Adam is thrilled to show off his Savage Industries workshop apron, which he designed and prototyped as a One Day Build this past summer! Based on your feedback and comments, Adam and the makers at Mafia Bags have turned his apron project into a real product, made of durable green canvas and soft brown leather. Adam shows off its various features and the thought process behind each design decision, and can't wait to see makers wear these in their own workshops!

Are you actually making money on this? This seems like a crazy good deal considering it's made in SF
Just got to the comment about low margins, and it totally makes sense!
And suddenly everyone's question of 'Why isn't Adam wearing the apron he was so proud of in recent video's?' has been answered. The original was probably off for the production model to be patterned from XD!
Do you have plans to sell a pattern like you do with the EDC?
Haha perfect for using and then adding the not-so-successful merit badges as you use build
"I can take a leak without taking it off." Priorities! I like it.
I mean, _technically_ you can do that with any apron...
@@russwilliams8274 Technically you can do it with any clothes you wear, it just might not be that comfortable afterwards. ;-)
So then the flair he means should be a bottle opener ...
@@johncware66 I mean they have a solution for that.
I'm an artist, not really a maker, but I admire the quality of the materials this apron is made of. I would buy one to paint in because the pockets on the chest would be functional for holding brushes and further down the bib the individual hand pockets could hold in use tubes of paint. Also, I love that you designed it to bear witness to it's use. I have a collection of pallettes that I no longer use on the regular, but I can't bear to part with them because they are witness of my process and tell a story all their own. I am as attached to them, as I am atached to my people. As soon as I can afford one of these aprons, I will be buying one. Also, I was born in Cali, so there's that connection too.
My wife gave me an autographed one for Christmas this year. The quality is top notch and the autograph is too cool. Can’t wait to wear it on my next build! Thank you, Adam, for making it possible for us to own one too!
I'm getting one because my name is also Savage and it will come stock with my name on it ;)
I would totally do this if it applied to me.
Lucky bastard! My name is Brian Civilized :(
@@slaphappyduplenty2436 The opposite of Adam Savage must be Eve Civilized, one would think?
@@obroni Sounds about right.
Damn Brian! My last name isn't Savage but, I'm getting one too!
The wife just bought one for me for my birthday and I couldn't be happier with it! I'm 5'7" and ordered the medium; after very quick adjustments to the strap it fits like it was custom-made for me. Brilliant design, extremely durable and well-made, and it helps to support my favorite channel. Bravo, Adam! Bravo!
"For a maker every tool is loveable and important to him."
maker lol
Also "every tool's a hammer"
Wow, was not expecting the price to be so low for the quality. Looks great and I cant believe its so affordable
especially considered its made in Cali, and uses premium materials and design....just crazy
Adam, you and the mythbusters are half of the reason I'm fighting through an engineering degree. I admire you so much, you are the pinnacle of "do what you love". Thank you for decades of wonder and talent, you are a gift to the world.
I love his energy! That pure happiness that he gets is infectious.
The split leg feature is very useful for ceramicists who throw pots. I remember having to improvise an apron out of an old pair of jeans that I basically cut the back off and added a bib and straps tied through the belt loops because it was virtually impossible to find a ready made apron with split legs in 2005. Don't do ceramics any more but I am very much attached to my old apron from the big box craft store I worked at who decided cross back strapped aprons were too costly and switched to neck loops. Wished I'd grabbed a few more.
Thank you!! I loved it, and currently use a general leather apron that saved me on a table saw kick-back. It dented the leather, and bruised me, but I was fine. I'm currently unemployed due to Covid (although I maintain my subscription), but when I get a job this will be on my docket of things to get. Thank you for all you do for the community.
In addition to being a bit of a maker and my own mechanic, I am also a car detailer. In my detailing I always need to be carrying brushes, towels, spray bottles, flashlights, small wooden skewers, cotton swabs, etc. Inevitably, on just about every detail I do, I set down a brush, forget where it is, and spend 15 minutes looking for it. Ever since seeing Adam make this apron, I've thought "Man, that would be nice to keep track of all my detailing tools while I'm working on a car..." and lo! Its available! I hit that preorder so fast. haha. I can't wait to get it!
Bought and paid for. I'm so happy to be fortunate enough to purchase something that Adam has designed. Thank you Adam and everyone at Tested for being so great.
I wore a split leg apron for over a decade. I can offer one bit of advice. Move the clips for securing the leg flaps to the outside of the flaps. This will keep the clips from snagging on each other as you move. The same reason spur buckles are to the outside of the foot.
I just got a job as a CNC machinist, and I'll definitely be buying one of these. I wanted one so bad when you made it and now I can get one! I'm so excited!
I am so glad you guys add a left handed hammer loop being a lefty and always having to adapt to a right hand work can be difficult and sometimes painful (I am looking at you right hand scissors) I will be getting one ASAP
Adam in an apron looks like a chef to me. "What does he bake?" I hear you ask.
Awesomeness. Pure, uncut, AWESOMENESS!
I remember the vid where you made that apron, and I was very impressed with the design. All of the changes between your original prototype and the new prototype are predictable - canvas for the hammer loops, nylon webbing for the main and leg straps, quick-release buckles on the legs instead of snap loops, plastic D-rings for the main straps instead of punching through the canvas, and leaving out the small leather patches where the straps connect on the chest. All simple, and none making any difference in the longevity or effectiveness of the product, but all saving a lot of time and energy in manufacturing.
All in all, it's a very well done shift from a one-off personal product to a production product.
Features I'd suggest adding in future versions:
* metal strip for a tape measure to clip on (somewhere)
* loops across the chest pocket, like the hammer loops, to hold safety glasses
* 2-inch hook and loop (the fuzzy side) fields above and below the chest pocket; for patches, name tapes, company logos, etc.
* (4x) 1-inch D-rings, plastic or metal would work, for misc stuff like key rings and retractable ID reels; two locations:
---->along the back edge, above the hammer loops
---->on the chest where the main straps connect
Just received one for my birthday today! You're my hero, Mr. Savage. Thanks for doing what you do.
Can't wait to see people personalise their own. Especially when they start sewing on their Tested patches. Scout for life!
My mother-in-law bought me one for Christmas. Can not wait for it to get here.
I've been admiring your apron in previous episodes! Very exciting to hear that this is official Savage swag now :D
ORDERED!!! Been wanting one of these ever since Adam made his! Can't wait to get mine now!
7:46 Zero pieces of flair is the minimum, but some people choose to wear more, and we encourage that...
Happy to see that someone else picked up on the Office Space ref 😎
Yeah this is one of my fav items that you’ve made. It’s on my list to buy for sure. Thanks for making these available.
Your workshop is DROOL-WORTHY! All three of us (myself, hubs, and 15 year old son) are into tools and building stuff! Can’t wait to settle (we’re USAF) soon and get a proper workshop set up.
Got mine! I'm excited to take my apron through my own Blade Runner blaster build in progress!!! Thanks for all you do, Adam.
Great news, just mailed the shop team about the apron. If they confirm that it is also fitting for king size makers, I will order one.
As soon as/if I get my bonus paycheck will buy one of these...have been drooling for one since Adam made his!!!...is so funtional and look confortable...because I did the same split leg modification long ago to a regular shop apron...long gone by now because I keep ripping them apart!!! Thanks Adam for doing this!!!
Bought one for my husband for Xmas!! Excited to see it in person! Cool design and it should be great for all his projects!
Plier Racks for drawers.
And power tool charge stations/rack. (PVC is cool too.)
2 really good ideas for really cheap really reall useful tool tips. Ones that you yourself can really appreciate.
I love this apron so much - thank you for making it, and for sharing so much of the process.
Thank you for the apron and the video, I have one ordered but it's great to get a video tour of it. I can't wait to wear it while architectural model making at work!
If I wasn’t almost finished with the one I am making for myself, I would order one. But I do not need the split skirt as I work with very small pieces and am always pleased when the “skirt” catches what I drop, ( I had a stroke a few years ago and have a hard time hanging on to small parts,) and not having to search the floor for it. Thank you for all of your tips, tricks and ideas! Cyn
I sent my wife the link to this saying I thought it would be cool to have one with Adams signature. She said that it was too expensive for a Christmas gift and that she wasn't sure how much I would wear it. OH THE TRICKERY!!! She ordered it right away. I have not had the opportunity to wear it as much as I would like, but this is an heirloom item that I plan to pass down to my son one day and I have a whole lot of projects planned before I give it to him! My wife asked my thoughts on having the signed version and that it may make me not want to actually use it. I told her that Adam would have it no other way and that if you ever could not see the signature because of it's use it would be a testament to what he would want! (I plan to sew a flap of leather over the signature to protect it at least a little bit)
So excited for mine!!!!! Can't wait. I have been wanting one ever since your video! So excited! :D
Can’t wait to get mine! Love the design and glad to shop local!
