Customer Reviews
James Ellison
“I’ve worn Big Smith Rigid Indigo overalls on my farm every day for the past three years. They’ve taken everything from hauling hay in the summer to cutting firewood in the winter—and they’re still holding strong. The triple-needle stitching and thick denim are no joke. I especially love the tool pocket setup and how breathable the fabric is despite how thick it feels. Best workwear investment I’ve made.”
Loretta Sanders
“My husband and I both wear the Stonewashed Denim bibs for our landscaping business. We needed something durable but comfortable enough for 10-hour shifts in the sun. These are soft enough to move in, but still heavy-duty enough that we don’t tear through them like cheaper brands. Plus, they wash up great—no shrinkage or weird fading. Big Smith nailed it.”
Thomas R. Bennett
“I’m an old-school train enthusiast and got the Hickory Stripe bibs more for the look, but I was blown away by how well-made they are. Wore them to a volunteer restoration project in Tennessee and had several guys ask where I got them. Light, breathable, and the details are spot-on—from the brass hardware to the pocket layout. Feels like stepping back in time but with modern comfort.”
