heavily stitched on the corners of the pockets, and if they are not when i get back to the office on Monday and double check, we can always put in a request to have it done ..that's what is great about prototypes..before we go into production, we get a chance to look at the pros and cons ... this batch was made much longer than the last as too much leg was exposed (lol) or you could still get too dirty... if you also notice we put less material up top as it is not needed and will only make you hot in the summer months ... more to examine and think about before the final order goes in, but thanks to everyone taking a look and commenting so we can bring you exactly what you want

Re: 3 new apron prototypes ..whch one do you like?

What about a Velcro loop on the top for the power cord? I thought that was a good idea on the Edge apron.
BTW - Whichever's the lightest material gets my vote.

we found the loop to be a PIA ... putting it in taking it off ... being able to put your machine down and walk away or answer the phone or use the bathroom ...I've always just thrown the cord over my should when working on the roof, hood or trunk, but prefer to let it hang when working the sides...

the velvet smooth (green) seems the lightest but the waffle weave was also pretty light and very different

Never had the Edge apron myself so the loop LOOKED like a good idea but I guess in reality....nope.
If the waffle weave is a lightweight material, I'd prefer the waffle weave - even tho I voted for the glass MF.

Re: 3 new apron prototypes ..whch one do you like?

I like the coral colored one.

How about a robe? that way I could polish in just my speedo and dress socks without offending the neighbors?
