My husband has your cross-back shop apron and wears it for all projects. When he is on the lathe, the pockets get lots of shavings in them. This apron is much more appropriate and will alleviate that issue.

I received one as a gift and have really liked using it so we're getting one for my dad. The high neck stops chips from going down my shirt, but is soft enough that it doesn't cause any comfort issues. The apron is nice and long as well as wide so my other clothes are well-protected, too. I think it's a nice design overall and the light-weight nature of it only adds to the benefits.

Apron does a very nice job of keeping shavings and dust off your clothes. Comfortable to wear for hours at a time. Soft neck guard removes with Velcro. A pocket or two on the front would be a big help.

Woodturners apron
After doing a large turning, I found my pockets full of wood shavings. When I saw this apron, it looked like a great idea so I bought one. It worked extremely well for keeping my pockets shaving free, plus there are handy pockets for a pencil and scale.

Great Apron
I use it for wood carving and turning. When I sit and carve It's long enough to cover below my knees and heavy enough to protect from sharp things and saw dust/wood chips.

Works very well!
This wood turner's apron is a great value and it offers outstanding performance. It fits my neck just fine and keeps shavings out of my shirt. The straps are just like those used on barber's aprons and keep it close to your body. The newer ones have pen pockets. I should have bought one some time ago!

Works after being modified
I bought this after reading all the reviews. Here is my advice.
1. If you are not large, you will need to modify the neck Velcro. Had my wife add more Velcro so that it will close snuggle around the neck.
2. pencil pockets. great for collecting chips. Had my wife sew the tops shut, seeing they are useless.
3. straps behind, needs some major adjustment. had to add masking tape to help organize the straps.
Yes - hard to up on, but if you turn green logs where chips rain everywhere, this apron will do a good job of not getting your pockets full of chips. As long as you are aware of the short comings of this apron on purchase, it is a good buy. Do not expect to be happy with it right out of the box. Chance are, it will need some alteration to work for you.

Denim Woodturner's Apron
It is a good value for the money and it does what it is supposed to. It is a little difficult getting on and off. It is really good on cold days in the shop, the soft collar feels great, I hope the Velcro holds up and I don't have any expectation that it won't. You got to learn to put it on, if you have it on you will not get wood shavings or chips down your shirt. The denim is heavy duty stuff.
The price makes it a better choice for me over the price of a turner smock and it really does about the same job. I recommended it.

Works pretty well.
Does the job. I wear it 90% of the time I'm in my shop, regardless of what I'm working on. I take the collar off unless I'm turning something. It does a pretty good job keeping my clothes clean and it's a lot easier to put on than a pair of coveralls. Just slip your head through the straps, grab the clip/buckle hanging from the strap on one side, bring it behind your back to the other side of the clip/buckle on the other. It fastens with one of those plastic, push-to-click (fastex) buckles like you might see on a backpack. A lot easier than trying to tie a string behind your back.
-Taking the collar on and off is pretty easy.
-The straps in the back *feel* a little cheap, but I have no doubts that they'll hold up and are more than adequate for the job.
-There's plenty of excess strap since it's one size fits all. I'm about 5'9", 180lbs and I have to use a rubber band or zip tie to keep the extra length out of the way. (I suppose I could just cut the extra length off, but as soon as I do that I'll probably start gaining weight and need a longer strap :)

The quality is excellent. Unfortunately I do not like anything around my neck so this is for those who are learning to turn pens
Excellent customer service

One size does not fit all...
I am a small man and had to have this altered to be able to fit me. Just a few design changes could have eliminated this extra cost. The neck area is still too large for me and I haven't figured out how to best fix this problem. Overall I like apron. It could have had a pocket on the inside surface at the edge and be used for small measuring tools, marking instruments, etc. Overall a 4 star is warranted but design problems does not rate 5 stars.

The two shortcomings I find are:...
The two shortcomings I find are: 1. A lack of pockets. Where and when was it decided that a pen/pencil pocket, combined with another that size, was adequate? I couldn't have too many pockets in my aprons. Please add pockets, and 2. The Velcro around the neck will not adequately tighten to keep out chips. My neck is 18", surely at least average, but I have had to add Velcro to tighten the neck adequately. That said, I love the apron. It's the best thing I have seen for turning, and I have tried many things. The above two fixes would give it a solid 5!

Comfortable, sturdy and fairly easy to put on and take off once you figure out how the straps really work.The collar keeps chips and dust from going down the neck of my shirt, and my body really appreciates the difference! Yeah, it could stand to be another 6-12" wider at the hips, but I could stand to be 6-12" narrower at the hips, too.Additional comments added on 12/30/2010I'd suggest, now that I've used it a dozen times or more, that the breast pocket have six spaces or even four, but not just two. pencils, pens, other things go well there...and no offense intended, but if the velcro scratches your neck, you've got it on backwards or inside-out. the velcro straps, if aligned anywhere near straight, don't come close to your neck...sorry...and if you have trouble putting it on, leave the back straps attached when you take it off and just pull it over your head to put it on, or have your wife/partner/someone help you.

The covering of the apron is fine, but having to blindly reach back to fasten the snap clasp is awkward. The biggest problem is that there is no way he keep the straps from pulling back through the slots when fitting it over the head.
