Recommend me some mechanic's overalls that actually fit.

My old boiler suit has worn out after years of sterling service. Trouble is, it's cut for porky plumbers with big bellies and there's a lot of loose cloth around the middle so I want to find something a bit more tailored like garage mechanics wear. If it had something interesting like Campagnolo embroidered on the pocket or across the shoulders it would be a bonus!
You can never tell from online catalogue pictures so has anybody got a recommendation?

The paper CSI type suits, I think you can get from B&Q and Alexandra type shops and a marker pen

Dickies, snickers and dewalt do decent workwear. The dewalt trousers etc. make you look like Bear Grylls with all of the black hard wearing patches :thumbsup:

Just don't go around the garden climbing trees and eating frogs from the pond!

I'm sure Globalti uses his boiler suit for more manly jobs then bike fettling,but the thought of him donning said attire to mickle the chain does bring a smirk to my face :smile:
