Särmä Denim Overalls

Yeehaw! The coveted denim overalls are here! Also known as denim bibs or dungarees in the UK, these are armless and lightweight overalls with a loose cut, perfect for summer use. Remember: even without a shirt on you're not topless in these. Apart from casual use, these are durable enough for real work also.

Normal side slash pockets, large back pockets, and a hidden pocket behind the side seam and below the yoke. The front flap has two pockets for your tools 'n' flask. Adjustable braces: these are a bit fiddly, but once adjusted you don't have to touch them unless you decide to lend the overall to someone. Which is a bit weird. We also decided to put belt loops on these. You can run most 5 cm wide belts through or use them for hanging small stuff.

The only treatment these have had is the removal of starch, and that's it. It means they're also pre-shrunk, so you don't have to worry about that. The color is solid and even and the fabric isn't frayed all over like fashion junk too often is.

Material and care

The fabric is 98.7 % cotton, 1.3 % elastane, machine wash at 40 °C / 104 °F.

These are very comfortable and pretty hard-wearing. There's a slight stretch so these are very comfortable. The material weighs is 390 g/m² (11,5 oz/yd ²) and all metal parts are nickel-free.

Sizing and cut

Sized according to Särmä Common Jeans. The cut is loose, so your recommended size should not bind at all, no need to size up.

Detailed measurements in the chart below. These are the actual measurements from the garment, and remember the elastane.

Made in Finland/Estonia

The subcontractor is the Finnish company MASI - the paperwork is done here, while the sewing work and finishing washes are made just over the gulf in Estonia, still within the EU.