Thank so much or making this. Pre-Ordered!
Brought a tear to my eye. Keep up the good work.
I'm planning to add "wings" to the sides of the chest level of mine when it arrives, because I am both female AND wider than Adam is, so there is more frontage to get dirty/get hit with fragments from doing things.
If you look at the America's Test Kitchen footage, the women have aprons that are different than the men; this is no doubt why.
When I ordered, there were not different sizes on the ordering page, so I'll have to figure out which size would be best -- only learned about this change from comments here.
I'm totally getting one and I'm pumped you left room on it for me to add a magnetic pad for screws and nails!
This is awesome and inspiring! Thank you Mr. Savage!
I have the Savage Industries tape measure as part of my personal EDC. It's very high quality and has already absorbed a lot of abuse from me. Also, the ordering process was fantastic. They didn't have the tape measures in stock when I decided to order one so I sent an e-mail, not only did I get a prompt reply they also e-mailed me when the items were back in stock, and again at each step of the process until I got the tape measure. I covet this apron.
I want one. Absolutely need one!
OMGoodness, I LOVE that you are making this available. I have been looking for one and striking out on everything I try. I pre-ordered it, Hope they come quick :) Happy holidays!
Getting one of these for my birthday is on the short list I gave my wife. But more importantly, with Adam making this apron, he has effectively achieved his desire to become J.F. Sebastian from Blade Runner
Fantastic design. Please Adam, make a leather free version.
It's great for you to get a design made for sale!
Like it a lot!
👍👍👍
In regards to a neck loop on aprons, I totally agree. When I worked at the Big Box Hardware Store that wears orange aprons; the first thing I’d do when putting a new apron into service was to cut the loop and the ties off and replace them with suspenders. Total game changer,
I have a similar apron and one of my favorite features is a strong magnet on the chest. I stick drill bits and screws to myself for quick access. Potential upgrade?
Maybe a velcro patch panel, where one can stick anything.
For instance in your case, you stick a velcro magnet there
That's great until someone with a pacemaker buys one... Good idea though
Well, one of adams philosophies is making improvements to oyur own tools isnt it?
@@rugvedk109 seems like a pretty easy DIY upgrade
I have one of those magnets you can wear on your wrist that has been really handy, you could wrap it around one of the straps to have it on your chest. I also realize I'm old because of how excited I got over an apron.
Yay!!! The moment I saw the one day build I was like “I wish he would sell thoes” and voila!!! So stoked
I love the apron and I love how forward you are about it being your own product!
Adam always just brightens my day.
Thanks for this Adam!
Ordered! Thanks for creating an awesome product!
Preordered mine halfway through the vid... cant wait to get it.
Seeing someone so excited about the thing they've made for everyone is so inspiring
I love the Office Space reference "flash is not required..."
Love your enthusiasm Adam.
This is fantastic! When I saw the video come up on my feed, I thought, wow, I would like to buy one.... then I watched the video. I can order one now. Hurray!
Happy to know these are for sale! I have wanted one like yours since you made it. Headed over after video to buy one.
Thanks again for sharing this on TH-cam I would’ve never known you had it otherwise I checked your website a couple weeks ago and it wasn’t there. I’ll have to keep my eyes peeled for the next new item.
I preordered and can't wait to get it! I've never came across an apron that really had features that seemed worth the cost.. I think this one will satisfy all my needs at a great price! 😎 Thanks for making this happen Adam!
LOVE this! For years I've ruined jeans and other pieces of clothing with paint, wood glue, etc. due to my very infrequent making schedule and hatred of uncomfortable apron. This will be at the top of my wishlist for my birthday this coming June.
NEEEEEEED and will be ordering one!!
OH!! HELLS to the YES!!!
When my mature student grant comes in in Feb I will sooooooo be snagging one of these!!!!!!
All the way from (at that time) semester 2 of 2, year 1 of 5 in my first degree program (MEng Aerospace) here in the UK @ 41 years of age.
Just got my apron in the mail. It's everything I hoped for and fits better than any apron I've ever worn before. Thanks Adam and Tested!
I love your excitement for this project/product. I hope I can get one at some point!
I fell in love with that apron on the one day build as soon as you announce it would be a product available I bought 1 when the 1st batch was announced, As a welder, machinist, leather worker and gunsmith. This beautiful apron will be put through the rigours of my daily work when it arrives
Looking forward to getting mine
Im definitely gonna pick one up for Christmas
Hope this isn't a limited thing cause I'd love to get one in the future. I appreciate something that ages well. I was talking with a roommate as she was throwing out some things that I love objects that are nearly new and fresh, and that are really old with miles, patina, and stories. Never had the need for a shop apron, but I worked in kitchens for a decade and can echo the sentiment of easy bathroom breaks and the weird pleasure of functionality and comfort. Also reminds me of making an apron for my mothers birthday when I was like 9. I basically haphazardly cut fabric behind her back and asked if she could sew some stitches while she was using the sewing machine for something else.
Ordered!!!! Such a coincidence. I was looking into different ones recently and couldn't find what I wanted. This is exactly what I wanted :)
The best part of this is how excited Adam is about it 😊
That is an amazing price for an amazing (looking) tool. Thank you for saving me from having to make this for myself (which I was working up the gumption to do).
Thanks adam! I ordered the similar shop apron that you suggested in the odb video comments of the shop apron build. and although it works well and has a similar design it was missing some key features that also think are important. So of course I have ordered this one as well from your links below. Super psyched to get it and start using it! Gives me great joy too. Knowing that you designed it and use it also.
I got one for the wife in November 25th for her birthday which is December the 15th, haven't heard anything, but I'm really excited i know its going to blow her mind. Plus she got extra gifts that I had to buy on the fly, she doesn't know I got her the apron. Ill be sure to send a pic of her wearing it at her shop when we get it (hopefully soon)
😃 Awesome! I loved the vid where you created your apron, and I love this apron! I certainly can use this - when I get to a more "permanent" abode I will find a way to add it to my work bench (that's the first project after I move). 😁 Thank you! 💕
Too excited to find I could buy this after watching you design and make it just last week. 😉
Now I can be just a hair less afraid of the big tools. Cheers.
Super late to the party here, but I just wanted to thank you for making this. Being based in the UK though I was a little uneasy about shipping costs and the sustainability of shipping something from so far away. Li and behold, pdf plans for $5? Yes please! I’m already planning a few minor modifications and am looking for local sources of the materials I’ll need. I love that you have the plans so affordable and that this is left handed friendly. The only modification I’m thinking to make in that regard is to flip the 2 hammer loops so that the left one is the lower, but I’ll probably wait until I make the apron to make the final decision.
Very good chance this is going to be my Christmas gift to myself
I love the large amount of pockets. I'm a person that won't wear a pair of pants if the pockets aren't deep enough. I always need pocket space as I easily forget where I set things if I don't keep them close, especially if it's a small object.
Functional and well thought out. That price is fantastic. Great offering Adam.👍
We ordered one for my husband (hopefully it’ll arrive soon). He’s super excited about it and I feel lucky that we got a first generation one. I also think you’re price-point is quite reasonable! Our son, also Adam, is 15 and a huge fan of yours!! We miss you being on Myth Busters but your TH-cam vids are the next best thing. I think it’s great that you have a burgeoning product line now! We will be loyal customers. Happy Holidays to you and your family! :-)
Got my order in after the first round sold out, can't wait for it to ship! Really excited to get this thing on and in use!
Well since the first video came out (and I couldn't buy one from you) I modified one to fit my needs. And it really made me think about what I do in my shop, and what I want to be doing. I think it was such a good exercise, and now I plan to continue wearing the one I made based on your ideas and my own thoughts. Thanks Adam!
Well done sir !
just bought one! thanks Adam!
That's really nice.
Ordered mine the day they were released can't wait to get it!!!
Legend!! 🤘✌️
Where should I sew on my demerit badges?
I might put mine on the front straps.
I believe that there's a sash that's sold separately for sewing your badges to.
Remember at least 15 pieces of flare
I was thinking the same thing.
@Neil Peters The better to hide them.
I actually modified a pair of old overalls to make my own split leg apron inspired by that one day build. I love it! It’s a good option for anybody on my kind of budget.
Thank you for making it so affordable. I've been on the hunt for a similar apron ever since the One Day Build. When I saw this video I expected it to be $300-$500! As soon as I saw the price I placed the order!
I'll be ordering one for sure.
I just ordered one, looking forward to wearing it when I work on my rock crawler builds!
Love my Sailrite Ultrafeed for leatherworking! Glad you were able to use it to make your prototype! Of course I pre-ordered one:)
He used a Janome machine. I dont know why he said that he made it with a Sailrite machine.
Definitely ordering one
Bought one as soon as I saw the post about it on Facebook! Can't wait to have it
